The better option, as my opinion, is working remote from home and you have time stay with the once you love, saving time from long traffic go-back is enough for spending extra time and enjoy yourself with family.

I wish I could find some kind of this remote work, if you could suggestion, much appreciate. 🫡

I used to explore different frontend tech. I had bosses who wanted me to be a React, Vue, and Svelte guy. I also had experience with mobile apps (React Native, Flutter). I ended up liking backend more.

That’s a great example of the message in this post. At the end of the day, you know what’s best for you—not someone else. I’m glad you discovered your joy for backend.

Uncertainty is ok.

It's ok to try a few things early on and discover how you feel about them.

Tapping into your natural inclinations requires some trial and error.

My whole life is trial and error. 😅 I agree with you. You’ll never know until you try.

Hey, thanks for sharing this! This article came at the perfect time for me. I'm also not sure about my next career steps, and it's comforting to know that's totally okay. I'll keep exploring and focus on finding what truly energizes me. Sometimes not knowing is just part of the journey! 💪

It’s okay to not know and have it all figured out. Social media likes to highlight the people who know it all, but the truth is, most people are just taking things one day at a time.

Thank you for sharing this. As a data analyst/scientist, the uncertainty mounts. especially when you have to meet engineers and developers. For a lot of people, it's more about having a career than making an income thean adding value, AND THAT IS OKAY. we can be honest about that.

Also, you have a wealth of experience and I hate LinkedIn.

How do we make the energy cost of virtues (like courage, resilience, alliances, gratitude, and vulnerability) less than that of sins?!
