Some Advice to College Graduates
I’m glad to give some useful advice to college graduates.
(1)First one is that don’t worry about making your dreams come true.
College graduates are often told: "follow your passion" , do "what you love" , what you were "meant to do" , or "make your dreams come true". Two-thirds think they’re going to find a job that allows them to change the world, half within five years.
This sets young people up to fail.(2)The truth is that the vast majority of us will not be employed in a job that is both our lifelong passion and a world-changer: that’s just not the way our global economy is. So it’s okay to set your sights just a tad below occupational ecstasy. Just find a job that you like.(3)Use that job to help you have a full life with lots of good things and pleasure and helping others and stuff. A great life is pretty good, even if it’s not perfect.
Make friends.
Americans put far too much emphasis on finding Mr. or Ms. Right and getting married. We think this will bring us happiness. In fact, however, both psychological well-being and health are more strongly related to friendship. If you have good friends, you’ll be less likely to get the common cold, less likely to die from cancer, recover better from the loss of a spouse,(4)and keep your mental acuity as you age. You’ll also feel more capable of facing life’s challenges,(5)be less likely to feel depressed or commit suicide, and be happier in old age. Having happy friends increases your chance of being happy as much as an extra $ 145,500 a year does. So, make friends!
(6)Don’t take your ideas about marriage too seriously.
(7)If you do get married, keep going with the flow. Relationship satisfaction, financial security, and happy kids are more strongly related to flexibility in the face of life’s challenges than any particular way of organizing families. The most functional families are ones that can bend. So partnering with someone who thinks that one partner should support their families and the other should take responsibility for the house and children is a recipe for disaster. So is being equally rigid about non-traditional divisions of labor.(8)It’s okay to have ideas about how to organize your family but your best bet for happiness is to be flexible.
Think hard about whether to buy a house.
Our current image of the American Dream revolves around homeownership, and buying a home is often taken for granted as a stage on the path to full-fledge adulthood. But the idea of universal homeownership was born in the 1950s. It’s a rather new idea.
With such a short history,(9)it’s funny that people often insist that buying a house is a fool-proof investment and the best way to secure retirement. In fact, buying a house may not be the best choice for you. The mortgage may be less than rent, but there are also taxes and insurance.(10)So, think carefully about whether buying or renting is a better fit for your finances, lifestyle, and future goals.
Hope all of this will help you in the future. Thank you!
