Many people can't even imagine correctly what they'd rather be doing, some because they've never had the opportunity to have a taste of what they want to do. Finding your calling is an iterative processes.
My recommendation: try many, various, wide-ranging things. Then just like software design, refine, refine, refine. It doesn't always mean starting your own company.

- imp 17y agoI absolutely agree. In the past four years I've switched from scientist (well, grad student) to mechanical engineer to software developer. Transitioning can be stressful and difficult, but I'm really happy with where I am now. I look at it as if I'm focusing a microscope. When you begin, you use large, coarse refinements until you get approximately the right focal length. Then you can worry about focusing in on smaller details.
