What if your dream professional career isn't what you expected it to be?

This question might pop up at some point in our lives. It's scary to answer it.

When I wrote Kaleidoscope Eyes, I remembered when I was a recent graduate. I was full of dreams and hopes. I felt like I had chosen the right path, and that it would only lead me to the most amazing experiences.

Reality told me otherwise. As I started landing some jobs, I realized that I wanted something different; that my dream was somewhere else. It was difficult to admit it. I never saw that coming.

How could that happen?

Another memory came to mind: a conversation I had with friends who were also struggling to figure out their professional paths. We all questioned our choices and wondered what led us to the point we were at the time. We figured that maybe we needed more time to make big decisions.

I'll never forget what one of them said: "nobody can figure out what to do with themselves at age eighteen. They're just so young."

We all were that age when we went to university. We didn't think we would be unhappy as we entered the real world.

These memories motivated me to write Kaleidoscope Eyes. I thought of capturing the essence of this struggle and share its journey in two major scenarios: when choosing the career path and when experiencing it.

Even when there's a constant wave of emotions, something positive comes up. Like a kaleidoscope, after being shaken, new patterns reveal beautiful outcomes.

You never see the world with the same eyes, but your new view is also wonderful.
