I’ll be honest. I didn’t know what I wanted to be when I was 18 (crazy, I know). I also didn’t know what I wanted to be at 25. Now at 32, I’m just starting to scratch the surface of my true calling. Society encourages us to lock into a career path at 18 or 22 because it’s the “safe” thing to do. But in reality, most of us have no idea what we want at that stage in life. It’s like dating. You don’t usually marry the first person you go out with. You meet different people, learn what you like and what you don’t, and ultimately find someone who complements you. The same applies to your career. Each position teaches you something new about yourself and what you value. This is where strategic pivoting comes in. Recognizing when a job no longer serves your goals or aligns with your values, and having the courage to seek out new opportunities that do. It’s not easy, I know. The sunk cost fallacy makes it scary to leave a job you’ve already invested so much into. But it’s better to admit you walked through the wrong door than spend your life in the wrong room. ——— ♻️ Repost this if it resonates. 👤 Follow me (Colby Kultgen) for actionable self-development content.
