Greetings to you all,
After finishing school, I'm about to start a new chapter in my life - the working world, and I'm confused about my feelings concerning myself, which is why I'm looking for advice.
Due to my family situation, I'm expected to get an apprenticeship, whereas I want to pursue my hobby and finally become a full-time writer. As a result, I have never been honest with myself, my parents, or other relatives. Now, I am in the process of being accepted into the German Armed Forces and doing a job that I don't really want to do in the future.
Even though I'm now an "adult," it's not as easy as you might imagine.
At the moment, I still live with my parents, but this would change as soon as I had a conversation with them. Unfortunately, a part-time job wouldn't be enough to keep me afloat or to finance a place of my own. If I were to work more hours and get a 40-hour-a-week job, the situation would be no different than if I were doing an apprenticeship.
I don't know whether I should pursue a "safe" career, where I will never be happy, or take the risk of failing. Ultimately, I can't do more than fail, can I?Seeking Advice(About my future)
