In the future i can see myself doing different things. I see myself on a path leaning towards psychology or something related to the study of the brain and how it works. Psychology takes a lot of training and time and i am not sure if all of the time and effort is worth it.
In an article called Are you on the right path? by Alice G Walton, it says “You can always help humanity by, for example, working at a refugee camp in Kenya or at a homeless shelter in your own town. But providing psychological services to people takes a lot of training.” What interest me about psychology is how the brain works and how there is a possibility that i could be helping people. But what doesn’t interest me is all of the effort and work put into something that may not end up being what i expected. Ive always been told that a lot of people who study psychology end up being student counselors and that is not what I want.
Another career or “side hustle,” as some may call it, is something related to children services or something in art. Wether that be dance, singing, acting, painting, or even writing. Sometimes I think I would like to be a public figure. If thats in social media, tv, or anything else.
I know I don’t have my life planned out, I am only 13 years old and sometimes it might work for people to have their life planned out but for me it doesn’t. I don’t know what I am going to be or do. Taking the CA career zone survey it made me realize that the jobs or careers that work for me are things in children services, something where i get to be social and/or help people. Those are the jobs i know i am cut out for. I know some jobs like that don’t always work out.
But I believe that anyone of these jobs or paths are right for me and i know its going to be hard and ill have to learn to be patient but i know one day I will find the right path and ill be and do what is meant for me.
