Thank you Raj! You were not only very brave in putting yourself out, but it was very helpful! I recently obtained my doctorate degree and I am in a crossroad: pursue a job in university or go to the private sector. The process is daunting!
Good luck to you in your journey Carolina 🙂 I hope you have people around you who can listen, as you make that choice. Thank you for your kind words! Raj
Thanks Raj, great points - agreed that though I love the idea of Ikigai, it did make me stuck when I was too quick to judge and didn't realise I was doing it
I really appreciate this comment @jaymayhoi - and the insight. I think it's super tricky to be aware (in real time) that this judgement might be happening - but so valuable when you do see it. I hope you found another approach that worked for you?
@@rajsidhu yes, I eventually "took some risks" and dipped my feet in a few career pathways, some which I dismissed, and have now landed on one which I'm really enjoying
@@jaymayhoi I'm glad - and I also believe that's the best possible way... be guided by the experiences you have. I'm also a massive believer that sometimes the least risky option is to take the risk. Congratulations 🙂
Excellent video, Raj. I liked your enthusiasm in the whole process because it's a daunting task to change careers and expertise. One thing I did love about your video is when you talked about the "variable change" -- That's key. One thing can pivot your whole perspective and future. Cheers
Ahh thanks @hassansyed6087 I really appreciate this! The variable change really was the key and it was such a subtle - and unexpected thing. I agree - one thing really can pivot a whole perspective. I hope you find that, or have found it already :-) Raj
Honestly, that's a fair comment @antonytanno. One counterpoint: money can act as a brake on career change as much as a facilitator, for some. But there's no doubt savings and other priveleges made my change a lot easier than it would otherwise be. Thanks for watching and I wish you all the very best. Raj

Easy to change when you have money and savings. Good for you. Thanks for the info none the less
