Welcome to Uni!

How To Ruin Your Dreams

So, apparently my uni lecturers are trying to make me quit life, and not just in the normal work overload way. Oh no, I have recently had the great pleasure of reading a series of the most depressing articles when it come to job searches. These 2 articles:

The Danger of the Dream Job Delusion

The Passion Trap: How the Search for Your Life’s Work is Making Your Working Life Miserable

have made me question why exactly I am doing this course…

Anyway they discuss how we are all to idealistic and that we will never have fulfilling work, which you know, is mildly depressing but oh well. Actually the most interesting reading we were given in the first week actually related to study. (go figure right!)

The Grandmaster in the Corner Office: What the Study of Chess Experts Teaches Us about Building a Remarkable Life

not that this article was particularly joyful but it did have some handy tips about ways to study and how to apply it to everyday life. (This is for you students).
