What should i do with my life?

I'm currently in high school. I am pretty good at drawing, using computers (website design, networking, etc), and taekwondo. I also run track and i'm learning (independently) about photography, film, and writing. I also want to learn capoeira, jiu jitsu, how to play the guitar, and finances (especially stocks).

As you can see, my interests range greatly without too much direction. My questions are:


What career should I consider? Should I give up some stuff until later in my life?

Just a note: art and sports are my passions

You might want to consider becoming a graphic artist.

I don't thing you have to give up any of your interests, at least yet. Some of these may fall away naturally as you start to give your life some focus.

If you're good at drawing and computers, maybe try architecture or engineering. Or maybe graphic design or advertising.

I don't think you have to give anything up. Just keep exploring your options and see what you really like to do, and could actually make a career out of =]

make the right choice..get into something you may like

You know, you don't have to necessarily pursue a career right now. You can go to college as an undeclared student and take courses in a variety of areas. You'll probably, through that, be able to narrow in on what you'd like to be spending a lot of your time doing.

From what you've described, it doesn't look like you have something in you burning to be a martial arts instructor and running your own place. Martial arts is a hobby for many people. So's running. Playing the guitar--since you're starting late and it seems to be just an interest rather than a passion, it's unlikely you'll be doing anything job/career-wise with that. Again, this looks like a hobby. Stocks--could be a hobby or a career, depending on how passionate you are about it. Taking a college course related to that in some way could help you discern more.

Drawing, visual media, computer use, photography, film and writing all fit within a common category. I can't label it, but they fit together. Bachelor of Design (something we have here, don't know if you'll have it there) comes to mind as an area to look into.

I think you should open a taekwondo do jo. You'll enjoy your job, be your own boss, and cash in at the same time. Still, finish college. You will want that degree to back you up, and maybe work while your do jo is in the making, and have benefits.
