ACP375 Your Journey Is Unique.

by CarlValeri on December 13, 2023

Welcome to the inspirational, informational, and transparent aviation careers podcast. Today I answer listener mail and discuss why you should not compare yourself to others on social media, especially YouTube.
Before we begin a few announcements.

Questions, comments, or inspirational stories please write to us at feedback@aviationcareerspodcast.com or https://www.aviationcareerspodcast.com/contact/

Listener mail:

Are there other resources that I could look into for finding scholarships? I am an Asian male in his 30s married with kids. I noticed there aren’t any scholarships geared toward Asians on the current list and was wondering if any would be added in the next update.

Thank you!

Show Notes:

  • Don’t try to be like someone online. You are who you are and your situation is unique.
  • You are important and your citation is much different than those online.
  • Although it is great to get ideas from others you need to chart your path forward.
  • Not everyone is the same.
  • People will want to tell you what you should do primarily based on their worldview and situation, not yours.
  • That is why it is important to get an unbiased opinion from a career coach or counselor who is willing to listen to your unique situation.
  • Some examples of things you might not know about the person you are following and trying to emulate.
  • Their money situation may be different.
  • Education different
  • Family obligations.
  • That is why you need to take a holistic view of your life and situation to move forward.
  • Don’t try to be someone else, be yourself.
