❇️Passion Projects vs. Hobbies: What Colleges Really Want You've probably heard the buzz around "passion projects." But what sets them apart from hobbies? And why do colleges care? College Admissions Mastermind Workshop: What You MUST Know! 🤯 August 24 2024  10:00 AM Central ⬇️Register NOW! https://lnkd.in/ed4GEViV ❇️Hobbies are often enjoyable activities done for fun and relaxation. 💪Passion projects are more purposeful, often showcasing initiative, problem-solving, and dedication.

🌟 You are just a few steps away to make it happen! 🌟 It was an ordinary day, and I was heading back home. Suddenly, I spotted stage performances and a college event taking place on the same campus, but at neighbor college SPCE, while my college is SPIT. I questioned myself to assess my confidence level. Without a second thought, I asked a team if I could join the event and perform. They allowed me in. Suddenly, I found myself in front of a completely unknown crowd. While everyone else seemed to know each other, I felt like the outsider since I came from a different college. It was definitely a challenging situation. Despite this, I noticed that my fear level was only at about 10 to 20 percent, which is quite low, and my confidence was at its peak. This realization was truly empowering. This challenge taught me to conquer crowd and their love, boostup the confidence, take steps, and always strive for improvement on a daily basis. It made me think about conquering the situation and trying out new things. We are just a few steps away. Perhaps ONE STEP AWAY? #ConquerFear #GrowthMindset #newexperiences

My college life has been a roller coaster of Emotions!!!🎢 I have less than six months left before graduating.👩🏽🎓 •In my first year, half of it was on Zoom meetings👩💻 and the other half in person. •My classmates were polite and friendly to each other. 💔Our expectations of college life were shattered when we realized that it wasn't like the movies. In the second year, •Big changes happened. Friend groups fell apart, and people were not as nice as they seemed. Friendship breakups were common, and it was difficult to trust anyone. •Now in my third year, everyone is busy preparing for their future and avoiding drama. •Academics are also responsible for the emotional roller coaster. •In the first year, subjects were easy, and we could cover the syllabus the night before the exam. However, this created bad habits that were hard to break in the second and third years when the syllabus was heavy, and assignments piled up. 📌Regular studying is essential to maintain grades! •With only a few months left, I am looking forward to new experiences and hoping to have some good things to share about college life. •Wait!! Don’t forget to tell me about your experience with college life! #collegelife #graduation #friends #study #assignments #collegetips

Here are some common reasons why you or someone you know might not have secured that desired scholarship yet: 𝐒𝐞𝐥𝐟-𝐃𝐨𝐮𝐛𝐭: You don't apply because you believe you can't possibly win. 𝐋𝐚𝐜𝐤 𝐨𝐟 𝐃𝐢𝐫𝐞𝐜𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧: You are unsure about which program to apply for. 𝐎𝐯𝐞𝐫𝐞𝐦𝐩𝐡𝐚𝐬𝐢𝐬 𝐨𝐧 𝐆𝐫𝐚𝐝𝐞𝐬: You think your grades are too low to compete. 𝐈𝐧𝐝𝐢𝐬𝐜𝐫𝐢𝐦𝐢𝐧𝐚𝐭𝐞 𝐀𝐩𝐩𝐥𝐢𝐜𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐬: You apply for every scholarship you find, regardless of fit or eligibility. 𝐑𝐞𝐬𝐢𝐥𝐢𝐞𝐧𝐜𝐞: You give up after receiving admission without a scholarship. 𝐂𝐨𝐦𝐦𝐮𝐧𝐢𝐜𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 𝐆𝐚𝐩𝐬: You struggle with how to properly email professors or potential sponsors. 𝐔𝐧𝐩𝐫𝐞𝐩𝐚𝐫𝐞𝐝𝐧𝐞𝐬𝐬: You are unsure about how to effectively prepare application documents. 📍 𝐂𝐡𝐚𝐧𝐠𝐞 𝐁𝐞𝐠𝐢𝐧𝐬 𝐰𝐢𝐭𝐡 𝐌𝐢𝐧𝐝𝐬𝐞𝐭 The first step toward turning these situations around is a shift in mindset. Believing in your potential and the possibility of success is crucial. If you preemptively decide you will fail, the battle is lost before it even begins. Transforming your mindset from "I can't" to “I can” or "Why not me?" can dramatically increase your chances. Start by addressing each of the points above: 𝐄𝐝𝐮𝐜𝐚𝐭𝐞 𝐘𝐨𝐮𝐫𝐬𝐞𝐥𝐟: Learn about the scholarships for which you are a good fit. 𝐈𝐦𝐩𝐫𝐨𝐯𝐞 𝐨𝐧 𝐒𝐭𝐚𝐭𝐞𝐦𝐞𝐧𝐭 𝐨𝐟 𝐩𝐮𝐫𝐩𝐨𝐬𝐞 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐂𝐕: Enhance your application documents through workshops, mentor feedback, and diligent practice. 𝐏𝐞𝐫𝐬𝐢𝐬𝐭: Remember, resilience is key.

🔍 My random observations during my college days. But real facts! 1️⃣ Number of students spending ₹ 1000+ to attend concerts >>>>>> number of students enrolling in a course for ₹1000. 2️⃣ Number of students enrolling for that course >>>>>> number of students actually putting effort and learning from it. 3️⃣ Students learning just for sake >>>>>> Students actually learn skills and leverage them too. Your thoughts? 👀 As I reflect on these observations, I understand the importance of intentionality and purpose in everything we do. Likewise, when someone asks me how was I able to do all the things that I did in college - I have a very simple 3 pointer for them ⭐ ✅ I trusted myself fully when no one else did. ✅ I didn’t waste a lot of my time on ideation but execution. ✅ I always prioritize education, and do it all by myself till it's possible. That’s it. Try it out. I am always here to help you :) #career #college #growth
