How do I find out what I want to do with my life?

Question

Any advice?

Answer 1

Jon,

There are many books written about this search. The research librarian at your local library may know more titles, but here is the one that started it all: "What Color is Your Rainbow?" It's a good place to start.

One place to start is deciding what you are most passionate about. That's what you'll do best.

Answer 2

whatever gave you the most joy and sparked your imagination  as a young child...

could be animals, could be writing, could be helping others, could be travel, could be planes, could be be music, could be building things, could be taking things apart...

point is, whatever that thing, or those things were,  it will give you some idea of what you're here to do.

another test is this: if there is something in your life that when engaged in it, you lose all track of time - this is definitely a clue

Answer 3

you should get to know what you are interested in and what you find very exciting and with which you will not be bored......

like if you like photographing then you can choose that as a profession....but you have to be the best in whatever you do......gud luck...

Answer 4

explore your world, try knowing yourself more

find out what are your best interests and try to keep yourself occupied with them. that way you can enjoy living your life. it'll help give a meaning.

Answer 5

make a decision that you are on an active quest to find out - and see yourself as a researcher - then put yourself in the way  of lots of trial  experiences - follow your nose and live in the moment but find time to take an overall look at what you are finding out  about yourself and others and your wants - and if your bliss is out there you'll find it.

(voluntary work is a good experience)

I found quite a lot of things to do that turned me on.

Answer 6

You have to find out what your desires are first. Get in touch with your heart, your motives, what you find pleasing and comfortable-then take it from there when your ready. That's my advice.

Answer 7

Find out first what do you want to achieve, and be realistic.  If one wants to be a bum then let him the best bum in the valley.  Be the best you can be, and not the image others would want you to become.  And in that same process excel to better yourself.

Answer 8

To live at this very moment

Answer 9

Volunteer, READ,expose yourself to all the arts,sciences,internships, hobbies. The library has reference books that describe occupations, their salary, popularity,detail and whats expected in the job. Good luck

Answer 10

find your creator first.
