Have you ever wondered what your thing is, I mean, your one true calling?

If it isn’t what you’re currently doing — and wasn’t something you previously did — you might hope it will be the next.

Perhaps the one after that.

Surely, trial and error is a good way forward in finding your path. But you may wonder how many times you can keep trying. Starting over, building from scratch.

Perhaps growing restless asking yourself when you will find the perfect match.

The thing is, it is not only about our careers. It’s about identity. Asking ourselves why we are here, trying to find our purpose.

And that is something worth striving for.

In a world of specialists, it is hard to be something else.

But do we have to find our one true calling, or is there more to it?
