whatever your field of choice, DO IT. take a chance! I've failed more careers than succeeded, and I've found fulfillment in volunteer opportunities in fields where I thought 20+ years ago I'd get a degree or job and didn't. the wonderful thing to internalize is that the world is a lot bigger than you assumed it could be, and there are things to do that won't be on any college board's career listing or guidance counselor's radar - things that fill you with a sense of accomplishment that can either lead to more or just be satisfying on their own. shit, nostalgia has proven to to be lucrative, so even if your claim to fame now is a bit part that paid your rent for a year, in 10 years you'll be stupid popular for what feels like no reason! when you're old and turning gray you might be the person talking about how back in the day you did X and your young peers will go "no way, really?" even if it doesn't pan out, you have something in your proverbial backstory that makes you more courageous than people who never tried to get out of their box, a badge for a life well-lived. maybe I'm maudlin bc I'm turning 50 soon but shit, having life experiences even if they don't turn into a 60-year career or an award of merit or a million-dollar salary are still valuable in their own right, and nothing says you can't use that experience to revisit later when you retire or need a new line of work.

this is equally to anon below and anyone else reading. go out there and have some life! seek advice, even if the end result is "I have researched the process and decided this isn't for me." fuck Yoda's do or do not, there is in fact a try.
