Have the most fun
I've been listening to old episodes of Cabin Pressure. Here's a dialogue:
'I have always wanted to be an airline captain... ever since I was six.'
'Ah, and before that?'
'I wanted to be an aeroplane. [...] What did you want to be?'
'Oh, various things at different times. I studied medicine at a university.'
'You wanted to be a doctor?'
'Well, I wanted to be a medical student. They seem to have the most fun. I'm not sure I ever wanted to be a doctor—glamorous, but gloopy.' Guess I should go back to enjoying being a student, not having goals in sight, not feeling the need to do well. Go back to doing things where there's pleasure in doing them.
