What to do?

I'm excited. I'm nervous. I'm scared.

Sometimes the fear of the unknown is the best fear. I used to think that everyone needed a career plan. I've asked many people what they wanted to do and most, if not all, had an answer. Then they would ask me and I would say "I don't know". I do, but I don't. It used to be something different every time someone asked me, so I settled with "I don't know". Growing up I always thought you had to know what you wanted to do. You go to college, then university then get a graduate job and progress from there to get to your dream job. I always felt a little bit different. A few years ago I wanted to be a management consultant. I actually didn't know what that was, I just knew I would earn lots of money. Then I moved on to human resource consultant, business analyst, hedge fund manager????  I didn't realise that it was all to do with money, and I guess it was because of that I couldn't stick to what I wanted to do.

Then it came to mee (but secretly kinda knew all along).
 It's the doing of what you love that is the reward, not the money.

*update* (I wrote this a few months ago, but did not actually post)

So fellow graduates and undergraduates and anyone who is reading this! Here is a lovely video that I have watched countless of times which has inspired me to keep on searching so that I can live the most rewarding and fulfilling life!

I know one thing for certain, I want to help the world.
