Finished school 5yrs ago and am now working as sysadmin in a finance institute for 3yrs. i faced severe extistential angst 1 year after finishing engineering school at the age of 20 and it took me another year to find the job I have right now. Basically I was scared of walking down this secure path because I felt like the world is so big and I haven't seen everything out there, I would miss out on a better life I thought.
Back then a friend told me "stop worrying about yourself, if others aren't either and play the cards you've been dealt".
Now I'm 24, have this stable job, my own flat that I recently finished working, my own car and am seeing a girl - that might potentially turn more serious soon, so you'd think I'm living the life.
But this Angst is coming back now - I don't wanna be stuck at the same job for 10+yrs.
I set myself a deadline of 2yrs to either upgrade my job or move into another field entirely.
I just don't know how to go about it really. I feel like I am OK at writing and its something I'd like to try but how does one start?
The more I think about my future the more I think I'm wasting my 20s right now. I'll just die as another unmemorable human and leave nothing of value behind.
