Full Careers
im 20 and i dont know what i want to do with the rest of my life.?
im in college and i still dont know what i want as a career. keep in mind, my parents come from a background where they think the only worthwhile jobs are REALLY high-paying ones. im not extremely smart. i have no passions that i know of (i mean, i LIKE certain things, but LOVE? i dont know...) is this okay? how do i find out what i should do with the rest of my life? (ps: i took a career aptitude test, ehh...) and im planning on becoming a global economics major although i dont know where that would get me. im screwed.

- It's normal, I suppose. I'm 21 myself, and am going through something similar. What I've seen that really works (more than bs aptitude tests) is actually trying out different things as far as work, hobbies, classes etc. Get a really challenging job, enroll in interesting classes and start weird hobbies. Many people are undecided for so long only because all they do is party and have a good time. Eventually too much slacking around turns into frustration when you realize your at an age in which it's to late to start the career you want.
