Default Re: Certificate/Diploma/Undergrad/Grad Qualifications

Meanwhile, I drop out of like 3 majors because I didn't like them, but ended up working in a field that has to do with nearly everything I learned and I'm having a good time overall.

I figured that what was important with studying was to get enough experience to reach a point where you have enough knowledge that you can do something about it.

I've shown I had the basics for what was needed and they just trained me at work to fill the gap and everything magically worked out.

I also figured I was mostly motivated by talking with others, having a fresh outlook on how to do things and what could be improved.

I enjoy learning, but I don't enjoy specializing in one thing.

I had to approach studying/work a little differently by indirectly getting knowledge that I thought would be meaningful later on.

They were looking for people with a very specific attitude and I feel like I got lucky more than anything tbh.

Sounds like there's many ways to get somewhere in life.
