You don't always know what you want at the beginning of your career. If you do, you are fortunate. But if you realize that you are not working in a field of interest, or working at a job that you love, or running a business that you can grow and grow with, then make a change. Your world will not end. Find the thing that stimulates you, the thing that motivates you to think bigger, the thing that gets you to execute on a grand scale and the thing that you can’t wait to tackle every morning. All that you’ve done so far was not earned in vain. Leverage those skills that you’ve gained along the way and use them to kill it at the thing that makes your heart sing.
