It was refreshing to have some time to just do nothing and worry about nothing.

He was insisting that one should take one year vacation after graduating from the university. Some sort of a Sabbatical period. Travel or do things that you really love to do before you dive into the workforce. He said people often neglect this human need and just go straight into what's typical - study, work, get married, grow old. In my case, I worked right away after graduation. And I think, for most people, we can't afford to delay work because of the need to earn as soon as possible to support the family. But if we can afford it, by all means, take a break :-)Michellehttp://www.thetamedfox.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8223232618528263303.post-75361131999084909252012-11-03T22:24:35.139-05:002012-11-03T22:24:35.139-05:00I already done most of the list though being engag...I already done most of the list though being engaged, LOL I don't think so.

Getting hired right out of college is a nice affirmation of ego and personal skills, but it may too often lead to a fast and early burn out.

I also like that graduation speech in the Eclipse book,especially the line: "don't be afraid of making mistakes because when you did, you already what's right for you".
