It doesn't matter what you choose to do with your life; you'll feel confident in your college path and Debby Downer will come along hitting you with "That's what your degree is?" We currently live in a world where doctors, lawyers, and engineers seem to be on top of the social scale. Every college student strives to be "pre-law" or "pre-med". The truth of the matter is only six percent of the working population are doctors and 1 percent of the working population is made up of lawyers. That means that 93 percent of working Americans hold full-time jobs in other fields that include benefits and high paying salaries. Now, more than ever your degree has come to mean less and less. Numerous graduates end up in different fields than their degree and are still successful in what they do. So when someone starts to go off on the "What are you going to do with that degree?" spiel start by remembering these 10 things.

1. Degrees are not one size fit all.

Most degrees if not all prepare you for a multitude of different fields. An English degree can prepare you for jobs in education, social media, and journalism.

2. Degrees in math and the sciences may be harder but that doesn't make yours worthless.

All fields should be respected evenly. Time and hard work goes along with every college degree.

3. Don't be concerned for me and my "easy" degree I will be able to find a job.

The amount of companies searching for hard working college graduates has increased 5 percent from 2015. With a good attitude, personality and work ethic entry level jobs aren't one in a million. Companies are realizing that younger employees with fresh ideas are the best kind of change in the work force.

4. Doing what you love is one of the greatest rewards in life.

If you want to be a professional food stylist or a water slide tester then do it and don't think twice!

5. Graduating is an accomplishment on its own.

Don't discredit the work that it took to get that loose leaf piece of paper.

6. When doctors and lawyers are in grad school you'll already be in the workforce.

Getting your foot in the door at a great company straight out of graduation is the goal for those with a bachelor's degree. Many companies will even pay for you to go back to school to get a masters degree later in your career.

7. If you're not quite sure what you want to do, getting a more general degree allows flexibility when it comes to a job.

How many people can actually say they know what they want to do with their life? Just because you're in college doesn't mean you have to have it all figured out. Your interests and goals will change numerous times don't be stuck with a degree you hate!

8. Any bachelor's degree has more value than you think.

Studies show that getting a basic bachelor's degree increases happiness, self-esteem and more satisfaction with whatever field you end up in. Getting any degree increases overall mental health, not just job placement.

9. After you find a solid career your degree won't even matter.

How many people do you know have a degree in marketing and a minor in public relations that end up working in insurance... really, in the end, it won't matter.

10. Screw the haters.

At the end of the day if you feel confident in the path you are taking don't let a random comment from some insecure person let your world come crashing down. You can do it and you will be successful.
