Choosing the right career path is a common concern for people between the ages of 15 and 30. Why is it so important?

Well, our career often becomes a significant part of our lives, and the choices we make can affect our happiness and fulfillment.

To answer this question, you first need to understand yourself. This includes recognizing your skills, values, interests, daily habits, and behavior patterns. It's like creating your unique player card.

Why do I call it a player card? Because life can be seen as a game where we all start with the same potential, but we develop differently based on our choices and experiences. Every choice we make, every interest we pursue, and every skill we develop adds to our player card.

The ages between 15 and 30 could be seen as a "dangerous" period because it is when we start to discover ourselves. It's crucial to develop traits that bring us happiness and satisfaction, not just those that promise financial rewards or social status.

Why it’s so important and dangerous at the same time, because 30 is a boundary when everyone has become independent and responsible for their life. At that moment, we still live in a material world where people need money to live, and this reality often pushes us into roles that align with our most developed properties at the highest level on your player card, but not necessarily our passions. You choose a role that is the most eligible and reliable based on the properties that are at the highest level on your player card.

For example, you could become a programmer because it pays well and you learned it in university, but your soul would rather bake one of those special cakes. However, cakes can’t pay your bills now, and to achieve this, you would need 5 years to perfect your baking.

Fast forward to 45, and you might feel like you're living someone else's life. You're fixing bugs instead of baking cakes, and the thought of starting over seems daunting. Let’s imagine you are brave enough to change your life at that moment, but what's the real price? You might have spent 30 years in a career that didn’t resonate with your true self.

That's why it's essential to listen to yourself, discover, explore, and make informed choices. You need to find your way by trying all potential paths in the most efficient way possible. Regret is often a result of a journey not taken, a path not explored.
