I am a 25-year-old woman who did not finish junior high school. I have no future. What should I do?

Hello, I'm Qu Huidong, a counselor who likes to speak in images.

Thank you for the question.

When one after another leads to a dead end, don't write it down.

The way forward is blocked for them all.

No matter how hard you try, it's all for nothing.

It's helpless when you write each incident down.

When we feel lost about the future,

All roads lead to "academic qualifications are paramount."

Education is not the key to finding a job in all industries.

Many college and graduate students also become freelancers after graduation.

If you want to learn, you can.

A degree doesn't mean you have knowledge or culture.

I've been watching the TV series "Happiness in the Family."

The heroine is happy because she didn't finish junior high school.

We don't have to copy her life.

Her spirit and zest for life are worth learning from.

When we feel like no doors are open to us.

Look to the sides and back again.

You've thought of many ways to get an education.

You can learn more.

Your spirit of exploration

You can find a better development path.

Good luck!

Given that I've been dealing with academic qualifications recently, I may understand a bit more.

In today's world, there are many ways to succeed. However, for most people, a degree is still the most competitive option.

It is possible to get a junior college degree through independent study. You can change your major or get a junior college degree through correspondence courses. It takes about two years to complete the program.

However, the competitiveness of junior college degrees is actually declining. The good news is that you can use this springboard to continue studying. For example, you can take undergraduate or postgraduate exams. Another way out is that some junior college majors can take high-value qualification exams, such as pharmacy or traditional Chinese medicine. In the future, you can become a licensed pharmacist, which is still quite valuable. At the very least, it can provide you with a career. You can also use this certificate to open a pharmacy in the future.

At 25, you're still young, and there's plenty of time to make a change. Many people take the college entrance exam at 30, so it's never too late to start.

If you and the people around you have fewer channels to obtain information, it's a good idea to ask some consulting institutions that specialize in improving academic qualifications to provide you with cutting-edge information. Just be careful and don't be cheated by some unscrupulous institutions. You can consult first, there's no rush to pay, and consult with several institutions.

Good day. I extend to you a 360-degree embrace.

The most common response to your question is that X is not a viable option, and it appears that each of the proposed alternatives is supported by relevant policies. However, these options are ultimately infeasible due to a common underlying factor: the lack of completion of junior high school and the absence of a junior high school diploma.

It is akin to walking into a dead end. Based on the current circumstances, it is evident that there is no feasible route to obtain a junior high school diploma through conventional channels. It is similarly implausible to return to a past point in time to complete the junior high school curriculum and obtain the diploma. However, were it possible to do so, it would be logical to pursue further education at the high school and college levels.

Does the absence of a junior high school diploma preclude the possibility of a future? In fact, this may not be the case.

It is frequently the case that an individual's past does not determine their potential for future success; rather, it is their current actions that shape their future prospects.

It is a common experience to reflect on past actions with regret. Many individuals, upon reaching adulthood, consider what might have been if they had exerted more effort or dedication to their studies. However, attributing the entirety of one's circumstances to past actions hinders the potential for positive change in the present and future.

As the adage states, the objective of life is not to obtain a favorable hand but to transform a disadvantageous one into a victorious one.

It is possible that one is currently in a disadvantageous position, but this does not necessitate that the eventual outcome will be unfavorable.

In light of the aforementioned, it can be posited that the past is solely a representation of the past and is thus incapable of representing the future. The future, however, is contingent upon the actions undertaken in the present.

If one assumes that one is destined to remain illiterate due to having dropped out of junior high school, then it is likely that this assumption will prove to be accurate.

However, if one leaves the past behind and focuses on the present, the future will be full of possibilities. It is important to remember that one is only 25 years old, a relatively young age at which many opportunities remain.

It is noteworthy that the celebrated writer Shen Congwen only completed primary school but went on to become a university professor, a distinguished literary figure, and even married his female student.

Shen Congwen is a somewhat distant figure; therefore, it may be more illustrative to consider an individual with whom we are more familiar, such as Li Ziqi, an "internet celebrity" with nearly 10 million followers on external networks. Upon researching her background, it became evident that she did not complete her high school education, and there is some uncertainty regarding whether she even finished junior high school. Nevertheless, these circumstances have not impeded her creative pursuits and subsequent success.

As the adage states, these are the worst of times, and they are also the best of times. The most unfortunate aspect is the rapidity with which circumstances are becoming unmanageable, while the most beneficial aspect is that it provides all individuals with an equal opportunity to thrive.

It is unclear what your circumstances are at this time, but it is recommended that you consider your desired life trajectory. For instance, what kind of person do you aspire to be in ten years? Once this has been established, it is possible to identify the steps required to achieve this goal, as well as the actions that can be taken in the immediate future.

In conclusion, the past does not restrict the future, and thus, it is imperative not to impede one's future potential. It is essential to commence from the present and ascertain what can be done now, for instance, reading a book and acquiring knowledge.

I am frequently a Buddhist and a pessimist, an intermittently positive and motivated counselor, and I express my love for the world.

Greetings, inquirer. It is akin to beholding a friend in person when one sees their handwriting.

The X in the lines indicates that you lack a junior high school diploma and are too young to advance in your chosen field. I can sense your desire to work hard, yet it seems futile, akin to striking a piece of cotton with all your strength, leaving you helpless. I extend a supportive embrace from afar.

Education is one potential route to success, though there are numerous alternative avenues. Therefore, if one has not yet completed junior high school, it is unwise to attempt to continue one's studies, enhance one's abilities, or obtain a diploma, as this will not only be futile but may also exacerbate one's distress.

It is advisable to combine your interests and consider your aspirations and capabilities. It is possible to excel in any of the 365 professions, such as chef, pastry chef, baker, driver, etc., provided that one is willing to work hard. Those who are in good physical condition may wish to consider an assistant coaching role at a basketball training institution, which could lead to the position of head coach or other roles within the industry. Many jobs place greater emphasis on ability than qualifications. Those who lack formal qualifications can compensate for this by demonstrating their abilities.

It is not advisable to fixate on attaining a diploma or a high-paying job at this juncture. While there is no clear distinction between high and low-paying jobs, it is prudent to secure a position that can sustain your livelihood for the next two years. The key is to identify avenues for self-improvement and to develop a skill that aligns with your aptitudes. The advent of the internet has made it easier than ever to access a wealth of information, making it possible to learn anything with the right motivation. With the right mindset, it is possible to overcome any obstacle.

Do not dwell on your shortcomings and use them as excuses for a mediocre life. At 25 years old, youth is your greatest asset, and your dreams are your driving force. Moving forward with your feet firmly on the ground is the key to your life. Success comes with hard work!

It is my sincere hope that I have been able to provide you with some assistance. I wish you the very best in your future endeavors.

Dear Question Asker,

It is challenging to provide comprehensive advice on academic planning in a limited word count. Nevertheless, I am available for further discussion and will assist you in exploring additional options when you experience setbacks or confusion.

The future is in your own hands, not in the hands of others.

When I initially encountered the subject matter of your inquiry, I was compelled to respond. I was intrigued by the notion of a young woman in the prime of her life expressing such a despondent sentiment as "I no longer have a future." I conducted a thorough review of your primary text and discerned that you are not, in fact, resigned to abandoning your future. Instead, you are actively seeking a constructive resolution and striving to identify avenues for advancement within the limits of your knowledge and capabilities.

You have experienced significant setbacks, and when things did not work out, your self-esteem and motivation were negatively affected. It required courage to start again. While the details of your activities between the ages of 15 and 25 are unclear, it is evident that you did not choose to "lie down" and that your decision to drop out of school was not a misstep. This demonstrates your ability to take control of your life and shape your own future.

In a diverse society, skills are of greater importance.

Your sister is a high-achiever, having gained a place at university. However, this does not necessarily guarantee her opinions are always correct. Historically, it was believed that there were 360 professions, with the potential for anyone to become a master in one. However, with the advent of technology and the evolution of society, this is no longer the case. If we were to attempt to quantify the 360 professions, it would be challenging to identify them all.

There are numerous occupations that were not considered in the past, such as beauty and nail care, live streaming, food blogging, delivery, online car-hailing, organizing, pet services, and many more that are likely to emerge in the future. The key is to identify a skill that aligns with your interests and commitment to learning, and to develop it over time to become a valuable skill set for self-employment.

If you are unable to alter the circumstances, consider a different approach.

Pursuing further education may result in feelings of regret and disappointment. You have attempted numerous strategies to resume your studies. After years of unsuccessful efforts, you have reached a pivotal point in your life at the age of 25. Continuing your education is a viable option, but if you are unable to make progress at this time, you may also choose to alter your approach and create your own path outside the traditional school system.

In addition, I would like to provide you with some information for your reference. In recent years, the state has launched free or low-cost vocational skills training in many cities, and there are even subsidies for participating in the training. You can call the local social security bureau (12333) or log in to the official website of the Ministry of Human Resources and Social Security to inquire and view.

Thank you for your interest in our services.

I hope the questioner will persevere and not give up, and that he will fight for a wonderful future for himself.

Hello, question asker!

You have made a great effort to obtain a degree, and I admire you for it. Your persistence will serve you well in the future, I am sure. A degree is just one way to prove yourself, and there are many other ways.

You are a smart and hardworking girl. You will find a way to improve your education, or you will find another way. You know what you need, and you will get it.

I don't have much experience in education, but I do have a suggestion: find friends in similar situations and share experiences. Support each other.

A degree is a certificate, but it's not the only thing that matters. We can prove ourselves through our actions and practical achievements over time, not just with a piece of paper. In real life, there are actually many people with low academic qualifications who still have high incomes. How did they do it?

We can learn from this.

I believe in your choice, come on!

I'm a photo-loving Kacat, and I'm certain the above information will be helpful to you. The world and I love you!

Dear questioner, My name is Wen Jianchun, and I'm a national second-level counselor and a listening therapist at Yixinli.

First of all, you feel that graduating from junior high school has indeed put a lot of pressure on you, not to mention the fact that you are a motivated and hardworking person. It seems that even the direction of our efforts has been taken away from us. Nowadays, bachelor's degree holders are everywhere, and the reality is really cruel. But don't let that get you down! There are plenty of other options out there.

Second, graduating from junior high school does not have to be a negative in our lives. In fact, it can be a great stepping stone to success! Take my hairdresser, for example. She's been working for ten years and has now bought a garage!

Guess what! She's under 30 years old. And there's another example I'd like to share with you. My beautician is 35+ years old. Through sheer hard work, she and her husband bought two houses and paid off the mortgage on both. And they're currently paying off the mortgage on a third!

I absolutely believe that a junior high school education is not a problem. You can absolutely achieve the life you want by taking the path of a technician! There is no hierarchy in occupations, and we all pay for it with hard work.

It's a standard, and it's a great one! Do you like it or not?

Finally, I would also like to say: If you just want to achieve your life goals by studying and improving your qualifications,

Then you can choose again from the major you chose in the exam. For example, Chinese is a great choice if you want to be practical!

The possibilities are endless! After studying, you can submit articles to websites, plan copywriting, work in advertising agencies, etc. These are just a few of the many future career options you can pursue. Another popular and exciting option is to become a writer of online novels, which has also become very popular recently.

It's a great idea to major in something practical! And you can choose your favorite major when you go back to school. This way, you can first update your qualifications!

Your current situation may seem to negate your sense of worth, but you have the strength to look outward!

For example, coming here to find answers is a fantastic way to solve problems! Don't limit yourself—there are so many possibilities in life. I'm sure you'll be able to get rid of your worries soon!

Dear questioner, My name is Yang Yiqing, and I'm a listener on the Yixinli platform.

I'm sorry to hear you're having difficulties. I'd like to offer you my support and help in any way I can.

In your question description, you mentioned eight potential challenges, but you still haven't given up and have come here to ask a question, which shows that you are still striving for and persevering in your heart. This is a testament to your perseverance and aspiration for a better life. First of all, I would like to commend you for your admirable qualities.

If I may, I would like to suggest that we take a moment to examine your current challenges and explore ways in which we might be able to assist you in finding effective solutions.

1. "Nowadays, at least a bachelor's degree is required."

This sentence comes from an undergraduate sister of yours, and it makes you feel that she is right, that things seem to be just like that, and that this sentence is like the last straw, crushing all your positive and enterprising efforts. Here, I can see your confusion and unease, and even a little despair, feeling that you may never be able to live the life you want in this lifetime.

I want to reassure you that things may not be as bad as you think.

Perhaps it would be helpful to reflect on this sentence: What happened to those who attended junior college? What kind of life are they living without a bachelor's degree?

Secondly, it would be beneficial to consider the differences between the lives of those who have graduated from high school and those who have obtained a college degree or a bachelor's degree.

Could it be that those with low educational levels are not as disadvantaged as we might think?

I would like to suggest that all time and experience are valuable. While some may have pursued an undergraduate degree in place of their youth, others may have had a different kind of youth, and the experience of youth is a unique treasure for all. I believe that although you may not have a junior high school diploma, you have experienced a richer array of life experiences than others. This is your unique growth value, and it is a gain that is not the same as academic qualifications.

I believe that making the most of what you have, rather than pursuing what you cannot have, is one of the most important and critical choices you can make. It is also a reflection of your unique individuality.

2. "No future"

You mentioned that you felt the electronics factory wouldn't hire you either, which made you feel like even the most basic job was out of reach and that your future was uncertain. Do you think that your future might lie in an electronics factory?

I'm not here to judge whether these thoughts are right or wrong. I hope you'll find the answers on your own. I'm happy to share some clues for analysis if you'd find them helpful.

Could I ask how this idea came about? I'd be really interested to know why you think that way.

Could it be that your elders and friends have influenced your perspective on this matter?

Perhaps you could consider where this idea came from? Thinking about the origin of this idea may help you to break free from your mental prison.

I would be happy to discuss the idea of a "cage of thought" with you. It seems that almost everyone has their own cage of thought, which can limit our thoughts and actions and make us feel that the boundaries of the world are difficult to overcome.

Perhaps the purpose of education is not just to obtain a degree, but also to break out of the limitations of our current stage of development. If we can transcend these limitations, we may find a broader perspective on life.

From your description, it seems that your ideological prison may have its roots in "academic suppression," but it's possible that the deeper reason is "low self-esteem." You may have heard a lot of comments about the importance of academic qualifications, etc., and these comments may have led you to feel inferior, as though you are not as good as others unless you obtain the same academic qualifications as others.

3. Could I possibly inquire as to how?

It seems that your academic qualifications have become a source of obsession and a kind of prison for you. How might you find a way to break out of this mental trap?

I would like to suggest the following books for your consideration: Adler's "Inferiority Complex and Transcendence," Wu Jun's "Knowledge," and Zhou Ling's "Cognitive Awakening."

I believe that reading the first book could potentially bring about a breakthrough from the inside out, which might help you to gain a deeper understanding of how things happen.

The second book may offer you a broader perspective on life and introduce you to more possibilities.

The third book will offer guidance on how to embrace change and embark on a path of awakening.

2. Consider embracing a lifestyle of self-awareness.

Your unconscious perception may be seen as a manifestation of what could be called a "thought cage." With the reflective ability of "self-awareness," you might consider reflecting on your unconscious thoughts and actions as I have provided clues above. Through conscious thinking and verification, you could potentially approach the truth and reality in a way that is infinite.

At this time, you may find that you are able to draw on a source of strength from within. When this strength emerges, you may come to understand your own capabilities and realise that you do not need qualifications to support them.

At 25, you are still young and have many infinite possibilities. Perhaps you could consider showing your good qualities, your perseverance, and your yearning for a better life. You might also think about rethinking the wealth you have, using your wisdom and extraordinary experience to break the cage of thought, and living a different and wonderful life. You deserve all the good things!

The road to growth is challenging and requires time and patience. I hope this is the beginning of your journey and wish you all the best.

If there is anything I can help you with, please do not hesitate to ask. I am here to support you and the world is here to support you too!

Everyone is a beacon! When you ask a question or answer one, your words can illuminate the hearts of many people. This is the amazing power we share!

Hello, I am Xin Tan, Coach Fei Yun. I feel your loneliness, helplessness, despair, and pain. "It's raining cats and dogs," and you've been hit by every misfortune. But, there's a saying that I love: "As soon as I burn incense, Buddha adjusts his butt."

Let me give you a warm hug and feel sorry for you for three seconds because the next second you will start to get lucky! Let's take a look at the problems that trouble you.

What we really want to focus on is how we can overcome those restrictive beliefs!

It's so sad when people blame fate for all the unfair things that happen to them. But when you really think about it, it's not the "opportunities," "requirements," "standards," "policies," etc. that bother you. It's the "restrictive beliefs" that fill our hearts.

Let's take a look! Behind the dozen or so dead ends is the belief that "only higher education is the only way out," which supports your conviction in this view.

All roads lead to Rome, and there are more than three solutions to everything! People should not hang onto a crooked tree. These all tell us not to be obsessed with one path or one idea.

There is absolutely nothing wrong with being "persistent" and "focused." Just make sure you're heading in the right direction! The harder you try, the more mistakes you will make. But that's all part of the learning process!

The sentence "I have no future because I didn't finish junior high school" confines you to a small, inferiority-ridden space: I'm unworthy, I'm not worth it, I'm a failure, I'll never amount to anything. But you can change that!

Just imagine for a moment that you could change your perception and way of thinking earlier. You could say, "I was exposed to society earlier than my peers," or "I have accumulated more social experience," or "I have more options besides academics," or "My life has more possibilities."

My dear, you have the power to limit the possibilities of your life, but only if you let yourself. At the age of 25, it is a beautiful age full of dreams, and you should have the dream and realize it. Why not start over now?

Find something you love, or start a new hobby! The internet is full of possibilities. There are so many paths to success, and school and college are just one of them.

? 2. Have a positive and optimistic attitude towards all that life has to offer!

"A positive person is like the sun, shining brightly wherever they go; a negative person is like the moon, which looks different on the first and fifteenth of the month."

The great news is that we can adopt either optimism or pessimism as our pattern. The difference is where we focus our attention.

When we focus on what we don't have, it will generate complaints and negative emotions, accompanied by unhappiness, disappointment/loss, and even despair. But when we focus on what we do have, it will generate gratitude and positive emotions, accompanied by happiness and joy!

When we focus on what we already have, it will generate gratitude and positive emotions, which are accompanied by happiness and joy!

The great news is that since optimism, pessimism/gratitude, and complaining are our modes, they can naturally be changed through learning and training. And the best way is to convert energy!

Just be grateful, and your will is there, and the energy will follow! Express gratitude for what you already have. Imagine if you gave money or goods to a beggar, and he complained. Would you be willing to give him alms again next time?

If he is grateful, you'll definitely want to help him out!

And there's more! Nature's law of attraction states that the more grateful you are, the luckier you will be; the more you share, the richer you will become.

I'm so excited to tell you about these amazing books: "Growing Up for Life," "The 10,000-Hour Rule," "Less is More," and "The Road Less Traveled." They're not just your typical feel-good reads — they're life-changing! They'll help you open your mind and see endless possibilities in your life.

The reading club section of the Yi Xinli platform has so many incredible books! If you have time, read more. Learning can nourish our spirits, elevate our thoughts, and grow our lives.

I really hope the above is helpful to you! And I just want to say that the world and I love you! ??
