I am an art student, and my job feels like it's set for life. What should I do if I don't want this?

Some people stick to one job for life, feeling they'll be stuck in mediocrity. But even if you're an art student, you don't have to stay in that field.

As an art student, you feel you'll work here forever. Unlike others, you don't want a "golden rice bowl." You also want a different life.

You want to go abroad for graduate school, but you don't have support. This is a strong desire, but others can't know your thoughts. They feel they're right and in charge.

You think you should stop thinking. You're afraid your life will be fixed. It's actually full of instability. Unexpected events could change it.

If you're afraid of change, make a change. When you're ready, you can decide on your career path. You can also explore other options. Take a career personality test. Good luck!

ZQ?

For many parents, a stable job and a stable life are what they expect from their children. However, children often desire more experiences during their formative years and may not want to live a life where they can only see the end.

The questioner is quite playful, and although he is subject to a lot of control from his parents, they have still given him a certain degree of freedom. However, supporting one's dreams requires not only strength, but also a certain amount of luck and financial resources.

One reason for indecision is reliance on parents. If you have a financial foundation, such as studying abroad, and can independently solve financial and living problems, you will have the final decision-making power.

However, when an individual lacks a robust financial foundation or a guaranteed income stream and is reliant on familial support, their autonomy is significantly constrained.

It is therefore advisable to make preparations in advance. Firstly, it is not necessarily advantageous to pursue studies abroad at this time, given that the pandemic is still a significant concern in many countries.

The second thing to consider is the financial aspect. If your family does not provide support, can you afford to do it on your own? After all, you have already invested a great deal, and if something really does happen, it will not be helpful.

It is also important to understand the practical implications of this decision. It is natural for most people to have a playful spirit, but the questioner has already graduated and will inevitably encounter some realistic situations.

In the past, the family provided comprehensive support during one's academic pursuits. Now that you have graduated, it is essential to develop the necessary skills to sustain oneself financially.

Furthermore, the Internet age offers a multitude of opportunities. Individuals can leverage their hobbies to generate income while pursuing their interests, a strategy that offers the best of both worlds.

If you lack experience, you can allow yourself time to gain expertise and gradually adjust your life and goals as you adapt to change. It is important to remember that change is the only constant in this world.

I am a small frying pan, and I extend my love and appreciation to the world.

Parents are not always right, but they are the ones who have to pay the tuition fees. It is only natural that people who spend money consider whether it is worth it.

If you have the financial means yourself, as an adult, they can't stop you from choosing your own path in life.

They've decided on your career, and now you're pushing back against their decisions.

You need to decide for yourself whether you want them making decisions for you and determining your life.

You haven't had enough fun and don't want to settle down, so you avoid work. These two things are different in nature.

You can find a job you like. You're 22, an adult, and can live independently. Life is not easy, but it's worthwhile to be financially and mentally independent and live your dreams.

The latter will make them worry even more about whether your decision to go to Japan is sensible. After all, they worked hard for their money, and they may not be able to spend it to let you go and play without paying attention to your studies. Even if you really want to learn something, their concerns are reasonable given this mentality of not paying attention to your studies and wanting to have fun.

You want to study and you like to draw. You're only 22 years old.

If you really want to learn to paint, your current financial independence does not allow you to do so. However, you can still find many ways and means to continue your studies in depth. When they see your hard work and persistence, they will be willing to change their minds and believe that you really want to further your studies. At that time, as parents,

If you really want to learn to paint, you can still find ways to continue your studies. Perhaps when they see your hard work and persistence, they will be willing to support you.

You're also worried that if you work, you'll be set for life. This is probably because you don't know enough about work.

Not many people nowadays work in one place for their whole lives. If you do, your company may not be around for that long. If you work in the civil service or some other public institution, you can choose to stay there for your whole life. Alternatively, you can get yourself financially secure first and then choose your own dream. Either way, you can quit your job if you want to.

If you have your own dreams and pursuits, you can rest assured that you will receive the financial and spiritual support you need.

Then work hard to earn and save money while also pursuing your hobbies. Learn how to turn your hobbies and abilities into reality and try new things. Your actions and attitude will always be seen. Speak up when you need to, or let them support you.

I hope my answer can be of some help to you.

I am also an art student, and it has been many years since I graduated from art school.

Given the challenges you're facing, it's understandable that furthering your studies might not be the best option at this time. You're keen to expand your horizons and explore new opportunities, but the current circumstances make this difficult to achieve.

I hope the following suggestions will be of some help to you.

Firstly, it would be beneficial to strive for financial independence. It seems that your parents have some concerns regarding the way you spend your money, and they may not fully understand some of your actions.

This may be challenging to change, but you can advocate for it. If it is not feasible at this time, you can set it aside for now. Your parents have just arranged a stable job for you, and you can use the salary from this job to continue to pursue your dreams.

Secondly, work is just a formality, and your reluctance to accept the status quo will not be affected. You may wish to consider using your work time to prepare for the next step in your future plans.

It would be wise to learn how to persevere. It is important to remember that achieving your goals will take time, so it is crucial not to become discouraged by the future. Instead, focus on taking small steps towards your dreams, and with time, they will come true.

Fourth, it would be beneficial to continually enhance your work abilities and interpersonal skills, so that your parents and those around you can observe your excellence, and the decisions you make will be actively adopted by them.

I hope my reply is helpful to you. I wish you the best in realizing your dream soon. Good luck!

Hello, art student. I see the following:

Should you study abroad?

Judgment: living a stable life versus enjoying life and not being able to settle down.

Control and counter-control: strength and weakness.

1. Restraint.

Your family's way of thinking is restricting. You feel powerless and anxious.

2. Your mind is limitless.

You're only 22. I don't know what you want to do, but you have a lot of options.

3. Advantages

You have a foundation in painting. You can become the best painter in your field. What an advantage that is.

Don't think you've seen it all.

4. Don't be rigid in your thinking. Look at things flexibly.

Now that technology is so advanced, there will be plenty of job opportunities. Work is a tool for making money. Your hobbies can also make money. It will be a long journey, with good times and bad.

Every experience is a pearl. When you string them together, you will gain unexpected things.

Dear question asker,

The questioner has expressed a desire to continue their studies in Japan in order to pursue their dreams, but your parents have reservations. This is a challenge that many young people encounter. I would like to offer some suggestions that you might find helpful:

It might be helpful to consider the potential benefits and challenges of pursuing a graduate degree for your parents.

The original poster mentioned that their parents have reservations about pursuing graduate studies in Japan, citing the perception that academic opportunities abroad are often perceived as being merely a financial investment, and that the quality may not always be as rigorous as they believe. It might be helpful to gently explain the nuances of the academic landscape and the value of pursuing higher education in Japan.

The questioner might consider gathering some information, preparing a PowerPoint presentation, and giving your parents a talk about the percentage of art students who go on to graduate school, the benefits of doing so, the advantages of studying abroad, and various relevant materials about the school you want to attend. It might be helpful to convince your parents by citing a few examples of successful alumni from the same school. If possible, you could also give your parents a detailed account of the challenges you might face if you don't go to graduate school and instead start working.

By thoughtfully presenting the advantages and disadvantages of different options with supporting evidence and examples, you may be able to persuade your parents to consider the possibility of you pursuing a master's degree.

And work hard to get a tuition-free graduate degree.

I'm not sure if this is a possibility for art students. If it is, the questioner might consider trying their best to fight for the spot, so that they won't have to rely on their family's support while studying for a master's degree. They could also try to work part-time to cover living expenses while studying. If they are financially independent, they have the freedom to make their own choices, and even if their family doesn't agree, they can still live their lives as they choose, right?

If there is no possibility like the one I mentioned above, then if we really can't do anything else, we will just agree to work. In fact, the consequences of working may not be as terrible as you think. At worst, we will work for a few years, save enough money to study abroad for graduate school, and then pursue our dreams in a different way.

If there is no possibility like the one I mentioned above, then if it really doesn't work out, we will just go with the plan and agree to work first. In fact, the consequences of working may not be as daunting as they initially seem. At worst, we will work for a few years, save enough money to study abroad for graduate school, and then pursue our dreams.

You're young, even if you're not as young as you once were. As long as the future is still ahead of us, there's always room for possibility. If you're currently employed, you have the option to consider a change.

One possible approach could be to work for a few years to gain some social experience while saving up for studying abroad, which might be a good way to achieve two goals at once.

I hope my answer is helpful to you, and I wish you the best.

Greetings.

It appears that your family still has reservations about your decision to pursue studies abroad. This is partially attributed to a lack of familiarity with the academic standards and structures of foreign institutions, and partially due to concerns about the perceived value of these institutions.

Concurrently, they have also facilitated your employment. You have disparate views regarding the continuation of your studies and the pursuit of employment. It is conceivable that your parents aspire for you to secure a stable position, thereby enabling you to establish a settled lifestyle. Subsequent to this, they may encourage you to enter into matrimony and embark upon a romantic relationship.

You do not believe this to be the case. You perceive yourself to still be young and to possess your own ideas. You aspire to pursue a master's degree, potentially abroad, and you may have a preferred institution or country in mind.

The notion that commencing employment immediately will irrevocably fix one's entire life trajectory, eliminating potential for further growth and exploration, is a source of concern and dissatisfaction.

This perception also involves a certain absolutist thinking and perception on the part of the individual. Entering the workforce does not necessarily signify the finalisation of one's life path. Even while engaged in gainful employment, there is the possibility of continual self-improvement and growth. This can be likened to the pursuit of further studies. Many individuals are compelled by economic necessity to undertake self-study examinations while in employment. Similarly, a considerable number of graduate and postgraduate students also engage in such examinations.

Furthermore, during this period, individuals frequently modify their life goals and daily routines. Many people only identify their true interests and the career path they wish to pursue after a period of trial and error.

One might be forgiven for questioning whether such individuals are truly constrained by a fixed life plan. It would appear that there is considerable scope for further possibilities.

It is evident that this is not the case. Some individuals do not pursue their chosen field of study after completing their undergraduate education. Instead, they embark on a period of professional exploration, during which they identify their desired career path and make necessary adjustments to align their career trajectory with their long-term aspirations.

Indeed, numerous individuals have achieved considerable success in a particular field but then subsequently opted to embark on a new path. As long as one maintains expectations and goals, and possesses a sense of direction, it is possible to implement corresponding adjustments and consolidations at different stages of one's life and in response to one's choices.

It is acknowledged that some individuals may prefer a more stable environment. It is understood that each person has a unique lifestyle and a diverse range of life goals. The most suitable option for an individual is the optimal choice.

It is possible to communicate one's thoughts and needs to one's parents. For example, if one's parents are unable to accept the idea of studying abroad, if they are under financial pressure, or for various other reasons, they will undoubtedly have their own thoughts and ideas. It is also possible to show them concern and respect and to try to understand how they feel. At the same time, one can tell them one's own thoughts and plans. However, continuing one's postgraduate studies in China is still the best way to achieve one's goal of studying abroad at one's dream school. If one does not want to start working right away and wants to continue one's studies, there is absolutely no problem with that. One has the right to choose and the autonomy to do so.

Hello, host! I can tell that there's a bit of a conflict between what you want to do and what your parents think. It can be really tough when there's a difference of opinion like this, and it's natural to feel torn and helpless.

I totally get it! You want to do what you love, and you love painting! You also want to go abroad for further studies.

On the other hand, if your parents don't agree, they may not be able to financially support you and may arrange a fixed job for you.

From what you've told me, it seems like your dream might now depend on your parents to come true.

It's totally understandable! You're still young, you don't have your own money, and you want to keep studying. Your parents can help you with that, and they'll understand if you want to keep studying for a while longer.

However, your parents have some pretty traditional views and are a bit old-fashioned. They probably think that a stable and regular job is the best choice, and that painting and following an artistic path are unreliable and unstable. In fact, your parents are also worried about your future career development, afraid that you will suffer, and hope that you can also understand their good intentions first.

From what you've told me, it seems like having a regular job is a tough choice for you. I don't think that's what you want, and I don't think your parents want to see you unhappy either.

I tried to think of a few ways to help you out!

Plan a highlight! Since you need to rely on your parents to fulfill your dreams for the time being, try to make your parents understand what you like.

I don't know what level of drawing you've reached, but you can secretly show it to your parents. It's like making a dazzling debut, letting your parents see your achievements and at the same time making them feel that drawing is different from what they understand. They may think that only by becoming a great painter can you become successful and earn a good income, which is totally understandable! You can draw a picture for your parents, use the money you earn from busking to buy them a gift, communicate with the property management of your community to hold a small art exhibition of your own, etc.

I know it can be tough to find your dream, but you can do it! It'll take some extra effort, but it'll be worth it in the end.

No matter what the result is, stick to your dream! That means never letting go of your paintbrush, always practicing, always working hard. This is more important than the result.

Pay for your dreams! You might still be young and not have the chance to work, so it's important to plan for your dreams and not just rely on your parents. If you can rely on yourself, you'll have one more option when it comes to problems!

In short, first of all, I really hope you can understand your parents' love for you. And at the same time, I really hope you can do your best to achieve your goals! I truly believe that as long as you want it, you can definitely achieve your goals.

Come on, you can do it! The world and I love you ?

Hello, question asker. It's great to meet you.

As an art student, I can sense the passion and drive of the questioner. I enjoy playing and am interested in pursuing graduate studies abroad.

The questioner has his own ideas about what he wants to do, but his family doesn't agree with you.

I was in your shoes at your age, and I had no idea what I wanted my future to look like. I was set on going to college 2,000 kilometers north, but my parents wouldn't let me. I was pretty upset about it for a while, and I was always looking forward to a change of scenery.

I'm eager to experience the thrill of the unknown. I now realize there are several reasons why my parents are hesitant to let me go.

They're reluctant to let me go because of the pandemic and the danger of encountering danger outside. They think it's better to find a job within the province because it's more stable. They also say that it's not as good outside as at home.

These are also their judgments. The questioner said, "They say you can go to university if you spend money." If the questioner can show their parents that they can also get a good education outside, will they agree?

What are the reasons for their opposition? Can the questioner prove their abilities to them? If there's no way to prove and convince them, can you express yourself differently and communicate with your parents more slowly?

It's important to understand your own needs, consider the challenges you might face in reality, create a detailed plan, and discuss it with your parents. We and our parents are from different generations. Even though society is developing rapidly, our parents' concepts are still influenced by the past. Don't oppose your parents, but work with them to solve the problems in front of you.

The questioner's family should be doing pretty well financially, if money isn't an issue. That could help a lot. Given the limited space, I imagine the questioner's parents feel like going to school is a waste of time and energy. They might also be worried about your safety and think it'd be tough for you to live on your own, especially with the current pandemic.

It's clear that they love you and have found you a job. But you're still passionate about your dream and can't accept your parents' arrangements calmly. I support you in pursuing your dreams when you're in your prime, but the decision is yours.

When you're talking to your parents, be careful with your words. Don't hurt your family or yourself. If you have to compromise, think about whether you'll still have the chance to pursue your dreams later on. Is the path your parents have chosen really so bad?

Because times are changing fast, there are lots of ways to learn. If your parents are on board with your dream, you'll need to think about planning and safety too. I wish you all the best in your studies.

? ?

I hope these thoughts help you in some way.

I hope you achieve your dreams and have a happy life.

Dear question asker,

I empathize with your sentiments and circumstances. I am passionate about painting and aspire to pursue my interests professionally, yet my parents hold a contrasting viewpoint. They adhere to a more conventional mindset and prioritize financial stability. Let us examine the matter together:

"I have no concept of living a life of comfort. Perhaps I enjoy a certain degree of spontaneity and flexibility, but I am only 22 years of age."

This is the generational divide between our parents and us. We perceive ourselves as still being in our youth, believe our future is bright and full of endless possibilities, and view the outside world as a wonderful place.

However, parents tend to prioritize stability. Regardless of one's lifestyle choices, a stable job provides the assurance of job security and the prospect of a pension. While the external environment may offer a certain allure, it is not as dependable as one's home.

The questioner's desire to pursue graduate studies in Japan is constrained by familial opposition.

The questioner's concept of pursuing a master's degree is markedly influenced by

The questioner's concept of pursuing a master's degree is a realistic one, particularly given the intensifying competition. However, the rationale behind the choice of Japan remains unclear. It may be advisable to engage in further discussion with family members or to undertake a personal reflection on this matter.

The current pandemic situation is complex and unpredictable, and the risks are particularly difficult to quantify for individuals residing abroad. I have a classmate who has been employed in Japan for several years and has not returned home. While this may not be a significant concern for the individual, it is likely to be a source of concern for their family.

The current pandemic situation is relatively complex and unpredictable, and the risks are even more immeasurable for those outside the country. As an example, I have a classmate who works in Japan and has not been home for several years. From the perspective of their family, they still hope that the questioner can remain close to home.

The argument is often made that universities outside the home can be attended for a price and are all, therefore, suspect.

Ultimately, it is up to the individual to decide whether or not to pursue a particular course of action. While parents may offer valuable insights and experiences, it is essential to consider all perspectives and weigh the potential risks and benefits of any decision.

It is important to note that parents often possess more experience and cannot guarantee the veracity of the information provided by the school in question. However, this does not eliminate the possibility that the school may be fraudulent.

After all, parents have more experience and cannot guarantee that this school is definitely fraudulent. Nevertheless, the potential risk must be considered.

Should you truly desire to pursue this course of action, it would be prudent to engage in a constructive dialogue with your parents to address their concerns.

Should you truly desire to attend the institution in question, it would be advisable to engage in a constructive dialogue with your parents to address their concerns.

"I am uncertain as to the most efficacious method of conveying this information to them, as they are wont to believe themselves to be correct in their assertions."

It is recommended that you articulate your thoughts and feelings in a calm and rational manner, with an open mind to discussion. It is not constructive to become emotional or aggressive if there is a difference of opinion. It is beneficial to strive for mutual understanding and to consider the perspective of the other person.

Parents may come to accept your decision if you present your case in a logical and rational manner. However, it is also important to consider your parents' opinions and take them into account when making decisions that affect your future.

"I am eager to pursue my education, as I have a long-standing passion for painting. Now, I find myself at a crossroads, with my future career path being decided upon."

The decision of whether or not to pursue a particular activity is an individual matter. Those who have already established a certain level of financial stability are free to pursue their interests, but those who are still reliant on their parents for support may be required to focus on immediate concerns and secure gainful employment.

One may pursue one's interests as a hobby, and there is no time limit on doing so.

One may engage in activities that align with one's interests as a hobby, and it is never too late to pursue them with dedication once a certain level of economic stability and resilience is attained.

The assumption that employment will provide a lifetime of financial stability is a common one.

In conclusion, it is evident that the individual in question has the capacity to pursue their interests and aspirations, even in the face of external constraints. The notion that one's career choice should be a fixed and immutable aspect of their identity is a fallacy. As the title owner aptly observed, the individual's age and relative youth affords them the flexibility to pursue a multitude of avenues and to continually re-evaluate their career trajectory.

As the title owner stated, I am still young, so how could I allow myself to become constrained by the demands of a job?

The future is replete with possibilities. As long as one retains a passion for the endeavor and persists in its pursuit, the prospect of a resplendent outcome remains ever-present.

It is my sincere hope that my response will prove beneficial to the original questioner.

It is my hope that my response will prove beneficial to the original poster.
