I have been waffling for a long time about whether I should take my career in one of two very different directions. To put it simply, I'm doing OK, but I may want to take a risk and make a change in the focus of my profession. For what it's worth, I am a fan of the Iron Man movies, and I have been thinking, "Wow, if I'm Iron Man, I can take both paths at the same time". Of course, if your work has defined your life, you would see everything in terms of your work.
In any case, I took the weekend off to book into a hotel and ask my self that question. I then had a dream that I was Iron Man. Like the first movie, I landed in the military airbase of a hostile rogue state, where I began destroying all the jet fighters. I then took off, and the base fired a missile at me. I fly at sharp angles, and I could see the missile would not be able to catch up to me. Then I woke up.
I will say that, a year or so ago, I did have a similar dream, except I was test-flying the iron-man suit, and I was very happy. Then I woke up and felt disappointed that I was just dreaming.
The obvious conclusion is that, if I identified the movie with changing my career path, and I had those dreams, then I should change, but this could just be wishful thinking. I am wondering if someone can help me with this, because I really don't know what I should do.
