My Incipient Career

This word keeps showing up: incipient. It reminds me of insipid or perhaps incendiary. Incipient -- adj. just beginning; in the early stages. Insipid -- adj. vapid, foolish. Incendiary -- adj. flammable; inciting strong emotions. Right now I'm feeling angry, but not motivated enough to write an incendiary article. I'm thinking about my career and wordering whether it is incipient, or actually just insipid...?
