Anyone open to sharing their strategy for finding an exit op? I spent the last 5 months applying, few final rounds but nothing materialized but I recently realized I’m just applying at will. I feel like I should be more focused and find something I truly want. How did people go about this “search/exploration”

I have the tendency to rush into something and then find out 2 years in it’s not for me. Just feeling really down and demotivated
