It's the choices you've made, and will make, that ultimately define the shape of your post military career among other things. At some point everyone has made a wrong decision, big or small, but the most successful people know that those experiences can be the most valuable of all.
If you feel that right now making a decision on the path of your next career is so paramount that it could make or break you, then just stop - really it isn't! Don't worry so much about making the right choice and instead focus on finding something that simply seems appealing and plays on your skills, experience and transferable skills.
As you progress through your transition you can use this time to conduct valuable research on yourself and what you find interesting and inspiring from first-hand experience and move your career confidently in the right direction.
