I'm almost 25 and I still have no idea what I want to do with my life :(

I was thinking of going to college and studying math to either become an engineer or a computer programmer. I excel at math and I feel accomplished when I do it, but it's not my passion or calling.

I enjoy psychology but I'm not too interested in any of the careers I can get and the degree would take too long (Masters or PHD/PsyD). Dream job would be a fiction book editor, and my dream is to make my own comic book!

I would use the funds from my STEM job to hire an illustrator and make my comic book dream real.

>passion or calling

Not to be a downer, but most people just work jobs because they get paid to do it, not because of passion or calling.

I am going throw something similar OP, It has alot to do with identity and how we loose ourselves in this day in age. For a long time and still now I asked myself alot of questions yet that I still cant answer myself.

Who am I?
What am I?
What am I supposed to be?
What am I supposed to do?

it took a long time to realize this; that my identity crisis came from a deeply profound self identification of what my race is, my sex is, and my mind is.

I had to move to a different country to just begin to find out what was going on inside my head, and I think I am finally coming to term to who I am as a person.

maybe travel anon, environment plays a MASSIVE role into shaping us into who we are. if you live in a depressed places with little to know chances of advancement, it's easy to take life and trow is away like you do a empty can of soda.

when I went to Honduras for a humanitarian aid trip I met a child who was only 13 and he told me that he hoped that there was a big war where he lived and that everyone died. environment shapes people anon. move around.

Ah ok, cool.

I started on amazon fba a month ago. Ive done 400 in sales on two items. I threw some money out not expecting it to work so well and my half assed efforts were extremely surprising.

If i got on this years ago i understand id be a millionnaire by now but its not as good as it used to be and getting worse. Probably going to sink sooner than later.

So how much should I invest to start? Any recommended programs?

Did you even read it?

I went through the same thing.
I had a multitude of interests but I couldn't settle on what I wanted to dedicate my time to.

I eventually decided; I chose something that not only would I be able to benefit from personally, but can use the degree in many different ways. My fear was to be stuck with a useless degree if my plan A doesn't work out, basically.

I think the biggest struggle is trying to find something that you can see yourself enjoying long term.
What I usually do is make a pros and cons of the choices I have, on a post education /in the workforce level. By breaking it down it usually becomes clear what you'll get tired of long term.

I flip flopped through so many different options; Metal working/glass blowing/ programming/ app development /pastry chef/horticulture/sustainable agriculture and I decided to settle on Nutrition since there's a million and one ways to use that degree plus it's a degree that can allow me to be self sufficient and work remotely if I choose to in the future.

But you know what you want out of life, I assume you have a 5/10/20 year plan.
Some career paths can allow you to achieve those goals, some will bring you down a different path.
If you don't have a future plan, maybe start there and work your way back to the career part?
