Well I think you do have a goal - to find your goal. Some people search a whole life time and never discover who they are, what there mission in life should be. You are not alone. I have heard people young and old say, "What am I going to be when I grow up". I guess the key is to deliberately decide to learn and grow.
Realize that now is all you have, since yesterday is just a thought and so is tomorrow.

Truly I think that is over rated!!
how can a school kid or anyone know what they want to do all their life unless they have a real passion for it .Most don't know even if they do go to uni.& a lot don't do any work connected to the uni degree that they did. Most people have lots of different jobs in their life. don't worry about it just do some thing for now & see how you feel about the different jobs as you go through life, or do a coarse that covers a lot of different jobs
good luck

What kind of things to you like? What do you want to be in 10 years? A goal can be as simple as you are going to clean your room once a week. Or you are going to go for a walk twice a week.
Just think about what you want to do next. Baby steps.

Sounds like you may be making the mistake I was making most of my life. During the sixties a good many of us fell for the idea of find "yourself." The fact is for most people their is no single self.
It is true that we are born with certain propensities, talent, deficits and possibilities. But as important as all of this is, it does not ad up to a self, like complete self which you find roaming around into you. It just was not that way for me.
So, I suggest you start over kind of and assume you have certain pieces, good pieces of what will be your self, but you need some things more to get in built.
Sometimes the thing you need is experience. Experience is like a bank inside you. Some experiences just keep giving and giving, overtime, insight into who you are or what you could do that you would be good at and so on.
Jobs, different jobs gave me a lot of experience. I ended up working for a non-profit social service organization where I case managed and peer counseled homeless Veterans. I love this job. It was me. And I was productive and happy as I did the job.
Trips, different societies, rich, poor, white, black, yellow and brown people all providing substance and value to our world.
Try asking yourself what you are good at, like, avoid, deny, accept and so. Check out your habits like these.
Good Question, Thanks.
