How do you know what you want to do with your life?

At 18 students are often forced to think about what they want to do for the REST of their lives. How do they know if what they are passionate about now will make a good career choice for them or if it they will even like their major a year later ?

When studying psychology, how does one narrow it down to a specific career?

I am going to currently major in psychology but I do not know what type of job to aim for.
