Yes it certainly is. Making a decision at that age used to be more or less mandatory and it seemed that once made the decision could never be reversed. Thankfully things aren't so bad now. We can look forward to having two or even three careers in a lifetime and finding your dream career by 21 is no longer essential. I think that having some work experience and finding out what you really like is a sensible way to approach deciding what you want to do.

Sometimes people get baffled thinking what to do next? There is a way out for this.. Too much dependency on others and worrying what others will think about you is the reason for this. Hence start taking decisions and start owning them whethere right or wrong, the world will be yours. Man is just like a totalitarian government that can change its decisions as they like. But cultivate the habit of analysing before taking decisions.

COMPLETELY!!!!
I graduate college at 20, went straight into a Master's program untill I was 22, worked the field until I was 25 then realized....
I DIDN'T WANT TO DO THIS ANYMORE....
Found another interest by chance.
Went back to school for it.
Been working at it for the last two years.
And I love it.
At 21, you are still to young and inexperienced about the "world" to make such a decision.
You're fine :)

Yes, you are normal.
You need to graduate college in something and go to work somewhere. That's the key. Do something! Find what's out there and as you change jobs to increase your income, maybe you'll find something that is your passion. I hope it makes you a living, though.

Absolutely normal, but you need to gather your thoughts, decide what you enjoy and begin to work toward a career in that field. You need to get modivated soon. The sooner you begin your career the better off you will be.

It is very normal, but don't put off that question of careers for too long or else the next thing you know you'll be 40 and still living with your parents, and nobody wants that.
