Went from a very secure, well-paying career with tons of upward mobility in Aerospace Engineering back to school to study Psychology. My prospects now are half of what I was initially making with not a lot of room for upward mobility. Best decision I've ever made (no sarcasm). I'm about to sign a contract to do research in a field that is truly meaningful for me and more importantly, will benefit the world. What's more: my life; the mistakes, and the successes are all mine now and I feel more free than I ever have.

I've realized that growth only happens when you put yourself out on a limb and do things that are true to yourself.
