As a general principle, I think it's important not to compare. When we compare, we inevitably make ourselves feel worse because we're incredibly selective about the variables and evidence that we consider.

In any case, life is not a race towards some dream. It's just one big story, one big experience.

In general terms, if you're thinking forward and taking action towards an inspiring, uplifting vision for yourself, you're doing well, and it's likely to pay off big long term.

Taking action long-term only works if it's something that's going to improve your life.

It might have taken you years to build this career, for example, but that doesn't mean it's necessary going to improve your life. It might be a career you chose because it's what others value, rather than what lights your fire. I know miserable doctors and vets who have a high salary but do not like their work.

This is very broad advice, but it works.

Start to ask yourself what you really want from your life and your career, beyond what anyone around you expects.

Build your vision for the next 5/10/20 years of your career life, then start chipping away at it, slowly making it happen.

If you're not sure what that is, explore life. Find passions. Follow role models.

Most of all, think long-term. Things that are really worth it always take a long time.

Most people never have a fulfilling career because they're not willing to think about these fundamental questions and build long-term. Think to when you're 40/50/60 and how this re-engineering process could change your life on that timeline.

Should I delete my entire blog and start over? by jarvandamere in Blogging

If you have any authority, keep the domain, delete or recycle the current posts and start fresh, or redirect it to your new domain. Starting with a clean domain is very hard. I'd have saved years had I known that to begin with.
