I see myself as more of a worker bee with some boss potential. Engineering sounds interestings but I don't know if I am smart enough for that field, film making is going to end up as just a hobby. I am basicly looking for something that has flexibility for growth, above middle class paying and has security.
By the way, math tends to be my worse subject.  |
My suggestion (for what it is worth) is a business degree. It doesn't sound like you have a lot of work experience, so getting the background in business specific skills will be very helpful. It's flexible. With some creativity you can apply a business degree almost anywhere you desire. Tourism, Conservation management, financial sector, real estate, government, retail, manufacturing, the list goes on and on. Find something you really like to do, and make your degree work for you.
Be willing to start at the bottom and work up. 10 years ago I was making minimum wage. I found the job I wanted, I worked hard and smart, and applied myself to getting it. I worked my way up the chain and I've been in that job for 3 years now. My only regret is that I did not get a degree on the way, so I'm fixing that. I make a great salary (no BMW) and I absolutely love what I do. I enjoy going to work every single day. That should be your goal.
