What should I do with my life?

<p>I am going to be a sophomore in high school next year and I still don't know what I want to do with my life. I know I have a lot of time to decide but I am always torn. There are 2 things I really want to be. </p>

<p>1) Anesthesiologist: I really like science and I really like money but it has a lot of risks to it and I feel like I won't be committed to it. I really want to travel a lot and I need to have a lot of money. </p>

<p>2) College Professor: I really like to learn and I really want to teach but you get no money from doing it and my life dream is to travel. </p>

<p>So any advice on what I should lean towards?</p>

<li>Find a passion.</li>
<li>Pursue it.</li>
<li>Don’t do something for the money, if you like your job and work hard enough, you’ll make enough.</li>
</ol>

<p>First, calm down. Breathe. You do not have to know what you want to do. Even if you do know, it will most likely change. Enjoy high school and try to discover careers that may interest you. You will eventually figure out what you want to do; it just takes time.</p>
