4. Say
I know this is a good major
I just have to finish
I don’t know if I can put in the 40+ hours a week to make it
This is a solid career
I’ve thought about wellness but where would that go?
I don’t look like a personal trainer, so no one would take me seriously.
I can live with accounting
Maybe once I get started, I can get to a different department
Health is just a hobby, but I love it

6. Think
She can live with it
She wants this
College is supposed to be hard
Current major=stability
She doesn’t fit picture of ‘wellness’ therefore will be unsuccessful
Family won’t accept departure from their ‘standard’ career options
Accounting=$ wellness= :)
