I’m not being paid

Hopefully, it’s worth it. 

I’m young. Only 24. So why not take a risk? This is what I have been telling myself over and over again. It’s not that I don’t still believe in it. It’s just that I don’t say it (even in my head) with the same enthusiasm which I did before.

I suppose this is a fact of life — it’s hard.

Let’s put some background to this.

I graduated from one of the top universities in the world. So with the addition of my generally employable personality, it wasn’t surprising that I was hired a year before I even graduated. To a multi-national bank, no less.

I sometimes wonder whether I should have been more proactive in looking for other job options rather than what just turned up in front of me in my face. Honestly, while I was still studying in uni, I wasn’t sure (and still am not quite) of what I wanted to do life. As such, I suppose I ‘settled’ for the bank. It was simply what was there, thrown at me, paid well, and looked promising.
