I took a job that doesn't challenge me

I've been stuck in unfulfilling jobs, feeling like a waste of space

What I wish I knew
"I should have pursued a career that aligns with my strengths"
If I could tell you one thing
"Don't settle for a job that doesn't challenge you, it can lead to long-term regret"
