> Start by questioning whether your job should really be the primary source of meaning in your life

I really like this! Once you realize that your job doesn't have to be the primary source of meaning in your life, you have two new variables to adjust:

- the primary source of meaning in your life - hobbies? family? friends?

- your job - it's meaning for your life doesn't have to be zero, it shouldn't be! so how does your job paint part of the picture of your life without becoming the dominant blob of hot pink in the middle of the canvas?

I believe the main approach that could work for the majority of people is this: a corporate job (either full-time or part-time) combined with your own portfolio of services.

Let’s be honest, not everyone is suited to handle the burden and pressure of being a solopreneur or running an enterprise.

This approach can serve as a valuable step, allowing you to gain experience and confidence before transitioning to something more independent, if that’s your goal.
