Because you don't know which one to commit to, you feel like you don't know which direction to go in at all. So what happens if you just treat it like an experiment? What experiments can you run that don't require years of new work, To see if you can find situations that move you a little closer to that goal. And maybe taking a forestry job and saying, you know what?

I'm going to give this six months. I'm going to see if I feel better about it. Maybe even... Set a goal and see if in six months you have achieved it. Here could be a goal. I've given you these four things that you want. Autonomy, feeling challenged, feeling fully utilized, and finding meaning. And you have given numbers to these things for your current situation.

Take the forestry job six months later, fill out that chart, one to 10. Did everything move up at least one or two notches? If so, I would say good experiment, right? Like good experiment.
