I've reached a point in my educational "career" where I have to decide what I want to be when I grow up.
When I went back to school, i started with a General Studies program so I could get most of my core classes out of the way and not have to commit to anything.
Then, I finished that.
So, I decided to get a Business Foundations Certificate (another piece of wallpaper). And this December, I will have finished that too.
I seriously need to figure out what I want to be when I grow up.
I've tossed around all kinds of ideas for my future career. I've asked myself the standard questions:
What do I enjoy?
Well, I enjoy working independently, I enjoy leading projects to completion, I enjoy seeing results.
I enjoy working with people, Lean Six Sigma concepts applied to anything as well as the ever changing medical field.
I enjoy criminal law, marketing and helping others.
I don't want a business degree, because i feel like everyone has one.
I'd love to be a lawyer, but i don't want to take another 120 ish credit hours and then lose a case. oh, that would kill my pride.
I'd love to be an OB/GYN as I love the medical field and helping people, however.. again - I'm not interested in being in school for the next 40 years either.
Seriously, I have to decide!!!
I have another blog I'm going to write sometime about the JCPenney pricing structure and why I think they should've consulted me.
Which makes me think... maybe I should be an independent consultant.
But how do you do that?
Bah humbug. Any suggestions?
I belive you would need an MBA.
