Cliches exist for a reason

Now that most of my friends are a few years away from graduation, people are thinking about what they will do and who they will be in the future. From what I've seen, we probably couldn't even imagine what we'll be doing when we're older. People change careers or get more advanced degrees all the time. Do you feel unprepared for your future job? Maybe it's because you are. Certainly I haven't learned everything about pharmacy in my 3 years of study so far. Cliche #1: You are always learning. Malcolm Gladwell wrote about the 10 000 hour rule in his book Outliers. Basically, you have to do something for 10 000 hours to do it really masterfully or to become an expert. The 10 000 hr rule is an indicator of 2 things: Cliche #2. practice, practice and more practice and Cliche #3: time flies when you love what you're doing. There's something worthwhile in every job. Find what it is and maybe, just maybe, you'll want to spend 10 000 hours doing it. At the very least, spend the 10 000 hrs outside of your job on a hobby or something (I'm aware you've probably accumulated the 10 000 hrs on video games already).
