Great question Omarion. You are in high school but it is never early to ask this question and try to get answers. Know that your answer will likely change as you grow and learn more about yourself and the industries out there.
To guide you in your journey, I recommend reading about Ikigai - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ikigai
It basically tells you to think about
- What you are good at?
- What the world needs?
- What will make you money?
- What gives you joy?
If you can find a career that answers/checks all 4 questions then you have hit jackpot.

You don't have to decide on a job or a career right now if you're still in high school. You'll need to do something to make money and pay the bills, but you can still follow whatever you are passionate about and combine the career. Maybe you'll be a lawyer representing musical artists or game designers, or you'll be a musician that makes music for game designers. You don't have to limit yourself or make a decision right now, but it's always a good idea to do a good job in school and make good grades. If you have a chance to do an internship or speak with someone in one of those career fields, just to see what their experience is like, that could help guide you to a decision in the future. Good luck!

Breakdown the jobs by your passion. What do you want to do the most. What provides you the best sense of accomplishment and happiness. If you follow your passion, you will always find a job that you enjoy doing.

Hi Omarion: Kinda know where you're coming from! I have had to do a lot of things to make ends meet over the course of my life! Here's how you handle it - break it down to which pays the best and which YOU like the most Money is not everything. Money is only a tool.So remember - you need to balance between money and life. Life is way to short to avoid things because of money. The best things in life are realy free. So go enjoy your youth. Make the best money you can and always be true to yourself!

Hello Omarion, your still in High School so you still have plenty of time to discover yourself and your place so don't sweat it too much. In my opinion though sit down and do your research about each job that interests you and make a list of pros and cons of each career. What you want out of it, the schooling that may be required, maybe some dream companies you would like to work with, where you see yourself in that field in 1 year, 5 years, 10 years. beyond that. Wishing you all the best
