It is very difficult to know what you want until you start working. If you don't know, it's better to go out and experience things for a while. What people don't understand is that it's not just about money, but the quality of life that your job can provide in the end. Ultimately, what you need to do is make your life easier, not more difficult.
24 here, been working for 3 years, still dont know c: , for now I just found a place that is comfortable even if I do not make a lot of money while I look for smth I really want
I'm studying computer science too.I really love it and I'm also good at it. I like your videos, I like to see what kind of lifestyle other CS students have, and when I see someone like you that is trying hard, it gives me a good feeling and encourages me. Good luck. Let's stay focused.
@present7163 I'm considering going this route but I'm completely lost. I mean, how do I get there? There are 2 paths that I've heard of but my high school grades tell me I'm bad at math. It's scary to know that even if I'm passionate about it, if I don't have the skills I risk screwing up my whole life, and as a 19 yo, i have to admit that It's quite overwhelming
I recently stumbled on your videos, as I plan on attending university in Germany, and I have to say I love your videos! I can really see the effort you put into the cinematography and editing to put out a good product. Good stuff man, keep it up
@@maxyoko anytime bro! I’m currently applying to Bremen university of applied sciences, along with a few others (gotta keep the options open) and I want to study business admin, or logistics and supply chain management 🤞🏾
Great! Well done! I am a 50 year old professional, proud of what I have done in my home country Ecuador, South America. I have two sons who are going to study in Germany next year. You are a great example to look at. Really fantastic the way you think and share your knowledge and experiences. Thank you so much, I am sure you help a lot of people.
Hi Max, thank you so much for this video. I can relate so much to this video because I just started my bachelors in mechatronics here in Germany as an international student and I was so hyped up at the beginning but then I realized that it sounded cool but it is really hard for those who do not know if they can imagine themselves doing this kind of work as a career. I have been in a serious deep thinking about my future and what are actually the things that I want to do for the rest of my life with a big smile on my face. I hope I can figure this out soon because I find it hard to find anything whatsoever that my energy go to.
Im seriously hesitating(im living in another country btw and it's different here) i didn't knew what to study bcz im an indecisive person and i hesitate a lot,i can't decide something as crucial as studies until i think and think,so relative advised me to choose English studies in faculty until i figure out what to study so that my time don't get wasted,now i hate faculty bcz it sucks and most moduls are hard,and i don't wanna continue in it anymore,it's been 3 years now and time is going on,i've been going sometimes to faculty in the first years but i've never really liked the classes,it's painful and kinda boring,i want something cool,something innovative,i love anime arts and i wanna study it so bad but i don't have the talent to draw,if i wanna draw,it'll take some time bcz im a complete beginner to drawing,no one really teached me or smtg,tho i didn't understand most of what you've said,but i get your point,just gotta analyze what you want and see what feels right to you.
ive just started my physics degree and im struggling mentally, i dont know if it is because im not enjoying physics or because of other aspects making my life terrible
I actually want to study physics and be a scientist (theoretical physicist) but the pay is not satisfying and I need money for personal circumstances. If I’m financially comfortable I’d definitely do physics. I hope you find what you like.
Hey man I don't know what am i even doing at this point Its so much chaos inside of me i have to leave home in 5 days to go to uni i dont want to go there neither do i know wtf am i gonna do in the future Edit : I took a gap( atleast for now )
Thanks for this amazing video. My father wants me to become a marine engineer and mother wants me to become a doctor they just want me as a new improved self of themselves 😢and here’s me who don’t wants to become both😅
This is quite a tough thing to deal with and going against it is certainly not easy as well. Someone I look up to, Alex Hormozi (multi-millionaire) made an extremely valuable video explaining why he chose to disappoint his parents and go his own way, you might like it: th-cam.com/video/To8jcTDwcxc/w-d-xo.html
Choose the thing that feels right to you,you don't have to choose what your parents wanted you to be,because if you do,you'll not feel good since you didn't want it
SWE sounds like a promising field to be in… i’ve studied that the job gives you amazing job stability, considering that i’m an American citizen living in Cancun. Getting that degree would be massively cheap. I know it isn’t necessary to get a degree to be a SWE but the degree in long term would help me no?
As you said software engineering can be learned without a degree but a program will give you good guidance for the career and the steps you need to take. And you also get an official certificate which is huge and helps out when it comes to finding jobs!
i`m doing a certificate in medical labotory techniques right now, but after this course, i`m really confused of weather i should upgrade by doing a diploma in medica laboratory or join clinical medicine. coz as well i would like to be a doctor. give me some advise please
I have no experience in medicine so it's kinda hard to give you advice on what path you should take but why not do the thing you would actually enjoy and can do as a career :)
I was thinking of studying product design in University of applied science. But I'm not sure if it is future proof or it will help me in making enough money too.
My university degree is basically product design but for digital products. I believe it's a future-proof thing, but you're certainly gonna work a lot with AI. And let me tell you: if you are really skilled you will find a job. So it's all about becoming so good they can't ignore you and at that point AI for example will not replace you because you're working together with it :)
@@maxyoko Thanks for helping me out, I really love to do some creative work, Now I can finally choose a perfect degree program without having any doubt. :)
Was a long road trip for me fiding what I liked to do..teaching .and technology. but is not for everyone. The job salary and rewards (retirement) are not on par with job demand ..on all 50 states ..that's why when a new field evolved last 10 years..called instructional technology came a long fueled my interest ..still ..the rewards of working for a school district ain't there much ..unless I become a main office personnel (think director of xyz department) and that does not sound appealing..im.happy I can marry my two interests..but sometimes we need to think About the end game a bit ..and this is why many teachers quit or are depressed and run with anxiety as retirement looms ..specially for those who's partner fully depend on them or are on similar careers. I wish there was a program that teaches students going from 8th to 9th about career goals ..this includes vocational and technical..sometimes people just can't be a doctor , arquitech, lawyer ..or engineer...I seen plumbers making over 100k easily
Thanks very much for this video dude. I’m in Germany since 1yr and I’m done with my language course. But I’m still confused if studying cybersecurity is a good choice. I like IT but I also like Finance like trading forex etc. I’m so confused
Cybersecurity sounds like a fantastic career for real. I think it'll get more and more important with time (maybe you could also look into Quantum computing) For example, I educate myself about finance on the side but I would never study it because in my eyes it's too much theory and fluff :)
I really wanted to choose a career in quantum computing especially since it’s rapidly growing and I am passionate about learning more about it but idk if I’m welling to suffer for so long bc thinking about it I will end up learning A LOT of physics and it could become unbearably stressful. So I’m rethinking my decisions and would love to have a career in animation and art, but I don’t know much about the job opportunities in that career. Does anybody know how can I know more about the job opportunities? and if this career is highly needed?
Hi, nice video! I studied languages in high school , now I'm graduating in music production but I feel like I should get another degree, I have so many interests, one day I want to study law, next day psychology... Such a mess inside me. Any advice anyone ? I am feeling so stupid.
hey man. id like to go into any branch of finance or it. hell, even a mix of it. what do you think of Management Information Systems as a degree? i am also doing the IT course which is on coursera for free and can get me an IT job as soon as i finish it. im still quite confused whether i wanna do IT or Finance though, cause i like dealing with money, stocks, etc. but i still like almost anything which is related to IT (ion like coding too much)☠
In my eyes, everything related to finance and IT is in demand right now and if you can combine these skills and become really good at it, sounds like a powerful combination!
I started out with chemistry and only best part was university not degree, then i switched to pharm d, as it seemed more practical option but the university now i am in,,, i just don't like it. Little co curricular activities and not a productive environment. And my previous uni didn't have pharm d as a course🙂🥲 now I'm stuck awfully what to do now
Hi Max I hope you're d9ing well. I have a question regarding admission to TUM. As an Indian student with a commerce background in 11th and 12th, which teaches about business stuff, I'm interested in potentially studying at TUM. I'm wondering if it's possible for me to join TUM with this background , and if so, what steps would I need to take to pursue studies there?
i m intrested in mechatronics/aerospace not decided yet but yea so i like failed in science so the school decided to give me commerce stream instead of science stream but i m intrested in engineer feild so is it possible with this background to join TUM
ASK YOURSELF THESE QUESTIONS BEFORE YOU CHOOSE A CAREER: 1. do I like it? 2. Will I enjoy studying it? 3. Is that thing going to be future proof? 4. Does it align with my knowledge and financial prospective? 5. How much am I willing to suffer? 6. What will my job be? (Describe it specifically) 7. How high is the job demand? 8. What quality of life that job can provide? 9. What is my definition of SUCCESS? I wish you all the best 🫶🏻

I did coding in highschool and I HATED it. The one thing I loved in highschool a lot was sports and music and animals
what about a hip-hop class for animals 👀 includes music, sports and animals ;)
Dang, I was the reverse
thank you for explaining I have taken notes
Idk what to do my grades are top but I have no idea what to study and as I’m nearing the end of high school it’s becoming extremely stressful.
Wish you the best, I also struggled with this
I can recommend trying out many different things
