It's challenging for any of the helpers here to provide a useful answer without knowing more about your situation and interests.
In general, remember that every job, volunteer opportunity, or extracurricular activity contributes to your career development. View these experiences as chances for personal growth and learning. If higher education isn't appealing to you, concentrate on launching a career right after high school. If you're interested and able to attend college, you might start with jobs or internships during your studies.
It might be beneficial to make your questions more specific so that our helpers can offer more targeted advice.

It depends on how high you want to go as far as your education.
Do you want to get a bachelors, masters, doctoral?
It is always a good idea to complete your education and get any certifications you might need for your career.
Do you want to complete an internship, to obtain more experience?
Is there any place you want to travel before you start a career?
These are things to consider before beginning a career.

You know, there's no one-size-fits-all answer to that. I started my career journey a bit later, but it's never too late to begin. Focus on gaining experience, learning from others, and seizing opportunities when they come your way. Your journey is unique, so trust the timing that feels right for you.
