Health care professionals: how did you decide what career was right for you?

I've recently gone back to college, having ditched my career in legal services in favor of a new career in Pharmacy. But now I'm questioning whether being a pharmacist is right for me. Maybe I should go to medical school instead! Or maybe I should be a Physician Assistant...or a Nurse Practitioner... or something else?! Anybody in a health care field, how did you decide which specialty was right for you?
