    Everything eventually comes to an end. Better to plan how you want that to look rather than it happen by circumstance - and therefore it may not end in your favor.

    6. Venturing on a path that does not allow for time or location flexibility.

    7. Venturing down a path because you like the lifestyle it provides but you do not actually like the work.

    8. Accepting a career path because someone (society, your parents, the media, etc.) said you should.

    9. Accepting a career path that does not align with your values.

    10. Starting a business that ends up owning you more than you own it.

Great post! These are all great points to consider when starting a business or career path. It's so important to be thoughtful about our decisions and not be driven by ego or money. My advice is to focus on the process, not the outcome. If you focus on doing your best work and creating value for people, the money and status will follow.
