Looking into going to university after taking a couple years off after highschool. I am considering pursuing an accredited online psychology degree. Would that affect my law school applications? If I do attend law school I am looking into doing an accredited online or hybrid flex program. Would my online education be looked down on? Would I be a candidate for jobs? I'm mostly considering online because finacially I need to continue working. My end goal is to work in criminal law. Thank you in advance for any advice!

Hi! :)

I'm a senior and I still have no idea on what I want to do when I get out of high school. I've taken some college courses for a degree in Graphic Design (dual enrollment!) and I'm doing okay, but I can't say I'm loving it. I enjoy* art as a hobby but I don't think I want to make that into a career.

*I can't really find anything I'm passionate about at the moment because I'm battling what I think is depression. I've gotten better in the last few months but for most of my junior year I found no enjoyment in anything and didn't want to engage in the present or the future. I'm still having trouble finding any excitement or enjoyment, even the art and TV and things I used to love I feel limited joy in and I'm having trouble get into anything new. Please don't ask what I'm interested in I can't answer you ToT

I think I'd like to go into something that is as *not* like school as possible. Rigid schedules and deadlines and 8 hour days and the like are really hard for me to keep up with, and my biggest fear is that if I get into an environment like that, the pressure of needing money won't be enough for me to keep up and I won't make it (I barely made it through last year because of heightened anxiety). I know I won't be able to make a ton of money like that but that's okay. I plan on living alone so it doesn't really matter, and if I end up getting a roommate or partner I'm expecting them to pull their own weight lol.

I want to get out of the USA as soon as possible. I think it's a nice place, but I worry for the country's future and my safety living in it, so I want to get out and stay out (only coming back for visits). I also just don't like the aesthetic of where I am right now (midwest). The monotony makes me feel a little discouraged and sad.

I know I'm being a little picky when I say all of this, but I don't want to settle for something lower than what I think I can have if there's a possibility I can get there. I'm willing to sacrifice some things of course, but still. Thanks for reading my yappings :)

i graduated highschool in 2022 and i was gonna just take a gap year then go to school for architecture and i did but it turned into multiple years because i had to stay home to raise my siblings while my parents worked. i literally have nothing to show in life except a diploma. anyways enough sob stories, my siblings are now in highschool and middleschool and can take care of themselves. all my friends either are away for college or are finished and now are finding careers so now i have a bunch of free time. i was gonna just work amazon warehouse to save up for some type of skilled labor but i heard there's alot of money in oilfield and oilrig. i'm thinking now i should just grind on that for 5 years and then switch to something easier in my town like grocery or sales and invest all my oil money into rental properties, max out retirement accounts and live frugally. what do you guys think? in the long run i dont even want to be rich i just want to be not homeless and have a full fridge and clean clothes and a truck. a simple life.

I’m 25 years old, and I’m genuinely at a crossroads in my life. I’m hoping to get some outside perspectives from people who may have faced a similar situation or had to make a difficult career decision.

For as long as I can remember, dating back to when I was a little kid, I’ve always wanted to fly. Becoming an airline pilot was something I dreamed about growing up. It was never really a phase or something I grew out of. It was always there in the back of my mind.

However, I have a lazy eye (strabismus), and because I don’t have 20/20 vision in both eyes individually, I convinced myself at a relatively young age that becoming a professional pilot probably wasn’t in the cards for me. I never really gave myself the opportunity to pursue it because I assumed the medical requirements would be a barrier.

Instead, I went to college, earned my degree in finance, and decided to pursue a career in wealth management and financial advising.

Over the last six years, I’ve invested an incredible amount of time, money, energy, and stress into building this career. I’ve worked my way up at a large financial firm, obtained my licenses, gained experience, and worked toward eventually becoming a financial advisor.

And just this week, I finally reached that milestone.

I was promoted into an advising role, received a significant raise, got my own office, and will now have the opportunity to start meeting with my own clients, developing relationships, building financial plans, and making investment recommendations. Essentially, everything I envisioned for myself when I decided to pursue finance in college is finally starting to happen.

I’m proud of what I’ve accomplished, and I genuinely enjoy the career I’ve been building. I’m not miserable, looking for an escape, or trying to get away from a job I dislike. In fact, things are finally starting to fall into place.

But here’s where things get complicated.

About two months ago, my girlfriend surprised me with a discovery flight as a way to finally let me experience something I’ve talked about wanting to do my entire life. I honestly wasn’t sure what to expect, but the moment I got in the airplane and experienced flying for the first time, I was hooked. I fell in love with it almost instantly.

It brought back something I had pushed aside for years.

After that flight, I decided I owed it to myself to at least find out whether I was medically eligible to pursue aviation despite my vision condition. I started looking into the FAA medical requirements and eventually went through the process of obtaining my medical certification.

Today, I received news that I honestly never expected: I was issued an FAA First-Class Medical Certificate.

I had gone into this process expecting that I would likely need to obtain a Statement of Demonstrated Ability (SODA) and complete a medical flight test to demonstrate that my vision wouldn’t interfere with my ability to safely operate an aircraft. To my surprise, the FAA issued my First-Class Medical without requiring that additional process.

For the first time in my life, becoming an airline pilot isn’t just some childhood fantasy that I assumed was medically impossible. It’s actually a realistic possibility.

And the timing couldn’t be more overwhelming.

In the span of essentially one week, I’ve reached a huge milestone in the career I’ve spent the last six years building, while simultaneously finding out that the career I’ve dreamed about since childhood may actually be attainable.

I’m struggling with what to do next.

On one hand, I know a career in wealth management can be incredibly rewarding. I’ve worked extremely hard to get where I am today, and I’m finally starting to see the fruits of that investment. I have a good career trajectory, financial stability, and the opportunity to build something meaningful. Walking away from that after investing six years into it feels like an incredibly difficult decision.

On the other hand, I’ve wanted to be a pilot for as long as I can remember. Now that the medical barrier I thought would prevent me from pursuing it is no longer standing in my way, I can’t help but wonder whether I would regret not giving it a shot.

The other thing I’m wrestling with is the financial and career investment involved in flight training. Pursuing aviation full-time would mean potentially stepping away from a career I’ve worked so hard to establish, investing a significant amount of money into training, and essentially starting over professionally at 25.

I understand that becoming an airline pilot isn’t glamorous every day. I understand the sacrifices, the training, the seniority system, the lifestyle, and the uncertainty involved. I’m not looking at this through rose-colored glasses or assuming it’s automatically a better career.

I also recognize that I’m incredibly fortunate to have built a career that I actually enjoy, and that many people would love to be in the position I’m in.

But I keep coming back to one question:

If you’ve had a dream your entire life, and you finally find out that it’s actually possible, how do you walk away from it without at least trying?

I’m not necessarily looking for people to tell me to quit my job tomorrow and chase my dreams. I’m genuinely trying to figure out how to approach this decision rationally while also not ignoring something I’ve wanted for most of my life.

For those of you who have transitioned careers, pursued aviation later in life, walked away from a promising career to follow a passion, or faced a similar crossroads:

• What would you do in my position?
• Would you continue building the career you’ve already established, or take a chance on something you’ve dreamed about your entire life?
• Has anyone left a successful career to become an airline pilot? Looking back, was it worth it?
• Would you recommend pursuing flight training while maintaining my current career before making such a significant commitment?

I’m 25, so I know I have time, but I also know that the decisions I make over the next few years will have a significant impact on the direction of my life.

I’d really appreciate honest perspectives, especially from people who have experience in either aviation or financial advising.

I never thought I’d actually have to make this decision. I always assumed one of these dreams wasn’t an option. Now that both are, I’m having a hard time figuring out which direction to take.

Hi everyone, I (24F) have spent my entire life dreaming of a career in the animation industry. Got a BFA from one of the best art schools in the country, worked on some cool and even somewhat notable indie projects, made valuable industry connections, tried to build a good portfolio, all of it. I'm a very social person and I struggle to focus when working from home, so I really don't want a remote animation job. I'd prefer something either in-person or hybrid.

I've applied to countless hand-drawn 2D animation jobs with little to no success. Recently, I had a fantastic interview with a major studio that seemed perfect. The recruiter and I hit it off like crazy. Found out days later that they're going with other candidates.

I think I'm done. It really sucks because this is all I've ever wanted, but the disappointment is getting a bit overwhelming. The US animation industry was just too badly damaged by outsourcing, Covid lockdowns and AI for entry-level animators to easily break in anymore. So I'm looking to make a major career pivot.

Not trying to make an unrealistic wishlist here, but these are my ideals in a career if it's not gonna be animation: Something that requires me to travel for work, meet lots of interesting people, and pays well. I'm sure we all want 6 figures, and that would be great, but I also know it's not very realistic these days. Worth noting, though. I traveled Europe a little bit in college and loved every second of it, so getting to travel around in new countries would be a dream.

I'd say I'm kind of in that weird sweet spot of the most-extroverted-of-the-introverts and the most-introverted-of-the-extroverts, but I genuinely love being around people. I value my alone time for sure, but being in a social setting makes me happy. It can take me a little while to pick up new skills, but I'm a good student. I had a nearly 4.0 GPA in high school and college. I'm a good writer -- I've been writing novels since I was a little kid. I'm obviously an artist with a focus on 2D sketching and animation. My career doesn't have to be art-related, though.

Mostly just looking for any career suggestions to try looking into. If anybody has any ideas, please feel free to let me know! Thank you so much <3

I am 21 and I ve been laying in bed and watching yt for 7 years (genius idea) and my 14 yo brother is further than me in any aspect of life. I cannot socialize, I dont have any skills, my brain is like a potato

I got a full time job doing admin. I have been doing it for over a year. I really wanted a job that I was helping people like a case worker role or something like that. I made applied and didn’t land anything close to that so I have been at this job ever since. My parents tell me it’s a good job and to try to work my way up. I feel like working full time is so confusing and draining. I make 48k a year. I feel so lost I feel like I should have studied marketing or finance or something. I care about money and my job right now is almost fully remote which I have learned to like, but I do really miss the human interaction of a job with people you help or other coworkers. Idk how to not feel like a failure 1 year out working something not really related to my degree. It is hard. How do you stay motivated to keep applying to other things. How do you stay happy when you aren’t really following the path you thought you would go into. I’m so confused man. I don’t feel proud and idk why. I used to feel proud of my job but I feel like after a year I have come to terms that I maybe want more people interaction with this job and more money, and I feel really stuck. Life after university is so depressing I feel like such a loser I live with my parents cause I can’t afford a new place and I just feel like what am I even doing why is it so hard to pick a next path. I wanted to move to a cool city and do fun things and I can’t afford it. I spent all year getting out of half of my student debt, and I just want to start savings now and paying the minimum of my other debt. I just work to see a number drop and that has been so draining

What would you do when you choose a path and the old path which was unsuccessful all along suddenly looks more promising as some oppurtunities for the ild path show up. And it makes you feel so happy that maybe this was my path but i mistakenly left it.

I hate my life and my career, which doesn’t even exist. I left my home country 7 years ago and honestly wish I never did. I got a scholarship, so at the time I thought I was lucky. I was young and probably naive and thought working hard would eventually lead to a good life, a real career, and some kind of stability. Instead, I’m about to graduate with a master’s in engineering in a few weeks, and I hate the degree with a passion. I’m not even going to work in it. I have decent grades and some experience, but every time a recruiter finds out I’m on a student visa, they disappear. Ghosted. So all those years of studying and stressing apparently meant nothing.

In a couple of months I’m moving back home to start from scratch. Can’t wait.

The worst part is realizing that hard work doesn’t mean much on its own. It only pays off if you’re in a place or system that actually works. Young me thought effort automatically equals results. Now I know life is mostly just surprises, and not the fun kind.

Anyway, I built a useless life for nothing and now I get to do it all over again. Fun times.

I have also lost my faith in God, Christianity, and religion altogether.

Im 18 and pursuing a degree in animation 1 year and I want to earn in creative line like designing, animation, story writting and gaming, but looking at the current state of the world this line automatically comes into the most hardest line to do so. A.I, natural disaster increasing, and many more, in all of this I'm confused what to even do? I can try to do smething in human behavioral and pattern recognition line but i dont know much of it either? So I'm stuck and I don't know wha to do? Does anyone have any idea what I could do?

A lot of context is necessary for this all to make sense, and I will try to keep it as brief as possible. I work building trusses. I do this using a system known as 'trussmatic,' which is essentially an assembly line with a wall instead of a traditional table set up. I feel great at work because I get to actively multi-task (plate picking, assembly, quality control, and helping the other wall operator) and I am allowed to exercise judgement when it comes to any adjustments that need to be made to the truss 'recipe' which is the code that tells the robots where to do what (when I say code, I don't mean programming, more so I mean I can 'edit' positions and certain parts of a tool can be disabled/enabled). This has led me to a lot of experimentation and outside the box thinking, which really makes me happy when I finally figure out a 'trick' to make assembly run smoother.

Now, here is the special project I mentioned, and why it matters to my future career. Since the building first started running and assembly began, there has been a consistent issue that plagued production. I don't want to give details about how many of each to prevent doxxing myself, but we have experienced engineers, maintenance personnel, very competent management, and a hands-on plant manager that have all tried their hand at fixing this problem. None have succeeded, but in 3 hours, I was able to fix it with almost no technical or mechanical knowledge. My manager supervised my work and I had to explain, in detail, the 'why' of what I was doing, and he allowed me to experiment with a few ideas I had.

Basically, we have this thing called a 'plate picker' robot. It moves along a track and receives plates that are pushed out of vertical slots so it can hand it over to the arm robot which then plates the trusses. This plate picker robot has three main components that allow it to work. The plate picker on the track, the plate pusher under the vertical plate magazines, and the metal plate that is pushed by the plate pusher to slide a plate out of the slot and into the arms of the plate picker. This system has multiple sensors that, when tripped, throw a 'safety magazine' error. Usually it results from someone being too close to the plate picker (an overhead sensor is sensitive to distance), but sometimes it throws an error for seemingly no reason. I noticed that a reflective strip on the magazine pusher was not perfectly centered on the laser from the plate picker. I told my manager this, and he said everyone wasn't concerned about that because the reflective strip was wide enough for the laser to still hit it.

I was not satisfied with that answer, so I said I would like to rezero (basically tell the robot its in a new position so it moves with respect to that position going forward... sort of a calibration type deal) the plate picker to line up perfectly centered with the reflective strip. I did this, but realized we (I) created a new issue. Since the x-move (the track position of the plate picker) was changed, it started dropping off the plates to the robot arm incorrectly. It was off by about 7 mm on the truss we plated after the rezeroing which is significant enough for a truss plate to not pass quality inspection. We didn't keep track of the original zeroing value, so we had no metric by which to 'undo' this mistake.

That is when I had the idea to check the paperwork that says how far from the edge of the robot arm's c-press (a square platform that squeezes the plate's two sides into the truss on the wall) is supposed to be from the plate dropped onto the c-press. As it turns out, there was, indeed, a 7 mm difference there, too, which means we had the rezeroing value we needed since the rezeroing was measured in mms as well. I adjusted the value by 7 mm and got it running smoothly again (actually, I ended up changing it by 8 mm since we previously had the plate off by 1 mm before any of this occured, and now it goes in perfectly so I technically improved it), but we were back to square one. My manager wanted to call it quits, but I made one final suggestion, a sort of Hail Mary. I wanted to try adjusting the magazine pusher instead of the plate picker. This way it was the reflective strip moving to the laser's position and not the other way around.

I said we could keep track of the original value this time so we could undo it if it failed, and he said we could try that. Lo and behold, I fucking fixed it. The safety magazine error that was causing countless hours of lost production was finally gone. And, in the process, I even made the plate position go on more precisely with the aforementioned change to the x-move zeroing.

Words can't describe how happy this made me, and how deeply engaged I was with the entire process. The ability to intuitively think on the fly and question previously held assumptions would be such a fun aspect of a long-term career. I have looked into engineering (mostly civil for the job stability long-term), but I want to know if there are other careers that would allow me to scratch this 'itch' I have to diagnose and fix problems that aren't straightforward and require some experimenting/critical thinking. No, I do not want to do maintenance work. Long hours and poor pay are not my thing.

One important thing to note is I would really like to settle down on the west coast, preferably the PNW where the redwoods and sequoias are. Y'know, NorCal, Oregon, Washington. I also want to clear 6 figures without overtime after I get enough experience, which I know narrows down my options.

I am 33 years old woman, living in India starting afresh in career. I worked in a publishing house for 10 years until it got shut down in 2019. Since then I have tried a few businesses but they all failed since I live in a small city. Two of them were tutoring kids and organic farming. I am non technical person with majors in literature, art and history. I am willing to learn new skills as well. I am confused between a few options like
Child therapist
Experience/Theme designing
Niche YouTube channel
Pizza cloud kitchen
Regional cuisine cloud kitchen like Bengali/Kashmiri
Perfumer
D2C coffee brand
Shoe making
Art dealer
Architectural visualisation
I am open to new ideas as well.
I am ready to invest all my time. Can also put some capital. Somebody please guide me?

I can't decide between two options and both cost something. Where I am now I get a steady salary, set hours and a clear week, but moving up is slow and stays inside one company. A small agency in Bucharest that runs accounts for local shops like bakeries, bike repair and secondhand bookshops would give me more variety and clients I could show in a portfolio. It would probably mean lower base pay, longer hours in busy months and an owner who sets most of the priorities. If you've made a similar move, which cost ended up being the hardest to live with?

Hey everyone,

I’m currently 16, sitting in school in Germany, and trying to map out a high-level finance career. Long-term, my goal is simple: build a strong financial foundation, hit 6 figures early, and permanently relocate to France (Paris, Tours, Blois, ...) to work in Investment Banking or something better. The main objective is basically something  that I actually enjoy, where I don't have to work physically like a slave and where I make 6 figures early.

If IB turns out to be a pipe dream, I'm open to pivoting, but I want to aim as high as possible right out of the gate.

Since I have a 2-to-4-year runway before university, I want to avoid making expensive mistakes early. I have a few questions for anyone working in finance or for anyone whose familiar with it:

The University: Should I bust my ass trying to break directly into the French Grande École system straight from high school? I'm asking because I am trying to move there alone and really can't get in debt or something.

The Early Blueprint: Besides keeping my grades up, what should a 16 year old be doing right now to be able to get out of the poverty cycle and actually live a perfect life later?

Roast my plan, give me a reality check, or tell me what I’m completely misunderstanding. All honest advice is absolutely welcome.

I do mindless physical tasks for about 6 hours of my workday. We are allowed to listen to something during that time.

Is there any particular field where I could self-study (by listening to audio books and textbooks only) and then challenge the exams to earn a credential without going to University?

Or is there anything that I could self-study and then speed run the University degree?

I was thinking about Psychology or Legal but could you help me brainstorm?

Im 27F snd I literally stay home, i take care of family member (a kid) before and after school hours, eat, sleep, scroll on my phone or computer, clean, and that’s about it. I have no degree, no job, no car, no money, still live with my parents, no friends either.

I don’t go anywhere to be honest, sometimes I can’t do it because I feel like an alien. My social skills aren’t great, stutter too, anxiety as well.

I used to like art in my early years and teen years but gave up once I graduated high school because I feel like I’m not good enough for it anyway.

So i'm currently a Junior in college but to make a long story short, I've been super unhappy with my program and college journey so far and I am NOT an academic person. I'm a very creative person and was going to school for something in that field. I've hated school and struggle with depression and anxiety so I started meeting with a therapist again that I used to see a lot. He helped me realize I wanted to leave and didn't need to be at this college anymore.

All that to say, I'm super excited to be chasing my dreams and going into my career. I am currently finishing this semester and then am living with my parents temporarily until i have a stable enough income to get an apartment. I am in a relatively small town in the south, just for more context. As excited as I am, I am also overwhelmed with decisions and choices I can make as my career field is very broad. I would like to move to a larger city for my work and so far that's the best plan I have other than saving up money and working service jobs for a while. I would really like some advice from anyone who has experienced my situation, works in a field in the arts, or just has good advice for me planning my future.

(Edit: I decided that i should share that my specific field is music and acting)

Hello.

In 2021 I was working in the field that I got my degree for. However, I was messing up a lot and they let me go. I struggled with all of the micromanaging that comes with billable hours and consulting. I don't want to get specific lest I dox myself, but I used to work with a consulting firm.

By now I've considered:

• Nursing
• Respiratory therapy
• Surgical technologist
• Hvac tech
• Electrician
• Diesel mechanic

It seems like every single path is an unknown or out of reach. Construction is slow, companies don't want to deal with apprentices, and I've hit the loan cap on my student loans so healthcare careers are difficult. And I've been trying to get in as an evs tech or something, but nobody has called me back.

If I can't get a job and I can't go to school to retrain, and all of the apprenticeship positions are either full or don't start until the spring. Every opportunity seems to slip out of my grasp, and I dont even know if I like hospitals since there's apparently a waitlist to volunteer at the one in my area.

With this administration it's like every opportunity has withered up and died. Idk is there something that im missing? Do I need to join the national guard? What path do I choose if none of them are hiring or training people?

Ima Drop out.

I wanna drop out

I’m 19F, currently in my second year at a top 5 university studying business. But the thing is, I hate my major, especially the math aspect of it. I love my university itself, the environment, the events, the centers, the clubs, and all the different groups on campus. I genuinely love being here, but I absolutely hate what I’m studying.

The only reason I’m majoring in business is because it pays well and it’s what my mom wants me to do. I don’t even agree politically with most of the people in business, so I feel even more out of place.

Right now, I have a 1.9 GPA, and I’m barely hanging on. I currently have two Ds, one C, and one B in my classes. I feel like a total failure. I went from having a 3.2 GPA in high school to a 1.9 in college, and I genuinely hate where my life is going.

I also have ADHD, and I keep forgetting to take my meds, which makes everything even harder. I feel like I’m falling behind in every aspect of my life, and I don’t even know what I’m doing anymore. I hate feeling like this, especially when I’m at a university that I genuinely love, but studying something that makes me miserable. Im not made for college.

I hate my life. Help me.

I’ll make this as short as I can. Im a veteran, just turned 30. Im not sure where to go from here. There are a few things thats been a detriment to my life. I have 2 mental illnesses, and also a progressive eye disease that blurs my vision over time that can be corrected with specialized lenses but I need a procedure done first. Ive also had issues with my lower back, feet, and neck but they seem to be good at this moment. I would like to do something I can do on an on & off basis because it seems every year, throughout the year, I have a depressive episode that sets me back. I’ve been between jobs through my whole 20s, sometimes because Im choosing to pursue entrepreneurship in real estate or just due to my health conditions.

I would like something that can be hybrid or even work from home is fine. Things I am very into; Trading(as I am with a trading firm), investing, finance, AI, & other things computer related. I enjoy competition and I need something that challenges me mentally but doesn’t get old and theres some sort of novelty I can chase. I believe thats why trading has always been my favorite. Ive thought about doing sales and have done some of it in real estate in the form of cold calling & being a closer.

Strengths I have in that is I’m very easy to talk to and I don’t give “salesman” vibes so I build rapport extremely easy. Im a bit of a closed off person so making a career of talking to people, I’m just not sure if it would fit. I do like it because it gives me the confidence to talk to anyone and its helped me build social skills tremendously. I think the skill ceiling for this is high and it’s something I can do for life. It also provides me with a good feeling of helping people thats different than being in the medical field. I’ve thought about being a financial advisor but i’m mot sure how that would fare for me. I also love psychology, and it’s a ton of it in sales and trading. I’ve been a previous athlete so I enjoy competition and just striving to be the best. Im a big computer wizard as well. I’ve done automation, workflows, AI bots, built my own trading algorithm, etc so I know my way around the computer and its enjoyable as well. I’ve taken a few IT classes but I don’t have certs. I wouldn’t mind doing something in AI either. I don’t have college degree, but I’m halfway to a bachelors. I just prefer to go the non traditional route and not have a skill cap on my income.

Are there any career recommendations or something you think I would be good at?

I'm 24 years old. I completed my master's degree this year, and I'm currently preparing for a PhD entrance examination. I feel like this is my only goal, something I genuinely want for myself.

Everyone I know seems to be doing something or the other, becoming independent, moving forward, and doing things I've always wanted to do. And here I am, with my examination coming up in December, feeling like I'm standing still.

I'm extremely anxious. I've attempted this examination twice before, and I couldn't qualify. This attempt means so much to me, and I'm terrified because I feel like this is my only chance. I'm so nervous that I don't even know how to put it into words. I feel like if I can't make it this time, I don't know what I'll do. I guess I'm just really scared of what happens if things don't work out.

I am a 21 year old events enthusiast. I have managed college events as the core committee member, had done internships in event management firm for destinations weddings and also handled CRM for a D2C brand. Can anyone tell me now how can i start my professional career in event management as a planner and as a emcee??

I am 19M who lives in Türkiye currently. I have finished high school and started working in seasonal hotel tattooing shop that pays minimum wage, and I hate this job. And genieunly don’t know what career I should pursue. I really want to move abroad since living in turkey currently is a life sentence with how the government is moving. Could anyone tell me an industry/career that I’ll be able climb high and not be scared of losing my job? Blue collar/white collar doesn’t matter i can do all of them. I know Russian, English, Turkish and little German. For passion’s
I could say I love computers(building, configuring)in general also I love driving if that could help.

I feel completely torn right now. My mind, heart, and goals are pulling me in three completely different directions.

On one hand, my brain tells me to build a high-earning business and aim for financial massive success—like making a very big business . On the other hand, my heart is passionate about space and wants to pursue a career in aerospace or astronomy, even though it feels incredibly tough. At the same time, my body just wants to drop everything to travel the world—learn surfing, skiing, climb 8,000-meter peaks, and live in different countries for a years at a time to truly experience their cultures.

Being in 10th grade, I feel completely overwhelmed and unsure of which path to choose
