ok im 23 years old and im a single mom with a one child! living on my own and pay my own bills! still at 23yrs old I dont whut I want to do with my life! I thought I wanted be a nurse, now I want to be a cop! I just dont no which one! I been in themedical field for about 5 years and im like a one step away from being a nurse but, I dont no if this is the right choice! I no at 23 I need to make a choice now, so I can have a great life for my daughter! what should I do, and do I no if I want to be a nursre or a cop! I got the papers to be a cop as well! took clases for it but then I pulled away from it! I just dont no whut to do! I want a career by the time im 28! I dont want to be stuck with just a regular 9 to5! I make good money where im at, I work for the state and very much so want to stay with the state, whut should I do, somebody help me decide!
thats so funny, I am 18 and I have been on my own for 3 years, no kids though. I went to medical school and never did anything with it, now I am starting school to get an assoc. degree in criminal justice! lol. I want to be a corrections officer. but 23 is still young! I wouldnt stress about it. hello, your a mother! and I assume a good one, look around you at most 23 year olds. half are still living at home, living off their parents money not even giving a damn what they are going to do with there life. your doing good now.
dont worry, take your time. it is your career. if your having doubts now, that is a big sign.
I was in the same situation but with no kids...I know you want the best for the family and I think the same way but my dad gave me advice that I will never forget...he makes a lot of money and he told me if he could give it up to do something he enjoyed he would do it in a second...as long as you can support your family and make them happy(and MOST important your happy) then do it...thinking back on it I would rather have my dad live a happy life than have a job that made us a lot of money. yeah you may not get the kids everything that they want but they know when your happy...trust me, you know what im talkin about
U gota a baby ye so you said your so close to being a nurse... huni stick with that first your babi and you will benefit a lot more! Say you went along with wanting to be a cop... its gona take time and effort, am I rong? just carry on with what your doing and when you and your child are better off and stable, then think about moving on!
Peace out, have a happy new year xx
When I am perplexed about a choice or decision I get a pad of paper and put a big "T" right in the middle of it. On the right side above the "T" I put a + sign and on the left side I put a - sign. I list all of the positive things about it on the right side and all of the negative things on the left. When I am done it is usually obvious which way to decide.
Write down all things you would consider doing for a living. Then research the pro's and con's about each. THink about which would keep your household stable and healthy. THen make a choice that your comitment won'tstray from.
go to a website that you can take a carrer matchmaking test and find out what your interested in!
I say be a nurse, being a cop is too risky...
I'm 26 and don't know either!
