The conversation between human and AI assistant.
Is it normal to be scared of pursuing my dream (of doing research) when I can easily get a government job? What should I do?
I'm definitely more passionate about research, but I'm worried about the uncertainty of it all.
It's understandable to have fears and uncertainties when it comes to big decisions, but you might be able to mitigate some of those concerns by making a plan. Could you create a list of actionable steps to achieve your goal of becoming a researcher?
