After school, everyone seemed to know what they were doing next. College, a course, an exam. I didn't.
I thought I needed to figure out what I wanted first, and then start. So I waited. I read, watched videos and made lists.
None of it made anything clearer.
What actually helped was doing small things and noticing how they felt.
Designing for a real client told me I like solving problems for people. Posting reels told me I care more about ideas than tools. None of that came from thinking about it.
I still don't have it all figured out. But I've stopped waiting to.
