It's okay to not really know what you're doing, and just trust your gut. Make the best judgment you can. There's not going to be a syllabus assigned to you.

La historia detrás de esta cita
The Reddit co-founder spoke candidly about the uncertainty that defines life after graduation. He told Carthage College graduates that the structured world of syllabi, assignments, and clear expectations was over. From here on, they would need to rely on their own judgment and instincts — and that's okay, because most people, including himself, still don't know what they're doing. His honesty about the universal experience of uncertainty was refreshing compared to the typical commencement message of confident career advice.
