What is discussed
AskMonty AI editorial noteSource consulted:
Marco recalls choosing to study law and deciding to leave legal training before taking the lawyer’s exam. He says he did not feel suited to that environment, even though he had neither another offer nor a ready-made passion to follow. He uses the memory to reflect on choosing by elimination: sometimes one first understands what one does not want to do. This is a personal retrospective account, not a formula guaranteeing a better career or a general invitation to leave a job.
Key points
- He describes the initial choice of law as an option he thought practical, without a particular legal vocation.
- Marco distinguishes his degree, training and permission to practise from the lawyer’s exam, which he says he left before taking.
- He describes discomfort in the judicial environment in relation to his own character, without extending it to every legal career.
- The decision he recalls did not start from an alternative offer already available.
- Reasoning by inversion starts with what one does not want to do and leaves later possibilities open.
