I’m trying to plan my life, but I feel like I’m putting together a thousand-piece puzzle with no picture on the box

    A decent first step is trying to figure out what the picture looks like.

    What kind of job do you want? What kind of family do you want? What kind of place do you want to live? What hobbies or activities do you want to do? The picture will be blurry and that is ok.

    From that, you can start to plan out what you need to do to make that picture. Do you need a certain education? Do you need to live in a certain part of the world? Do your goals match your drive? Are your goals reasonable?

    And it is fine if your picture changes over time. It does for everyone. However, having a picture gives you something to plan against.
