Exploring our own potential actually won't be that difficult as long as we have the will and ability to know what we can do with something we have mastered. Because someone can certainly judge themselves in this matter, especially if they have previously taken a course that can direct them to become better in life, even though some people may still not be able to give advice to others. However, that doesn't mean that some people can't see opportunities and use them well for themselves, because everyone will definitely care more about themselves before starting to care about other people in any case.

Agree. Exploring your true potential, the most important thing is to have the will. Because actually why do we sometimes focus more on weaknesses than strengths. Because we feel unappreciated or humiliated, this makes us prioritize our weaknesses. one of the reasons we prioritize weaknesses is that we don't want to get out of our comfort zone.

To find out our potential. Many people focus on their weaknesses to the point of forgetting their strengths. (The impact: we often make wrong decisions, and are not confident. And often feel dissatisfied with the efforts we make). Many people think that potential is their subordinate from birth, so many people feel hopeless. In fact, one's potential can be explored and studied. For example, when you do something well, enjoy doing something without pressure, and have your own satisfaction when doing it.
But in essence these three things can be learned. The important thing is that you believe you can change and move forward first, then you will discover your potential.

I agree with you, in my environment there are many young people who are trapped in their comfort zone, so they are reluctant to move forward to experience change. even though it is for their own good and not for anyone else's. I think young people today still have a high sense of pride so they are reluctant to take action that triggers change, not many young people have the will to be able to look for new things on their own, many young people today are already at home in their comfortable situation even though it doesn't generate any profit.

Occasionally I have heard "searching for identity" often said by parents who are advising their children or young people who are gathered together. I think that sentence is true, we must live with a purpose where finding one's identity is one of the goals in life. It's true what you say we have to have confidence in ourselves first to be able to change for the better then only then can we explore the potential that exists within us to make changes for the better.

Economics is a good course to study

I am just kind of surprised that someone said Economics is a useless course. I don’t really know why the person said so, maybe if I can hear the reason why the person said the course is a useless one, but all I know is that the Op shouldn’t feel bad, the course is a nice one, which I do encourage people to study. So just keep on studying and don’t be discouraged by what other people say about your course. Study what you have passion for and don’t listen to people.

Some people don’t even know much about what they end up saying, maybe the person doesn’t even know much about the course and decides to criticize it. I don’t even think any course should be criticized because all courses are useful in one way or another.

Everything depends on the desires and potential that exist within oneself.
As the OP said, we have the same opportunity to be able to advise/give advice to others on things that are worth learning.
STEM courses are also very good and there are many choices that can be taken according to your desires and abilities, but my advice is that the difficult thing to find is your potential, so it is important to explore this first.

"Economics is a day-to-day practice and is an easy endeavor made difficult for study reasons", he usually said. Watching the video to the end, I asked myself, "If I had the opportunity to go back in time would I pick another course to study? " And the answer was ..." No". And if I have the opportunity to advise any high school student about courses to choose... I'd say "Economics". The more people learn about even basic economics, the better the economy of countries.

So, if you had the opportunity to advise people about courses to choose In University, what would it be and why?

When I was in college, I had the opportunity to take economics classes. I was a science student, but we were allowed to choose one or two subjects from the arts or commercial fields to supplement our science subjects; while economics is a social science subject, we were primarily interested in pure science. I really enjoyed the course, and it was one of my best subjects in college, earning good grades. Fast forward to my university days, where I studied science and have had no opportunity to learn more about economics until now. The little I knew in the past aided my financial management.

Now that I've graduated from school, finding work in the field I studied has become a major challenge because a lot of work experience is required to even gain entry into a reputable place to work in the country. Looking at my classmates who studied social science and art, they have a better chance of getting hired before me because they are in high demand right now and can get entry-level jobs right away, even if they don't have much work experience. If I could go back in time, I would study a social science course such as economics, management, or art because they are in high demand and have a better chance of finding work quickly these days.

If you're newer to bitcoin / cryptocurrency and would like to join a course/workshop, I know that Andreas Antonopoulos is currently offering a course- https://aantonop.com/workshops/introduction-to-bitcoin-and-open-blockchains/

"Learn the basics of Bitcoin and Open Blockchains from industry expert Andreas M. Antonopoulos. In this course Andreas will walk you through what Bitcoin is, explain how to get and use bitcoin, how the bitcoin price is derived, the transaction timeline and more. While this course is not a prerequisite for any of the other workshops courses, it is designed to give you a solid foundation of understanding for your open blockchain learning.

As with all Pragma Workshops, this course focuses on practical skills training and includes activities like quizzes and/or supplemental materials in every lesson".

Andreas is the number one person who's taught myself about bitcoin and it's inner workings. He's helped countless people do the same. IMO there might be no better one person to learn from than Andreas, so definitely worth looking in to IMO.

More people studying economics will not make a country's economy better. Can you see how many economics graduates there are nowadays? In my country alone there are hundreds of thousands of people every year who graduate with a bachelor's degree in economics, does this make my country's economy improve? No. Because they only study theory and master it, but in practice they are like babies who don't know anything, because economics is not just about theory but how it is implemented which not everyone can do.

for me, considering what's relevant in today society is very necessary before deciding in the course one should study. But I would choose either of these three;
1. Agriculture related course
2. Business related course
3. computer related course
The main reason why I will go for any of these option is because at the moment, being self employed is the best option one can consider now because for most developing countries, most graduate don't end up being employed in the course they studied but going into any of the field above will put you in a better position to use the little knowledge you must have gathered in school I start up something for yourself after graduation.

Are you being honest there? I'm not sure. From the other paragraphs of your post, you expressed a bit of fear and uncertainty studying that course. Why the sudden twist there then? Anyway, it's your choice to make. Ordinary, I would think that Economics isn't such an excluded course to study. It's a day to day thing involving man, his needs and finances. Even those who didn't study it can still take care of their stuff if they're prudent and shrewd. I'm not trying to talk down on that course of study but it's just what it's.

Well, I get what you want to say. The problem with Economics is:

1. Not everybody who studies this discipline learns to effectively manage his own wealth. Consumer society pushes us all in the wrong direction, and students of Economics aren't immune (in fact, they usually are quite competitive, and that leads to the desire of spending more in order to appear successful to others).

2. Those who didn't study Economics but are sensible can perfectly manage their money. The problem is that common sense is not the most common of the senses.

So management has more to do with attitude and early education rather than with a course or degree you study when you're too old to change. Of course, I'm talking about personal/family wealth, if you want to know about macro or micro you have to study.

Learning or taking economic courses is not a bad thing, precisely good. Yes, economics is also a science that we can apply in real life. People/students who study economics will understand everything related to the price of goods and services. Selan too, they will understand how economic standards vary greatly in every region and even the country. So from economics is also very close to its use to life in the real world.
Learning or economic courses will train the parties to directly practice their knowledge in real life. The economy has a variety of valuable skills. Like, skills in critical thinking, mastering literacy in general, gaining insight into the mechanism of state resources and the environment in general, and improving communication and calculation skills. And allows career opportunities to be more diverse. Such as banks, accounting companies, Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Trade, labor detection, hospital administration, and statistics and maybe many others.

Don't let anybody opinion with regards to your course of study demoralize you, Economic is a very good course and I believe the speaker who discourage people not to study Economic should be specific with his advice possibly in his country there might be few opportunity for Economist which prompted his interview, however in my country a graduate Economist can be employ by any bank provided that such graduate pass out with a very good grade and other financial institutions too sought after that profession if the graduate has other relevant certifications that is another big advantage for such a graduate.

I get your point and that's statement is valid, it's going to depend from where the person's location and how serious the economy from that place, it's going to be a case to case basis and advising is something that needs to be relevant to whatever the place and the economy is moving, there's a need of deeper knowledge if you wanted to have some edge in terms of line of business that you wanted to be part with, taking courses that will allow you to enhance your idea will really give you the aid that you need to extend your opportunities.

Plus, if you graduated from certain course the chance of being hired is also your edge, better to balance and weight that statement it's your own opinion and how you adopt the knowledge.

Go for the STEM courses, that's probably the best of them all especially when it comes to an ever changing landscape in terms of technology, you're better off becoming a part of that innovation rather than that of something stagnant, you don't have to worry about anything though as STEM covers a lot of courses so you've got a lot to choose from. Make sure that you want to get into college though as you might not like the idea of being miserable for something you don't want to do in the first place.

So, if you had the opportunity to advise people about courses to choose In University, what would it be and why?

Choosing a course is the most important thing so it's advisable everyone should think carefully before choosing a course, in the modern world when every course seems competitive and without a professional course no one will value your education status.
Economic is not a bad choice but you should consider your society first before making any move, all course are professional courses but sometimes where you find yourself might kill your passion and your working spirit, for example not all course will be of help to the society so the society no longer seek their service while in some country people choose their course base on their ability to handle the course, this is just the right decision, always go for the course you have full assurance of having high grades not the one you can't handle with the learning process.
If I'm to advice anyone in terms of choosing a course I will prefer the medical department and computer science, looking at the world today it seems the world can't move forward without medical doctors and new invented technologies, in essence technology has taken over the world and it's best to be part of the benefit.

Your statement about picking a course based on societal value and personal talent is correct, but simplistic. Doctors and software geniuses are revered, but to think they're the only ones worth pursuing is short-sighted. Economics is basic, not just "not a bad choice" as you said. Understand this: Every course and discipline contributes to society

Not what's valued now but what shapes the future. There's more to it than great grades. Consider what challenges you and builds a varied, resilient society. The world doesn't "move forward" on one profession. Variety and the distinctive contributions of all areas fuel it. Remember to shape tomorrow's world, not today's. Choose wisely, but think beyond the obvious

So, I watched a video recently where the guest speaker said, that if he gets the opportunity to advise teens in high school he would tell them not to study economics, and it made me scared because I'm studying economics. So, it was like... ' Did I make the wrong choice or something? '. Moving further in the video, I realized that what he was saying and explaining had already been said by my economics lecturer before.

Why did you have to think that you made the wrong choice, I don’t know what the person that made the video thinks that made him say studying economics is a waste of time, I won’t say studying any course is a waste of time, every course is having advantages, because other people doesn’t see the use, those not mean it doesn’t have use, so don’t have to be scared or feel bad, just focus on your study, have seen many videos online that criticize some certain courses, but I just see it’s their opinion, and some of those people make those videos just because they are looking for content to post on their social medias.

It's clear that you're really confident in your understanding of Economics, even when others doubt it. Everyone has different perspectives on what they need, including those who say they don't need Economics like you do. I still agree with you... the world of Economics is vast, and the goal of learning is to understand it from various angles. So, you're not wrong here.

And haven't you heard of someone called an Economics Expert? Like Adam Smith. He kept studying Economics even though some people see it as a basic subject done out of habit.

If I were to recommend a major in university, I'd lean towards language and public speaking. My subjective reason is that language and public speaking play a significant role in leadership. But even though our recommendations differ, I see it as a way to complement each other. Because Economics still needs someone to run it.

Indeed, choosing a major depends on each of you, what is important when choosing a major is that you have two points of view, what and who.
What
1. What lesson do you like?
2. What lessons do you actually know from the roots?

Who
1. Who do you want to be in the next 5-10 years?
2. What profession would you like to have?
3. What do you want to work for and as whom?
4. Interested in working for which company?

But of course this economics lesson really changes someone's life dreams, making them enthusiastic about learning. because they know that economics will definitely be useful no matter how long it takes. Yep, it's true, if economics teaches about choosing the best options to achieve the greatest profit and satisfaction with the smallest possible effort, it can create financial freedom in the future.

We need more information about that person and details about the context where he made that statement because having a basic financial education is the most important thing in a person's life if he wants to have stable financial health. The economy is also a part of that financial education so that person is wrong. People have different points of view and the meaning of a statement changes based on the place and time they were mentioned. Sometimes a statement holds a metaphoric meaning.

Instead of fostering unproductive comparisons, we should recognize and celebrate the interdependence of all professions within the complex tapestry of society.

Each profession plays a unique and vital role, contributing to the collective well-being and progress of society. From the critical analysis of economists to the meticulous attention to detail of accountants, each individual leverages their specialized skills to contribute to a larger whole.

Furthermore, these professions are not isolated entities. They interact and collaborate in a dynamic ecosystem, enriching and supporting each other's endeavors. Lawyers rely on contracts drafted by engineers, businesses seek economic insights from economists, and engineers require the financial expertise of accountants. The true value of any profession lies not in its ranking, but in its ability to contribute to the betterment of society as a whole.
