What are you passionate about?
Personally, I like writing. I was told that a BA in English is worthless and success in writing was as hard as success in the NFL or the music industry.
I didn’t listen to them and started thinking about how I could combine what I love with what I know. How could I market myself? I had military experience fixing jets so I looked for writing careers in aerospace. Had I been a chef and interested in writing, I might have looked into writing cookbooks or writing for cooking television shows.
I think the first two years of college are an ideal way to try a little of everything (but not the only way). I started out thinking I would be an electrical engineer, only to discover that I hate math. I didn’t know I liked writing until I took a few classes and discovered an aptitude.
Basically, you have to figure yourself out. You’re going to spend massive amounts of time doing some kind of work. Just make sure it’s a mixture of marketable skill and that it’s something you care about.
There's nothing here!
