What should i choose for my future..???

Question

I wanted to be a jeweler designer. All of my friends and teachers at school supported me to become a jeweler designer; but my dad doesn’t want me to become a jeweler designer. He wants me to become a doctor. His reason is because if I become a doctor, I don’t have to work as hard as if I’m a jeweler designer and get a much bigger salary. When I tell this to my favorite teacher, she said to be a female doctor is also hard; because then I have to do my work and care about my future family though a doctor doesn’t always stay in a place. What should I do…???

Answer 1

either a doc a law person or a athlete

Answer 2

Choose what YOU want to do, not your father or anyone else. Its your life and you have to live it. Yes being a DR is fantastic, but very hard and emotionally painful work. A jewellery designer is a brilliant and rewarding career, and if that is what you want to do, then do it.

The world has enough Drs already

Answer 3

oh boy... bow to parental pressure, or follow ones heart.........

Try this as a compromise and see if it flies:

Go to college, make sure to take the science courses, but also take some art/design classes. get BA/BS. Make the decision in a few years when you are in college.

You can always do jewelery design as a hobby/part time business while in college also.....

Good luck.

Answer 4

It's a long and hard road to becoming a doctor.  No doubt the financial reward is first class afterwards.  A jewelery designer has a long and hard road to becoming successful.  The probability of having financial security similar to a doctor may not be as high.

The bottom line is, which will you be happy as?  Trust your own gut feeling deep down.  Do what you will enjoy most and happy with.  What if your dad wants you to become a lawyer or a dentist instead?
