It is extremely stressful to try and determine what specific thing a person can do for the rest of their life that will make them happy.

How do you ask an institution or professional for shadowing opportunities?
I am currently a college psychology student. There is a particular clinical institution that I would be interested in doing some shadowing at. My problem is that I'm not sure how to ask if shadowing opportunities are available when I have no prior relationship with the institution. My target institution does not list contact information for specific staff members. The only way I can contact them is by showing up at their location (which I am able to do), or by phone, which are typically for referrals (this institution mostly provides counseling services.) The reason I wish to shadow is to build a relationship with the institution to allow for a possible future internship. I also would like to experience what some of these professionals do on a day-to-day basis because I might end up liking this area of my major. How do I present myself as a desirable shadowing candidate when I'm going in cold? And how exactly do I ask for this type of opportunity?

What are some good places to find inspiration?
I am 19 and have been out of high school for a year. At first I just wanted to work for a while and get my savings account up. Now that some time has passed I find myself under pressure to make some more serious strides towards my future but I don't really seem to have much to work for. Money, freedom, peace, knowledge, accomplishment... It all sounds nice but the only goal I can make with certainty is that I don't want to fail. So where would be some good places to find something to work toward. #career-path #motivation #career-exploration #priorities
