#students #university #careers
Deciding what school or
university
 is one of the hardest things to do as a student, thinking of what major you will get, either to get a better
career
 in the future or not. To have a better salary it's not
of
Change preposition
about
show examples
 what you get in college but it is about hard
work
 and perseverance. I personally disagree with
this
 notion.
Firstly
, when a kid choose his major in the educational institution not just because he wants to have a good income in his
career
 but because
that is
 his passion and dream.
For instance
, a student wants to get arts but because nursing is in demand and you will get paid higher, he rather choose that major
instead
 of what is he really like.
Moreover
, in a long run, if you don't like your major you're taking, when you face challenges, you will simply give up, you will not persevere because
that is
 not your passion, though it will give you a good salary in the future it will not give you joy.
Secondly
, hard
work
 is the key to success and better income or salary. It is not because you came from a
university
 or have a major but because you
work
 hard. Many successful individuals do not have a major to any
university
, for ,example Jack Ma, is one of the
billionaire
Change to a plural noun
billionaires
show examples
 in the world, he attains that success because he believed in himself and
work
 hard to get his dream. Getting a major in a
university
 is one of the steps to your
career
. To conclude, choosing a major in a
university
 is crucial but it does not mean it will give you assurance for a high-paying
career
, hard
work
 and perseverance is the important factor of everything.
