One step at a time
Ok, I just thought of something. So, I feel like society pushes the idea that graduate school is prestigious. But I'm unclear as to whether or not it's a good fit for me. And why would I go anyway? Because I want "success" or because I'll enjoy it? I really can't decipher my true motives right now.

And honestly I'm not sure what I would feel if I went. Proud... stressed... successful... trapped to an extent.

And so this leads me to wonder what type of self-improvement I should pursue. The type that makes sense and people agree with? Or the type that lets me develop my autonomy...
