Lately it seems as though I spend a big part of my days pondering what to do with my life. School's up. What am I going to do? The question doesn't scare me like it used to (or so I think, as of now). My biggest task was to decide between 2 paths: pursue an "adult" career paying big bucks and be miserable OR struggle doing something I like that ( Read more... )

I still worry what I'm going to "do with my life". Occasionally I ponder doing something completely different, but as always I worry I won't make any money doing it, or I won't be any good at it. I stay in my current job because it's comfortable - I don't hate it, and it pays well. Horrible thing to be doing, taking the easy path.

Something that struck me last week though - a friend of mine at work, in her mid-30s, has just decided she's going to uni to study what she's always wanted, and is changing careers completely. So, at least I know there's no instant rush to figure it all out =D

(I would make up a position called the Grumpy Dugong)

The Grumpy Dugong sounds dirty. Haha

You're right. There is no rush. I have all my life to figure it out, and yet, I can't help but feel rushed. I dunno. Since I wrote this I spoke to a good friend on the phone about this very topic. In regards to getting a corporate job she was blunt and said, "Well sometimes you just have to stick it out for a while." She might be right. I just want to go through life enjoying it, instead of constantly evaluating and second guessing my decisions. Sigh.

I got the corporate job, and I'm still second guessing almost every day. I think everyone does it, unless they do find that magical "pays-the-bills-and-is-enjoyable" job.
