Oh man I’m fully aware that I’m pretty lucky to be where I am, there was a handful of conscious decisions I made which led me here and far more decisions out of my control. However taking ~6 years off of full time work to put myself in a better position and study something I’m indifferent towards (not a personal interest of mine) were some deliberate choices I made. I didnt choose video games or hockey as a field I could see myself working in, even though they sound more appealing than what I currently do.
