Whenever people ask me what my major is, I tell them that its in business. I can't count how many times someone has questioned, belittled, and just ridiculed my major. People tend to think that a business major is worthless or too broad of a subject to grasp. I've had people tell me that the major is worthless, or that it is the second to last major that wont get me anywhere in life… they’ve called an Art major the worst one to have. CBS News has even listed 8 reasons as to why you should not get a business degree.
But, that simply is not true. I have learned so much as a business major. I have learned how to successfully manage my own finances, how to pitch a business idea, how to create a presentation, and way more than what I'd be able to list right now. I have so much that I want to do in life, and this major has helped in every single one of my desires.
My desires are to become:
- Real Estate Broker
- Lawyer
- Judge
- Supreme Court Justice
This year, I am now in enrolled to become a real estate agent. Becoming a real estate agent will put me on the right path in order to become a real estate broker. I have to take the GMAT in order to get enrolled for my Doctorates in real estate. I also have to take the LSAT in order to go to law school. Fortune.com even called business school a waste of time. But, this is something that I would still want to pursue.
Dean Amy Hillman explains the importance of business education:
After completing that, I am going to become a Real Estate attorney. I will only have 2 other desires that I need to fulfill and then everything will be crossed off my list, in the name of Jesus. This is why I can’t agree with anyone when they tell me that my major is worthless. By the grace of God, I have accomplished so much in such a small amount of time. My journey does not stop here.
