It is so exciting to be involved in the greatest mystery of all time, understanding the human mind, that it is simply impossible to be bored. Even our students are changing all of the time, so no two classes can ever be alike. The long term impact we can have is amazing. This is very scary at times. I'm always wondering if the class will go well.
Few fields can say as much.
Take advantage of all of the education that is offered in and out of the classroom. Pay attention to your teachers and texts, but don't take them at face value. Don't let anything discourage you from your dreams. Don't listen to people who say that studying and learning isn't cool. Remember that knowledge is constantly evolving so education is not about stuffing facts into your heads, its about learning how to learn.
