I need your help ladies! I am about to drop out of school becuse I cannot concentrat

[Plenty]

on my course without knowing what career field I should be in.

Hobbies
Learning about health and nutrition
Fitness and stregnth training (at least I want to learn)
I like my math and physics courses
My mom says I should be a manager because she thinks I am bossy
She says that I shouldn't be a doctor because I wouldn't want to touch the patients

I like rhetoric
Sales
Customer service
being involved in science
I have a vast amout of "people skills"
I don't know I want to do!
I love literature, ettiquete and history

My heart is so heavy. I cannot even take a deep breath. I have been harassing so many people about what my career field should be. I am afraid to ask them anymore.

One thing I do like is problem solving. Problem solving anything. I like coming up with ideas to fix things and make them run more smoothly.

One thing that bothers me is the fact that I am good at math and I cannot think of a career that includes math. Since math is hard for a lot of people, I really feel like I should be utilizing that skill.

Money is also important. 5 bedroom house, Bmw's out back, etc.

This is my last semester before I obtain my AA degree, and I am about to drop all my classes for the third or forth time in four years. I have been working on my AA for 4 years know.

I am so frustrated with wasting this much time and money. Most importantly I want to make my mom and dad proud. I cannot even make self proud.

I know the Lord is with me because I feel peace. I just cannot figure out what I should do.

Thanks for your help and prays in advance if you think of something

Definitely don't do anything rash. God didn't build the world in a day, so don't drop out of school in a day. Pray about what direction your life could be taking. Maybe you could be a nutritionist, or homeopathic doctor (if you aren't interested in medical school). It sounds like you are interested in overall health and well-being. People like that have infinite career options (i.e. you could do research and come up with ways people could improve the quality of their lives, from the way they eat (hint: you could sell cookbooks) to the way they incorporate fitness into their lives (i.e. take the stairs, etc) and how to decompress during a stressful day or event.

Although a lot of people don't know it, these things are all connected. Often, when we feel stressed, we don't exercise or eat well, and that's bad. So, just give it to God, and he will show you what to do.

This is what someone told me once. Nobody cares what your degree is in as long as you have one. With that said my advice is DON'T DROP OUT, SILLY! LOL. I go through this every semester, but I think about it this way at least I'm making progress toward something. Ever think about being a physical therapist? This satisfies all of those desires of yours. 1. Learning about health and nutrition- you learn all that stuff about whats good for you, and what you need to do to stay healthy and a whole bunch of other stuff. 2. Fitness and strength training- you learn about it and then teach others what fitness and strength training they need to maintain. 3. You like math and physics courses- You know thats all you'll be taking for your B.S. degree (if your going into a medical field)...M.S is when you get into all that stuff that pertains to the specific field you are going into. 4. Mom think you should be a manager because she thinks you are bossy- You'll need to be "bossy" because you'll be the boss of you're own practice. 5. She says you should be a doctor- I'm saying though! I like rhetoric- I don't know about all that he he. I guess your notes will be grameicaly corrck(<-------I said I didnt know about all that ). 6. Customer service- Need this to run your own practice. 7. Being involved in science- This is too easy. 8. Good "people skills"- You'll have a lot of patients you need to be able to relate and make them comfortable. 8. ~*THE BIG ONE*~Most of all you like math and want a 5 bedroom house, BMW out back, and a whole bunch of money- Huummm....let me think......While you are "calculating" that you made 250,000 for the year from your home office of you 5 bedroom house, you'll be looking outback through the window at your New BMW 7 series. I dont know if that sounds like you or not but all you gotta do is take a deep breath stay moving forward in something. It will all work out just DON'T STOP! I'm praying for you........Now I just gotta figure out what I'm gonna do.

Harass God but be gentle with Him because we all love Him so much. It sounds like from your quote above you have harass everyone but Him. He made you so nobody knows you better than Him and your momma. We all have been a fork in the road don't worry no need to be stress it will all work out. This is growing pains. One of the hardest things about growing up is making decsions. I try not to bat my eyes without asking God. Get closer and closer to Him through prayer time and fellowship and He will reveal to you why He made you. If you do not get an answer wait and stay in His face with praise, prayer and worship. Love you and hope I know all work out well for you. Take one day at a time and don't stress you could have a worst problem.

I got my wish

My mother just kicked me out, boy does that help you decide quickly!


Eventhough she is an evil, hateful, and miserable person to be around. I still feel bad that I could have possible hurt her and that she feels hurt.

I bolded the things in your list that stuck out to me. You sound as if you'd be great in a service related field, owning your own company (implementing the sales and management portions).

The problem solving, nutrition, customer service and other things - I think you should maybe try looking at things like event planning, personal life style coach (where you'd help people re-arrange their eating habits, fitness goals etc).

I'm not sure about the math thing though...other than that they say that math plays elements in every career path to some extent.

If you are good at math, you can consider a career in engineering, architechture, accounting or finance. But there are also self-assessment tests that will help you identify the types of jobs that would be a good fit for you.

Re: I need your help ladies! I am about to drop out of school becuse I cannot concen

Sorry about the business with your mom. But please don't drop out of school. Most young people don't have a clear idea of they want to when they graduate. If you must take time off, get your AA first then maybe work a semester or go part-time so you won't feel so overwhelmed. Also you can still be a doctor without dealing with patients. Some doctors go into research fields, and some go into administration. I even new one who went to law school afterwards.

You seem kind of like me. I have a degree in science and one in engineering, but I also like literature, writing, and languages. There are jobs, degrees, and ways to combine all of the above. For instance anthropologist, need a background in science and history. I love helping people come up with job options and such. Let me know if you need any more help. You can pm me or write on this thread.
