I feel trapped in the slowlane because I did all the "right" things I was told to do. I got the degree in STEM (read crippling $42,000 in loans), currently doing biomedical research. One week ago, prior to reading TMF book, I wanted to pursue a PhD. NOW, I am lost like a dog and could genuinely use some smart advice from people who are serious about the fastlane.
So you did these things because you were TOLD to?
Or because your heart wanted to do them?
Are you following a purpose and a meaning?
Or following what society tells you to follow?
Where do you WANT TO BE in 3, 5, 10 years? Does a PhD fit into that narrative?
And will your current path get you there? If so, stay the course.
I would advise making any rash decisions after reading my book (or any book for that matter) until you truly think about what you want out of life. Too many folks get excited about something, but don't truly realize how big a lifestyle shift it is ...
