If the salary was the same, what job would you be doing right now and why?
If salary were the same, I think I would still choose a combination of teaching, building my own projects and products, and doing some writing or research.
What draws me to this kind of work is not just the work itself, but how it makes me feel. Teaching helps me learn and improve my own understanding. Building something of my own gives me excitement, ownership and a sense of progress. Writing and research give me the space to think more deeply, explore ideas and make sense of what I am learning.
I would probably still do some consulting, but less of it. I find myself more drawn to creating and building than simply advising.
At the end of the day, I want work that keeps me curious, helps me grow, makes me feel productive and, most importantly, feels meaningful.
