I have a degree in Business Management/Marketing, but hate sitting in an office all day. I also sold media. The job was very lucrative and I functioned well in that capacity, however it was to much pressure and I was never home (family is important to me.) I went to school for teaching, but after a year I decided that the job market and salary would not meet my needs. I am very artistic. I love to draw, read, write, decorate my home and bake. I enjoy helping and taking care of others when they are sick or listening when they need advice. I am not afraid to get my hands dirty and although I know nothing about automobiles, I have no problem opening up the hood and trying to figure out what is going on (my husband does not appreciate this). I really like to garden and plant flowers. I get bored easily and enjoy variety. Unfortunately, most of the jobs that I would like do not pay very well. Most people do not understand why I would rather make $5/hr deliveri

It sounds like you need to take a test, called the Strong-Campbell Inventory test, which will evaluate your likes/dislikes and will point you in the direction of a career field. You may not like the results, so then you have to question why you are pursuing areas that don't fit your personality. There is an old saying that we need to do in life what we would do even if no one was paying us. Follow a hobby all the way...but perseverence is important if you really want it. No one who won the olympics stopped just before the finish line. Good Luck, and pursue your dreams. You love variety, so go for it...

Do what I plan to do, go to Japan and teach english for companies or schools! All you need is a four year degree in anything and they will train you, house you, and pay you to teach for them. You don't even have to know any Japanese before hand. The JET program is one such program that does this but there are many.
The best part of this is that it goes by years so you can quit after any amount of years when you get bored and afterwards you will be fluent in Japanese and will have also lived in another country. Being fluent in Japanese is a BIG PLUS for finding great jobs in the business world in translation.
There are also programs like this for other countries, but I'm not very well read up on them.

If your eyes are open to the possibilities in life, and you can adopt a positive attitude (having faith that every thing works out for the best in the end) the question will not be "What should I do in with my life?" instead it will be ?Which door do I walk through?
