Furthering Education

From the time I was little, I thought about getting a higher degree. A bachelor's was a given, I wanted more. I flip flopped between a lot if ideas for higher education. I first wanted law school, then physical therapy school, then med school, back to law, etc. The one degree I never thought about getting was an MBA. It just didn't fit into what I wanted. I never really thought that was something that I'd need, and I definitely didn't think it'd be something I'd like. 

However, lately, i've realized an MBA would be an excellent choice. I work in a highly predominant business field, and unfortunately for me, I don't know business. What few business classes I had to take for my major, I learned what I needed to in order to pass the class, and then moved on. I wasn't a fan of business in school, mostly because I didn't understand it. Now, I realize that I need to know business. I am working at a brand new business. While I don't handle the business side of things, I still need to be able to understand what is going on. 

So, I'm going to see how things go for the next year, and if it continues the way it looks to be going, I will start applying for MBA programs next fall. I will go on and get a masters degree. That's just going to add so much more to my already impressive resume. I don't know how I feel about the whole thing, but that's why I have a whole year to ponder and decide. We'll see what ultimately happens, but for now, it's just on my mind.
