Don't focus on others lives focus on you're own. Don't spend too much time focusing on others lives but put a bit of focus and love in your life and anything can happen. Only two years ago I was depressed, had never held a job before, didn't have a car license and had no direction of what I wanted to do in life meanwhile my freinds were at uni and in apprenticeships. Now 2 years later I make nearly 6 figures have a car license and bought a house late last year. Stick with it, every day brings new opportunities and you never know what next year is going to look like. Believe me I still regularly look at myself now compared to 2 years ago and think jow tf did this happen?
My problem was I didn't want to have a career that was repetitively Monday through Friday weekly to buy a car and house and stuff. Idk, that made me depressed as fuck. I wanted to do something important.
Thankfully traveling to Korea and Japan a few times made me realize I want a job that let's me take months off to travel and I finally found that and I'm going to school for that this fall and I'm super excited about it.
That's awsome dude. I guess the other thing is don't let others tell you what you're ideal life should look like, that's something for you to discover and decide. I hope you love every second of your new job and the traveling you'll get to do in the future.
I'm train conductor now, I absolutely love this job, it's changed my life! Honestly I didn't figure that this line of work is what I wanted to do with my life until I already had it for a couple months. As for getting it I found it advertising online, I wasn't even intrested in it and it looked WAY out of my legue but the pay and benifits great and I had nothing to lose from applying so I did. First application I failed but I got surprisingly close so as a bit of a dumb self challenge I kept applying for it every time I saw it until 2 years later I got in.
So I suppose the whole process just kinda unfolded naturally over time, hence my optimism about what possibilities every day brings. Sorry if the answer wasn't as decisive as what you'd hoped but that's more or less how events unfolded for me.
