    Truly amazing video. Im 25 and having a rough time with these thoughts . I've had a great career so far as a cook . Worked my way up quite fast, now i plan to do a 4yr degree for computer science. This is probably the hardest decision I've ever made in my life. It's really nice to know I am not alone.

    At 38 now, I wonder I didn't see your video when I was struggling but now I'm here listening it AFTER I did a big change in myself, thank you! This is exactly the same reason I had to break my comfort-zone of 15 years to take step into evolving myself into next version (still going through). Although, I'm successful enough as freelancer but I have so much inside to share with the world and help them for solutions which is beyond my self-career.

    Im 33, I studied geology and I always hated it, but I stayed there because my parents was proud of me, the money was good, and I felt that I cant waste the years of study at the university. Now, Im working as an industrial engineer because my ex-boyfriend got me that job and I loved it, but I always feel like I dont belong there because Im a geologist. Im thinking about study and work at the same time. I searched "career change at 30" only to encourage myself to do it. Should I do it?

    This woman is undoubtedly an ENFP in the Myers Briggs type indicator. Extroverted intuition is novelty seeking. ENFPs make great teachers and pick new things up quickly. She is also likely an Enneagram 7.

    • @aditidubey5519

    • @jaredvaughan1665
      @jaredvaughan1665 4 года назад +1

      @@aditidubey5519 I'm an INTP, and according to a typology system called Socionics I am your supervisor (my supervisor being an ESTP.) So my strongest function (introverted thinking) is your weakest function. But like you I have strong extroverted intuition. So I can spot ENFPs in a crowd. Tony Robbins is an ENFP too. When I hear you guys speaking as an INTP I am constantly filtering what you say through my introverted thinking (Ti) to determine whether it is true or not, which makes me your supervisor. Congratulation! What you have said rings true and has already helped me alot. I was a pilot for 10 years but got sick of it, like you did flight attendant. I now enjoy my job as a call centre agent much more at this time. I have long considered myself a failure for my career breakdown but thanks to your talk I feel blessed that I could soak up so much growth in aviation and then do something totally different where I get to grow even more. Like you my extroverted intuition (En) seeks novelty and variety. This is not the case though for the more common sensor judgers (SJs) who seek stability and security, like my ISFJ (enneagram 6) mother. I encourage you to google search "enneagram 7," your enneagram type. The enneagram is a fast growing, very true personality system.

    @The_Scouts_Code 7 лет назад +2

    To paraphrase, Aditi said "don't let the naysayers tell you you can't do something, they don't have to live with the consequences, you do".
    But the corollary is the same way I feel as a nearly 30-year-old trying for a kid when she tells me to not be afraid of going after more. So if I chose to study full time to become a doctor, how will I pay the mortgage and raise a kid? Adati telling me to go after more doesn't have to suffer the consequences of no income for eight years...
    I don't want to sound like a negative Norman but I'm just not convinced, and I'm sure I'd like to be.

    • @aditidubey5519
      @aditidubey5519 6 лет назад +2

      I understand. I had to save up and wait for a long time too. 10 years between getting a bachelor's degree n master's qualification. And another 10 for a PhD. All the saving up, planning and was done during the 10 years in each case.

    • @ssn90
      @ssn90 6 лет назад

      Doctor seems pretty difficult though not impossible. Is there any ancillary areas which might interest you? e.g. Biochemistry, physio therapy, technicians, pathology etc?
      Are you passionate about treating & helping people or is it for the money? If it is the latter, you might as well invest the time & money in an MBA.
      But if your primary goal/passion is the former + science of medicine, then go for medicine or any of the ancillary areas of medicine.

    • @JABurtin
      @JABurtin 6 лет назад +1

      You're living under the paradigm that money comes from a job. Most people that build wealth don't have jobs, they invest in some form of property. Not just physical property like Real Estate, but intellectual properties like writing a book, or perhaps starting a simple business being the only supplier for a very niche product (this can often be done out of a garage). Replacing income can be much easier than people think. From there if you spend your time setting up systems that others can run, then you can hire employees to run the system while you pursue your next endeavor.
      in short, don't try to become a doctor because you think doctors get paid well (comparatively, they don't). The only reason you should pursue being a doctor is if it is for the fulfillment of your soul. To that end you first need to change your inner conversation from "I can't afford that", to "how can I afford that".
      A few books that can be helpful:
      The Millionaire Next Door - This book destroyed the stereotype that millionaires live in mansions up on the hill. Instead, those are usually high paid professionals that maintain very little personal wealth like doctors and lawyers. The real millionaires are wealthy because they live very normal lives and value the security of wealth over ostentatious displays of wealth.
      Rich Dad Poor Dad - An in-depth and fascinating case study of one millionaire that is a perfect example of the lessons from The Millionaire Next Door.
      The Four Hour Work Week - Author Tim Ferriss is one of my personal favorites.
      A life hacker that: won a national Sanshou Kickboxing tournament in China with one month of training on a dare, placed third in the world in a Ballroom dancing competition after six months of training with an elite performer, gained 32 pounds of solid muscle in one month through hacking his biochemistry with workouts that take less that 15 minutes, catapulted his first book to #1 on the best seller list by hacking the system, and many other crazy accomplishments.
      He is a master of finding the 20% of the work that needs to be done to achieve 80% of the success (Pareto's Law).

    "You need a degree, go get one". Sure, no problem. Easier said, than done. Realistically, some things, are just out of one's capability, so it's best, just to stay put. "If they can do it, we can do it". Not true. This is a naive general statement, that gives false hope.

    I had a relatively successful career as a designer for 8+ years and 4-year degree, decided that it didn’t align with my values anymore because of the wasteful and vain industry I was working in. I got my MBA, and switched tracks to working as a Business Analyst in the clean energy sector for a large company with one of the best employee satisfaction. I’m happier than ever, and I’ve been happy along the way until my priorities changed.. Follow your heart, plan with your mind, and you will find alignment. 🫶🏼
