When I was a kid, I wanted to be a roboticist. Robotics seemed so cool. Then I got into school and learned I have an extremely unsteady hand and I might be able to kill myself with a screwdriver. The pivot within my computer engineering major is how I ended up as a plain ol' webdev. I was dissatisfied until I managed to fall into HealthTech. I like making processes easier for people. That was at the core of my robotics dream. In retrospect, I probably could have still become a roboticist even if I can't solder at all. But given how much I hated school at the end, it was best I gave up in year 2 on the dream. I wouldn't have done well in grad school.
