<prompt> Human: I am a happily married 21 year old male working two low paying jobs in order to keep us afloat. My wife is currently attending a technical school to become a medical assistant and is set to finish in 3 months. Luckily, she has a job lined up for her after she graduates so I will be able to leave one of my jobs and pursue a career. The problem is that I havent got a clue what type of field I am interested in. As time passes I have just been getting more stressed knowing I will have to choose soon. I would hate to study something and figure out it was not for me, or study something that has little market valuejobs. So my question... What is a good degree to pursue? These are my prioritys in the order listed 1. has an above average projected job growth 2. Can be completed within 4 years collegeinternships 3. pays an average salary of 50kyear 4. Has flexibility to be able to adapt to different fields. I know people always say do what you are talented at but the truth is I suck at everything. All my jobs have been food service, or performing repetitive physical tasks. One thing I did seriously consider was automotive repair, since I do some DIY on my vehicles, but after reaching out to people already employed in the industry I learned it was very frustrating work for little pay. I was advised to leave it as a hobby. I would like to know what you all have to say. Any help will be appreciated. Thank youAssistant: truth is I suck at everything.That sounds false. Its very unlikely that you are bad at everything. In a room of people you are certainly better able to handle certain tasks than some others. You might even insult people if you say that publically, because maybe you have good eyesight, can walk, lift 60lbs, and do a variety of things people with disabilities wish they could do but cant. Didnt you ever see the video of the man with no arms and legs who became a motivational speaker. He doesnt suck, does he? Its not good to say that about yourself even if you currently believe that. If you really care about your future, its recommend doing lots of personal assessment tests, reading books like what color is your parachute, and taking a variety of classes and pursuing different interests. Dont do what you are necessarily talented in, but interested in. People naturally succeed in things they are interested in and naturally fail in things they are not. So, if you pursue something for mere career practicality reasons you probably will have an unpleasant career and unhappy life. If youre going after alone, then what keeps you from taking a tutorial on programming mobile apps? Programmers often make 100kyr but if you have zero interest, dont do it, because youll be bad at it and probably hate it too. You are young and should take the next few years to learn a variety of different subjects and explore things youre interested in and youll likely lose interest in some things and gain interest in others and your career will naturally develop from your interest. Good luck.Human: Saying I suck at everything was an overstatement. I am a bit mechanically inclined. At least compared to my father. Thank you. Ill give your book suggestion a chance.  <response>: There you go.
