Just recently passed the first year here in my job.

Tama nga sila na wag na wag mamili ng course dahil "no choice"

[entwife]

^ So yung course mo gusto mo or na no choice ka rin?

[joban99]

haha, very depressing ang mga comments dito ah. :p The first thing you need to do if you dont know what you want is..... Find out what you want! :p Now with all the negative posts that I read, Im sure people will say "easier said than done". If this is what you wanna say or what your thinking than you probly just went here to rant and not really find a answer. Pero if you clicked on this thread to find a solution to this, than just find out what you want. Once you do know, take steps on how to do that. Again, the easier said than done ideology will come into play. If thats the case, than Id recommend you to read just the first habit of Stephen Covey's 7 habits of highly effective people which is Habit 1: Be proactive. Just read that as your first step, itll only probly take you 15-30 minutes to read. So get off this thread now and google Stephen Covey's 7 habits of highly effective people which is Habit 1: Be proactive.

No choice dulot ng pressure

[kwang sun]

naiinis ako kasi usually na work na napupunta sa akin is yung hindi ko gusto... narealize ko din na yung masipag magwork yun usually may utang .( sorry prangka lang ) lol

How about look for a job that you like? It's hard but maybe worth a try. Kasi if you're young, at least in a year or so pwede mo pa icorrect yung mistakes na magagawa mo. At least you try to check what's on the other side of the fence.

[[Sebastian]]

^ ummm yeah somewhat young pa.. problem lang sa mga gusto ko puro need ng work experience

[entwife]

It's never too late to try. Kesa pagsisihan mo that you never tried at all.

Sis so_bloo, I think you should get help, or at least talk to someone who'll understand (and won't judge). I used to be a psych major then shifted to Comm. Personally, I feel like I've screwed up my life and future career. Although my strengths play to my current course, my entire personality still goes against it.

Last year ko na sa college this 2014-2015, but I feel left out. My batchmates are having kids and going places. I am stuck in a rut.

Have you considered going back to school? Get a MA degree. Every sat lang naman madalas ang class.  I think you can improve your chances of getting a fresh start in the field of psychology once you're taking Masters. You'll meet people na fresh grads and practicing psychometricians/psychologists who are active in the field and more so, professors who might give you tips or even help you get you get a job.

Di ko alam kung ano gagawin ko 3 months na akong walang job at di ko alam if gusto ko uli bumalik sa BPO after all the stress that I experienced kaya ako naparesign last yr, ngayon naghahanap ako ng work (browsing the forums for feedbacks) pero I feel na wala ng direksyon ang career ko kung babalik na naman ako sa call center. Napromote na ako dati so I know naman na may napatunayan na ako sa sarili ko pero parang hinde paren enough di kasi ako masaya.

Finance grad ako pero ayoko rin naman sa bangko, so ngayon nganga kasi di ko paren mafigure out ano gusto ko gawin sa buhay.

I heard IT is a good career theyre accepting applicants from non related courses.
The pay is also above average.

[immy]

That feel when you're literally dragging yourself everyday to work because you need money.
That you can't practice what you love doing because your job eats up 80% of your time.
That you can't resign because you got nowhere to go.
And the job you want always demands years of experience or specific skill sets that you're willing to learn but can't because you don't have time.
That you feel like you're walking in a never-ending loop, a circular maze. Nothing new to discover, nothing new to learn.
You're just.... There. For the money.

And then you are reminded everyday that "We are only young once."

^This.

I'm 30. Married. A mom of a 5 month old baby boy. Lost.

I want to resign from my current job and try something different but I can't, simply because of our finances. If I resign, hubby's salary won't be enough. I feel so depressed. I want to pursue a masters degree but just thinking about the fees, I'd rather buy the money for my baby's needs. I want to put up a small business but our savings is not enough. I am praying for new opportunities and that I'll be able to find my passion SOON.   

[kwang sun]

mga sis have you experienced na nagsisi kayo sa course na pinili niyo? lol.. if i could really go back in time , i would've change what i took xD

[wrongmistake]

Parang gusto ko lang magtravel kaso hindi naman pwede kung walang pera at trabaho.

AGREE! HAHA.

[tey_roch19]

Wala na yata akong pag-asa. Sobrang down ako ngayon. 

[tomatostellar]

kakalungkot to be in this phase, ako I have an idea of what I want, pero alam kong if I pursue it, start from scratch. Hindi ko kaya i-give up yung comp and ben ng company that I'm with right now.

[chichi143]
