What should I do if I am thinking about doing an independent job?

I gave some thought into it and I wanted to be a virtual YouTuber (content creator) and a Vocaloid music artist. But I am not thinking of joining any corporation because I want to do it as an independent profession. What should I do to start off?

How do i overcome social anxiety and fear?

Social anxiety is overwhelming my life and despite trying everything, it still makes me feel isolated at school and affects my studies. I try to push myself out of my comfort zone.I try to push myself, but often end up feeling ignored everytime and everyday, which only deepens my loneliness and my insecurities, especially as the only girl in my class. I find it hard to talk to people, I don’t know why...I also struggle to connect with people I’ve never spoken to, and now, as a school representative, the pressure has only increased, with people telling me I’m not suited for the role as an introvert and i even started feel like I'm not suited for the role because of my social anxiety and i have no confidence. my parents blaming me for choosing this school..but,my school life has been difficult from the start due to social anxiety

How to get better at Acting?

How can I become a better actor? Acting makes me happy and it lets me explore how others think and feel. I also can’t afford much because my family is poor so I also want to get better so I can get a scholarship to a good university.

How can I obtain a scholarship?

How can I obtain a scholarship to pursue a Master's degree in sciences, specifically in biotechnology or any other biology-related field? I'm not asking about the application process or requirements, but rather how I can be competitive. Which programs would be recommended for me, considering that my GPA is between 3.0 and 3.5? My current English level is B1, but I can reach C1 in a short time. Additionally, I would like to know if there are Master's scholarships that accept the Duolingo English Test, though I doubt it. I also have about 15 certificates from Coursera in various fields, with a focus on biology, and I have a passion for learning. Apologies for the lengthy message, and thank you.

Working are to sell yourself and practicing you craft to get peoples attention. Don't think just because you did not get the job that you should stop trying to do better.

How can I overcome imposter syndrome and low self esteem in school and life?

I've struggled my whole life with imposter syndrome and this inherent feeling that my success is tied to my achievements in school. This has led to depressive episodes, low self-esteem, and resentment and jealousy on my part sometimes which I am not proud of at all. I compare myself and either find myself happy about being superior or depressed about being inferior. I regularly try to journal my feelings of sadness, worries, and thoughts and I also try to employ some affirmative strategies but I feel like they don't always work. What strategies can I use to further deal with this problem of mine?

How can I manage stress during times of failure and stagnant progress?

I'm an 18 year old college sophomore majoring in animal science, and I've been really struggling in math based subjects since high school. It seems no matter how hard I study or spend time with my tutors, I barely see any progress and it causes me loads of stress that affects my relationship with my family/friends and a bit of an issue with my other grades, since I'm so focused on improving in mathematics. I want to do better and be better overall.

How do I begin going out on my own when I have absolutely no friends?

As someone who has no friends, I feel ashamed of going out. I know it sounds weird, but it is what it is. It's not that I don't want to have fun and meet people, but I am afraid. I hate that I don't really have friends. I think learning these skills will help me develop soft skills such as communication and confidence, which will help me from a career perspective.

What study tips can help an easily distracted mind manage college expectations?

Like many, this is my first time away from home for an extended time. I am nervous about managing my personal focus and organization skills without support. I look forward to the social aspect of going to college, but worry about managing my studies in a timely manner. I know of support services that my college will provide, but we students still have to be in charge of our time management. Do you have suggestions on managing our daily study habits? Thank you! #study-habits #study-tips #study-skills #time-management #organization-management #stress-management #self-improvement

Is CalTech a reasonable goal for me?

I have a 4.0 GPA and got a 1220 on the PSAT. I’m working on my score to improve the result on my SAT, but I believe mostly it’s because I haven’t taken Algebra II yet. I am taking extra classes during the summer. Am I aiming too high? #california #goals #self-improvement
