WHAT WILL MAKE YOU HAPPY?

Added on October 19, 2018 by Jason Lam.

Turns out. I'm really bad at knowing what I really want and what will make me happy. I might want to travel the world, but really I just want the freedom to do so if desired. I might want to be a millionaire, but really I just want enough to support my hobbies. I might want to run my own business, but really I just want the autonomy to work when I want and be able to take extra-long lunch breaks to catch up with friends and stuff.

Taking all that into consideration. I might not want a lot of the things I say I want. And I might actually enjoy a lot of things I never thought I’d enjoy. Like teaching for example, or interviewing my friends, even cooking. It remains true. Just because you enjoy watching movies doesn't mean you will enjoy working in the movie industry.

(I made that sentence up, it’s not a saying at all. It works though right? Ok, fine, maybe not.)
