Wow, Georg this was so so good. As someone trying to carve my own path but struggling with not succumbing to making "rational decisions" and bucking convention, this really resonated.
Especially loved: "Feelings and visions are not the by-product, but the essence for creating your own life. And once you figured out what makes you want to get up in the morning, you can use your mind and rationality to make it happen."
Beautifully written and I can feel the confidence in your last line "I tell them I quit my job as a product manager, moved out of my nice apartment (with an ocean view this time), and am taking a four-week writing course to follow my heart and become a storyteller." Love it!
"Do you know why you are on the path you’re on right now? Or what your destination is?"
Important questions worth reflection on regularly! This whole piece is so refreshing. From the title to the whimsical photo, your personal journey and beyond.

And what a story to begin that storytelling career with. This is a great essay, Georg. Congrats!
Thank you! :)

Thank you Alexandra! You are right, it is a constant process and not done once.
