Answer 5

The fact that you're even thinking about this at your age shows you have a higher level of intelligence than the average 13 year old.

As others said, what interests you?

The most important thing is to find a life focus that YOU ENJOY, not that just makes you the most money. Hopefully you can find something that does both.

Once you find what interests you, you can research the jobs in that field and focus on one of them as a goal.

If you're still not sure, I bet that other people currently working in those potential jobs would be eager to share with you what they like/dislike about their particular job.

You're already on the right path by starting to make a plan!!

Answer 6

Don't worry about it to much. Try to find something that you would consider a reflection of your personality, and don't worry if you can't find one because most people's personalities are altered by their work. In the mean time, just make sure any options you're considering are also emotionally agreeable to you right now.

Like I said before, don't worry about it, don't worry about it, and above all else, don't worry about it! In time, you will come to find that life is very, very, long; and offers plenty of time to find your true calling. Most people, in a single life time, go through at least eight different career options, so if you don't find the first one to be befitting then try another. But don't get too disappointed when you're bouncing around between jobs because each one you picked are bound to be befitting while you were in them. After all, like I said before: most peoples personalities are altered by their work, which means it was right for you at the time.
