    Hey there,

    I’m Alex and I’m 23 years old. I’ve always been a very shy person and not great at interacting with people (like small talk and things like that… mainly being social). I’ve gotten better over the years, but there are times that my shyness gets in the way of doing things that I really want to do. Not just in my personal life, but in my career. That’s where it will hurt you.

    I think you should pursue something that makes you happy and comfortable, something you actually see yourself doing. Once you have that figured out everything else will fall in place. You see when we as humans do something we really love and feel passionate about we become confident about it without even realizing it. That is what you need to figure out.

    I wish you the best of luck and keep moving forward!

    Thanks to everyone that replied to this and shared their insight, experience, and knowledge on the subject. It really helped me weigh out my choices. By the way I just turned 23 this week. Now I have to start making some decisions, which can be the hardest part!

    Sometimes there’s this burning feeling inside that says I should go for it… to just do it. As for the people I currently work with I know they are not the problem, they are great people. It’s more the work, it simply feels empty and with little purpose. I really feel like what I am craving now is feeling like what I do matters, that it makes a difference or helps people.
    I got a long road ahead of me and at the end of the day I want to feel satisfied and happy.

    Once again, I appreciate the thoughtful responses!

    -Alex M.
