Uncertainty is not the only challenge holding you back.     2     You may be unwilling to ask strangers about their work or to ask your colleagues for help because you fear rejection. Or, you may fear failure. Don't let these fears block your search. Remember that one definition of success is ^u doing your very best to realize your dreams. “     3

3. The best way to learn about the work is to “ try it on for size “ by getting some related experience.

    5    That greatly increases your ability to “mix and match” information later on to discover, or even create, work possibilities that would be ideal for you.
