Comment on How did you decide what you generally wanted to do with your life?

My mom always said “you don’t need to know what you are doing for the rest of your life, just decide what you are doing for the next five years”.

Interestingly, this is basically the approach of some of the best management/leadership thinkers these days (e.g. Cynefin). I think the basic premise is “the world is changing so fast that any plans you make now might be meaningless in a decade, so focus on what’s knowable in the here and now, and your next step”. Dave Snowden from Cynefin points to Ana’s “The Next Right Thing” from Frozen 2 as excellent advice 😅
