Hey,
The big questions.
What do you do with your life?
Who do you want to be when you grow up?
These answers are easy when you're young.
You want to be your superhero.
And for me that wasn't complicated at the age of 7.
It was Superman.
But when you are a little older it it gets more complicated.
The wonderful world of distracted dreaming is replaced by reality.
And many of us struggle.
The reality
I was 27. Despising my job.
My chosen career that I had devoted a decade of my life training and working on was boring. ( I didn't want to go 40 years into it and then live on 1/3 of a salary I couldn't live with to begin with. )
And....
I hated it.
So….
Going to the classroom.
Everyday.
Teaching.
It was drudgery.
Another 40 years was not possible.
In fact one more day was too much.
I looked around at the burnt out teachers who were decades in.
Many were just hanging in there.
But there was also the ones that loved their careers.
I should have been happy but I wasn't.
My parents were proud.
It was supposed to be a noble profession.
But it wasn't what I should have been doing.
It was time to do something.
But what?

Have a great week and be awesome.
Best
João
