The public script isthat careers are chosen once, at twenty-two, andPursued. Anyone deviating from that is assumed toHave failed at the first attempt.That script was never accurate. A great many peoplechange direction in the middle of a working life, andmost do it quietly, without announcing it as a crisis.This book is not motivational, does not promise thatfollowing your passion works, and does not pretendthe risk is small.
