Stan has some good words but as someone who has failed at multiple paths in life, and literally about to start his sixth year of being an undergraduate, it's my previous failures that put me on this path I'm on.

The scary thing about being an adult is not knowing what to do, but that's also the fun of it, going through and trying everything you can, using every opportunity, and even if you fail one path you can always take another. Even right now, I have no idea what I'll do with my degree when I graduate, but my track record and special skills I've taken the time in learning can get me far in fields you might not even consider.

And especially the relationships you make along the way will pay off, I promise, even if you can't think of a way they can. Even currently, I'm possibly planning on starting a company next year and hiring some university friends and going into business contracting work for a relative's company who needs to outsource labor. This is all on the side that has nothing to do with my ambition because my uncle's company reached out and I have friends in a particular field I failed at that can both be hired and find other potential candidates in that department. So even though I failed in that department and had to switch majors, it wasn't for nothing.

No one can tell you what to do, whether you should or shouldn't take a job or opportunity, it's for you to decide. But as a general tip, keeping an open mind is a great thing.

Human psychology is pretty interesting. If people 'sense' your individualism and your willingness to learn/try new things, they latch onto it. They go to you first when they have opportunities, new projects, new ambitions, etc etc. It's almost like a domino effect, once it starts, it continues so on and so forth with different people, different opportunities, etc etc. But it has to start with you. No one is going to give the opportunities to shut-ins or people afraid of learning or trying new things.

Also, make smart choices with your friends. I have had lots of friends over the years. Friends who dropped out of school and never made anything of themselves, friends who are going places, friends who are nice people but are fucking dumbasses, friends who are assholes, etc. But I constantly surround myself with positive thinkers who support and encourage me to excel in my own field completely different from theirs, whereas the dropout friends just play videogames all day and work dead-end jobs, and the asshole friends threw away a near decade long friendship over a microphone. You have to surround yourself with the right people. I wouldn't be where I am today without some of my friends (the most important ones in my life I only met two years ago btw)

Sorry for the long essay but I hope it helps.
