It’s always better to start early, and gain as much experience.
Internships have always been difficult while juggling University where it is required to show up everyday and attend almost all your classes. But the competition these days are cut throat and nothing promising could ever come your way — if you think you could just breeze through lives.
Being respectful that not all situations that every single one of us face are conducive for us to start investing our time for any sort of extra-curricular, but you also need to stop excusing yourself and being lethargic, it won’t ever help you.
You are supposedly at the prime of your age, if you keep up the act that have bailed you away from serious commitment, then you are just downplaying your life. You’d never need to blame it on other’s past action or even current actions, even though you could be right to blame them; it doesn’t help, you’ll just spiral out with your thought, and give power to someone else, that’s a big no-no.
Moving on, let’s ask oneself what they are interested in, and even with what is currently their educational qualification, are you comfortable trying new things? And if you could see yourself trying everything out just once, give yourself a pat in the back and get on your devices, reach out to people and start applying for positions and trainings that could help you.
The more you get exposed to different working conditions is better, you get street-smart for starters, but you also learn what it takes to strive and exist in the market, you learn interpersonal skills and even brush up your communication skills which wouldn’t have happened within your little friends clique.
Thus actively participating in such activities without being nagged by someone would be beneficial for you and improve you, more than anything else.. it could also help proof people that you’re serious with what you’re doing and are capable enough to look after yourself.
The pandemic with all its flaws have provided to accommodate work-from-home internship opportunities to many, which takes off a big load from us, and we can engage in multiple activities at a given time with just a switch of your device screens/windows/slides.
