You don’t have to pick one passion. Learn philosophy. Paint. Write. Build things. Study the stars. Disappear into the woods for a while. Then get obsessed with something completely random next year. A single lane is for cars, not for people. Chase a life full of curiosity.

How can universities protect their students from this situation? A lot of the students are between the ages of 16-21. The institutions could try to put some measures in place to protect them. If they are not graduating and it’s an obsession because of a group. They should step in.
