I like to make decisions based on things I'm interested in doing, not what seems like the next move in my quote-unquote career.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
Doing something because it's quote-unquote a good career move doesn't really appeal to me.
I've always said in my career and in my life I only do things I'm interested in.
I've never been one to carefully calculate my career decisions, to sit on the outside looking in. I go with my passion and what moves me.
I want to have the career that is my choice - what interests me, what doesn't. I feel more and more strongly about that.
Sometimes the things you decide not to do are actually the biggest things to do in your career.
I think I've always had to pick and choose whatever I want to work on. If I'm not happy with what I'm doing, it's probably not going to end up that interesting.
What I want out of my career is just to work.
I'm more interested in my life than I am in my career. I don't want to not work. I do enjoy working, but not to the point where that's the only thing I focus on.
If you have a level of expectation in your life that you have to be a quote-unquote star, whatever that means, you might be setting yourself up for failure.
I don't make a career plan. I take things the way they come.
