Have you ever felt a imaginary switch click that changed the trajectory of your life?
It could be over a few months, like a new job where one day you feel like actually going to work thinking, hey I actually like these people and don't mind working here.
Or when your friends have been super busy for months and suddenly you get matched on dating apps, old friends reach out and people want to buy your old junk on Craigslist in a single day.

That is so interesting. If you're willing to say, I'm curious about which fields they were?
I had a similar experience with radically switching majors (zoology to engineering). I just needed to know. However, in my case I sensed the door closing and dashed back in. Would've liked that engineering money though..
My field was and is now languages. I knew that I had a couple of other interests that needed to work themselves out, so I took a job in broadcasting and audio production, turning down a job in languages. Life would’ve been much different if I hadn’t.
Oh, quite a big change for sure. And you'd be having the exact same thoughts on the other side if you'd taken that language job. That'd definitely be sitting in my thoughts.
Yeah, that's what I thought at the time too. For a ton of reasons, it seemed the right decision then. In the long run... who knows?
