I had to have this beat into my head by a friend:

"A pilots career is not about the destination. It's about the journey to the destination."

Enjoy the ride. You'll go up, you'll go down. Who knows WHAT you'll be flying in 35 years. It doesn't matter. It's all about the people you meet and the places you see along the way. The airlines of today are still in a big shakeup. I wouldn't be surprised to see the entire airline environment changed in 10 years. You can just fly, work hard, always learn, and dammit have some fun! If you are stressing about getting so much flight time or this and that, you are going to miss out on some real good times.
