At 18 you still have some drift time on the scales here-- But-- drift time doesn't equate into success at much of anything !!!\n\nThe one thing that is missing here is any mention of ANYTHING that you DO like.... It is a critical mass kinda thing that you get into something that actually hits a switch with you if you truly expect to excell with it and achieve some Real Success.......\n\nThe obvious thing that I would like to input here-- is that no matter what you would choose to do in the future has got far less of a chance to happen on any real note of success until you achieved your high school diploma-----SO-- that being said--- I think that your very best chances at making a real career move would hinge on you getting back into school and getting the  diploma --no matter what kind of job you did WHILE doing THAT !!\nAnd while you are completing those studies and doing this---whatever job you do while getting this whipped--- spend some time thinking of what really really for sure that it is that you really really LOVE being around--- then you have a place to head once your armed with the one thing that will ensure your chances of success your whole life long-----the diploma !!!!

Forget what other people are doing with there lives, someday it will hit them and they will have things not going for them also.\nYou have to think positive and praying helps also. Talk to a professional counselor at school, maybe you are going in the wrong career direction. Or perhaps you need to get away for the day, by yourself to just think on what you want to do with your life.

spend time with your family and friends help start a life for the younger generations of your family let everyone know you are the man/woman!!! You will be respected so much if you let yourself have fun and share time with the ones who care! Let go everynow and then we all have the right to get a little crazy!

finish college. I think you will be happier in the end that you did. and think of all that knowledge that you are missing out on!\n\nI will have my 2 year degree this year, FINALLY! and I am ready to move on to classes that pertain to what I want to do with my life.\n\nI say keep going. the boring part is over.

The good thing about life is that as long as you're living, there's time to start over.  It sounds like you're doing that.  Be patient, persevere, and go after your goals no matter what it takes.  Good luck.

If you can then YES- this is the time to do that, go travel the world- you might find stuff on yourself that you didn't know and maybe realize what you really wants to do in life.

Drop out.  Seriously.  Get married and have children.  You'll be happier than chasing some "career".

Well, those aren't your only two options - not doing anything in life OR going to college. There are surely things out there fall somewhere in between. Do SOMETHING with your life -- even if it doesn't include a college degree. Degrees certainly do help though. It won't hurt to try to get one and then just do what you want anyway. But, degree or not, not doing ANYTHING with your life sounds really depressing and boring. Not going to college does not equal not doing anything with your life.

dont worry believe me many are in your shoes. it takes time to know what u really want.. i would consider u start taking your basics either at a college or university. talk to people look around search different careers. and do what u like.choose something u will be happy doing for a living.

Take the next two years to enjoy your free time.  Seriously.  Don't work.  You'll definantly regret not using your free time later on when you have a 40 hours per week job.  Trust me, I'm 19 years old and I honestly wish I had better spent my pre-18 years doing the stuff I enjoy, because now I RARELY have time to do anything.  Don't let the same happen to you.

You really don't have to choose one thing. Very few people can go through life doing just one thing enjoyably.\n\nInstead, learn yourself and the things which please you and choose yourself. Use every opportunity available to you to experience as many things as possible, even the activities which don't particularly appeal to you now. Personal tastes always change with time and a variety of experience is invaluable in life. Watch for opportunities to grow, not for a career.\n\nIf you pay attention to the types of activities which make you happiest and seek those, your career(s) will choose you!\n\nGood luck!\nWK

go to college. its the best years of your life no matter how old you are.  you can take easier courses and there is always a major for everybody.  it will be definately worth it in the long run and you will be able to tell your kids about it in the future that you made something of yourself.

Yes! I agree totally! Thank you for asking this. The best thing to do would be to do other things. Keep yourself busy!
