Is my contention that we need better mentoring and career advisers than this. Nothing is impossible, only limits one accepts onto themselve

Often College students complain that their counselors gave them bad advice. Sometimes these students complain that they were put into the wrong classroom, major or the career guidance counselor gave them bad information. Most major colleges and universities have a job placement program and they do a pretty good job of placing between 60 and 90% of all their students in Fortune 500 companies.

But merely being placed in a good job to which you are not suited can be very problematic to your future, not to mention your mental health and stress level. It does not just happen in schools either, it happens with SCORE Business counselors telling small business people they cannot do it or that the business will not work. This also happens with Business professors, telling the students they are not suited for a business of their own.

nts they are not suited for a business of their own.

Is my contention that we need better mentoring and career advisers than this. Nothing is impossible, only limits one accepts onto themselves, and we do not need counselors telling students they cannot do something. We need encouragement to drive commitment so they can. If we push students into jobs they are not suited for or tell them they cannot be what they wish to be that can be a crushing blow.

Likewise telling a small-business owner with business plan in hand that their plan cannot work and that their business will fail can be heartbreaking. Actually this happen to me and I was told my business couldn't work. 15 years later I had franchised my business in 450 cities, 110 markets, 23 states and four countries.
