The thing about direction is you have to kind of grab and create it. It's not going to just come to you.

I'm rereading this thread a bit and I'm wondering how much of this felt directionlessness that a lot of people in their young adult years have is more of a case of expecting some kind of insight to come to you and being passive, agencyless, and not an active participant in making your future. It certainly seems like a lot of young people I've met expect an epiphany of some kind when that doesn't occur.

You're not going to find a direction unless you actually go looking for it.
