What do you want to be when your older ?

I'll be 24 next year and i still don't know what i want to do been to college loads of times but something usually comes up, i leave the course etc by the time next term starts to apply again i have doubts if that's what i even want to do....

anybody else like this ?

 

I am 24 right now and still haven't a clue. I discovered I enjoy cooking, though, so I might just stick with that. I just need to find a place that pays better.

 

I'm almost done with my course and I doubt if it's what I wanna do, is that close enough?

 

Present.

 

curator.

but idk how ill get from point a to b. I, for some reason think it'll ruin it for myself for that to be the first thing i do, so i'm thinking about doing a more business-like path to set up for being an artist and/or curator. and so i have a good stable base of income. but for right now, i'm having problems being motivated towards something. and idk what more serious direction i'd like to go in, science? psychology? linguist? political journalist?

 

Sometimes I wonder if many people out there know what they want to do...or are doing what they are happy with. It's funny that you bring this topic up because I was sitting at the credit union today thinking about it. All these people have the same education as me (just a high school diploma), but they likely make a LOT more money than I do, but are they really happy? Is this where they saw themselves as kids? Is it a career or just a job? Are they doing it because they love it...or because of the money? I'm not even sure I'll ever be settled on what I really really want to do. I guess some people just get lucky and know...I don't think that happens for everyone.

 

I'm gonna be a geoscientist :love:.

Took me almost my entire degree to figure out how I could apply it and what I wanted to be. It's a great feeling to have a semi-plan for the next few years.

 

I'm 20 and have been in university for 2.5 years. I still don't know what I want to do. I'm interested in a lot of different things. It's too bad that society is set up in such a way that if you want to make money, you need to specialize in some area: medicine, lawyer, business, etc. People need to find a job they like because they spend most of their time doing it. Only the very lucky Arts people can make a living just doing what they love: and then people obsess over them, so even they no longer can have the peace they desire.

Society is no longer set up for people to 'think' like men once did about philosphy, instead it is set up that everyone has something very specific they need to accomplish for the good of society. It's scary how specialized everyone is becoming: society is becoming more of a system where each individual does it's part to keep the larger complex stable.

Perhaps we are the cells to a larger system called Economy. Ugh, gross.

Right now I just want to make some good money: perhaps go into Radiography. Then after a few years of making good money, just save, buy a van, and just live on my own in the middle of nowhere. I don't want to become a part of a system when my interests vary from art to science to psychology to philosophy. I want to work on my way of thinking and advancing, not society's. Unfortunately, unless I become a monk, no one will pay me to advance my mind

Seriously though, I will just stick with the job I have now until I die or retire, I'm to lazy to try to learn something new and start over.
