Hey, I struggled with this question too. It can hang up a lot of very smart people in a challenging way. A few thoughts: - Sector of business and the problems you want to solve can end up being kind of orthogonal. I knew I wanted to have a big impact on some of the world's poorest people. I ended up working in agtech which at first had no impact on the world's poorest folks, it just made a few people very rich actually. I broke off and started a startup in the space 3 years ago that's now using agtech to help the world's smallest farmers radically improve their incomes. It takes time, but I wouldn't get too hung up on the sector to work in, I'd focus on what's driving you. If you want to work in healthcare to help people in your community, remember that helping people in your community is the goal and healthcare is just one possible medium. - I really like Peter Thiel's classnotes from the startup class he taught at Stanford. They really changed my world view on what a successful company/life would be for me. I know he's become somewhat of a pariah in the tech community for his Trump support, but this work is pretty apolitical and really excellent.
