Philosophical question maybe but how do you know what your passionate about?

Question

I am 28 years old and finally after many set back I can attend collage. But I honestly do not know what I want to do. I love stuff like Anthropology and history environmental stuff but when I get right down to it. I know that one either nothing will pay well (honestly not important) #2 I can get the same information online and or books, why waste the money or #3 I seem to want to do to many thing and then as I am sure some know I'll get anxiety over it. Anyone have any idea's on a different way to approach this and maybe see things in a different light?

Answer 1

I once asked a very wise man the same questions? His question to me, "What comes easy to you? What is the thing that makes you special?"

It is the things that come easiest hold our hidden passions. They are our gifts to the world. We just have to channel those gifts.

Answer 2

You should take a Bachelor of the Arts degree, that touches on a lot of different subjects your interested in the you could go on to do a PhD in which ever one you feel most passionate about.

Answer 3

You only know how much you value something in terms of how much you are willing to give up to get it. My guess, and I don't know you that well is you are interested, but not passionate. Do some of that self learning first, then as you learn more you will see if you are truly passionate.

Answer 4

Like it or not the degree that you eventually get is a ticket to the future well being of you and those who will depend on you. Just find something that interests you, that you enjoy that will pay well enough to keep you out of the poor house, and go from there.
