Life is a gamble

I often joke about going through a quarter-life crisis, but apparently it's a real thing.
Reading books and articles written on the topic, seeing segments on the news, and just listening to the general buzz around the office, I'm actually hearing a lot about it.

And it goes something like this:
What am I going to do with my life? I'm (insert age here) and I have no idea who I am or who I want to be. I have no (love life, career, money, etc.) and I'm supposed to be a grown up! FML!

Sound familiar? I'm willing to bet it does. But we'll have to wait till Friday. That's payday.

P.S. The title of this post, "Life is a gamble," is a quote from Muhammad Ali.  At the age of 18, Ali won the Olympic Gold Medal in boxing. At 25 years old, he won his first World Heavyweight Championship. Just putting that out there.

So whatever are we to do?

I might suggest being patient. Beginning a career you find meaningful. Following your intuition. Having faith.

But then again, if I knew how to help you I wouldn't be sitting at this computer, writing this post, worrying about what to do next...
