Power

You have the power to ruin Little League games, picnics, vacations, and outdoor weddings. Technically, there's not a lot of power, because you're not the one actually controlling the weather. You just deliver the bad news.

Power plays a part early in your career. Decide to go after your PhD and you'll open more doors for high-paying jobs. You have the power to make that decision, but not to prevent the rain from postponing an enjoyable game of hacky sack.
