Major in what YOU want, not what parents or counselors encourage you to do. Even if it means backpedaling and taking other classes. I let my father pressured me into remaining an art major because he didn't want me staying in school another semester or two that I would need to in order to...

Ok, you've sold me. I'm downloading Dwarf Fortress now.

I avoid leading, and would rather not lead, but I have often found myself leading only because others are too intimidated or lazy to step up to the task. I am not particularly good at leading, but I am fairly good at making things happen, and delegate tasks such as people-management and...
