im just in a rut.

21 years old and have no idea what im doing anymore. i just want to know what i want to do for the rest of my life so i can start it. ive been wokring as a manager in a retail store for 5 years now, and its not what i want to do, but it seems the longer i stay the easier it is to get comfortable and settle. how do you know the path you are on is where you need to be? how do you know what youre going to want in the future? how do you decide? I feel like i wont be happy with any decision i make.

There’s no rush to get to uni. Personally Id say that if your unsure then it is the worst time. there is no harm in waiting until you find something you do want to do. I did a degree that I really regretted and I ended up failing, i’m now doing what I wanted to do but I could have waited and properly thought about it.
