    So many options.
    I am 21, working full time and going to college full time as well. I feel proud! I work my toosh off! I have a problem, I don't know exactly what career path I should take. I am taking English, fit lab and a health class. I think I want to be a nurse, then radiology, then a physical therapist, then a counselor, then a pediatrician... something like that. But does anyone have any tips on how to narrow down my options to just one? Im sure this is very common. I don't want to be a teller for the rest of my life...

    It's sure nice to have a lot of options available to you! What is it that you feel in your heart that you might be most drawn to as far as a career? How about asking someone in some of those possible career choices for you if they wouldn't mind you "shadowing" them for a day or two to see what it is like to do what they do? Doing that could possibly greatly help you in the decisions that you are trying to make.

    Just some ideas for you...

    O*Net Online is a good site for investigating careers. It gives you detailed information about the typical tasks involved in a career, knowledge & skills required, projected growth & earnings, and other useful information. You can select a state at the bottom of the page to get state-specific information.
