Assuming the 10000 hour rule of gaining expertise and toning it down, because in a job you cannot just do deliberate practice for 10K hours :-), I guess a single fulfilling profession for 10 years, where you learn, become good enough to extract mileage out of it and then moving on to a new career, should be plausible.
Anyone out here who has done that, much like Tarzan, holding onto the one career while switching to another? I have not yet given this a deep thought, but it looks cool to have multiple professions in a one lifespan but am not sure how to do it. Or is it that as life/age happens and we just have to stick to 1 career/profession. Any thoughts appreciated.
I'm an electrical engineer 12 years out of college. I did design work for 5 years, became an electronics quality manager in operations, then design validation test manager in R&D, and now questioning what to do with my career ... I'm leaning towards data analytics guru ...
