when you are under 18 you are not allowed to drive but at the same age you are capable of deciding your whole life 😔

True, like it's unrealistic for students to visualize what's perfect for them in the far future when they are evolving day to day. You meet new people, learn new things, and become tired of some stuff while becoming interested in other things. That's why life progress is really about taking a bunch of small steps and reflecting as you go to see what feels right for you XD

I had no idea about my career before watching this video, but now i realize that a "perfect carrer" isn't really a thing

I'm afraid of getting a degree and eventually find interest in something else that isn't align with my degree. I'm 16. Imagining myself being stuck in a wormhole where I do the same thing again and again is what terrifies me which is why it's so hard to pick what my career is. Thank you for this. Idk why but it made me cry hahaha

My biggest issue is that I can't stick to anything and as I'm getting older it's getting worse. I can't even stick to an idea for longer than a week. And I'm usually a very decisive person

What im concerned about is investing so much money into schooling and getting that specific career and finding out if i dont like it or im not good at it. Then what?

a very knowledgeable teacher of mine once said, "Learn for the profession u love, ur good at and the world needs, and do a business or farm for money. don't be a doctor for money, u'll never be actually happy."

and the problem with medicine is that it's very easy to get stuck, as it traps you in a bubble that gives you the impression that you're skill-less outside of medicine. not to mention taking absolutely ages to get through both medical school and postgraduate/specialty training. the longer you're in it, the more trapped you feel.

I have changed careers majorly at least 5 times and I am in my early 40s. I went all in for each stage and then when the time came I put it aside and did the new thing suitable for my energy in that chapter of life. I have no regrets!
