No passion?

Ok, so people are always asking me what I wanna do when I grow up or w/e, but I have no clue. So when I tell them this they always ask the obvious question; what do you like 2 do? And everyone around me seems to be passionate about something, whether or not they want to follow it in the future as a career. And I no sum ones gonna say sumthin like dont worry, you just havent really explored everything, thers definitely sumthin out there for u. This may be true but then why have I explored so many different things and yet feel so indifferent? Im scared im not going to lead a happy life if I dont know what makes me happy, so yea if you have any thoughts or w/e leave them. Theres no specific question here, its just me wanting to know if im the only one.

Answer #1

You are only 14 years old! There is no need to rush into planning your future and deciding what you want to be - you have PLENTY of time. Don’t worry about it - you will find something that you like or are interested in time. For now just enjoy being a kid - it doesn’t last forever.

Answer #2

You haven’t found what your life’s ambition is yet - there’s nothing wrong with that.

Most people go through about 3 career changes before finally finding out what they want to do.

Answer #3

I am 39 and I am just beginning to figure out what I am passionate about, I have worn many hats in the past 21 years, everything I did was simply to survive. I have always helped people as much as I could and now I am pursueing a part time job that will allow me to do just that- help people.

mandyloo gave you a great piece of advice- be young while you can, sometimes attempting to focus on a problem is the wrong approach, just have fun- relax- and the bigger picture will present itself to you.
