Reflect on your life from the perspective of your deathbed. Consider whether you would regret choosing the easiest path, following in your parents' footsteps, or pursuing a financially rewarding yet unfulfilling career. Envision a life where you made a significant impact by saving lives and helping others. To live a truly fulfilling life, focus on outward contributions rather than internal passions. Strive to make a positive impact on the world and use your fortunate position to help others. By doing so, you can lead a successful and satisfying career while making a difference at little cost to yourself.
