Hello! I am new to this website, and joined because it seemed so convenient. I am a Highschool student and finding the right career or job has proven a challenge for me. My interests for finding the perfect job are helping animals or helping families and the community. Does anyone have any suggestions to get me started on my journey?
I have a huge love for animals. I have a big interest of working at animal shelters and helping the pets with their basic needs, and help to find a forever home. I also have a very big heart when it comes to the less fortunate. I would like to help the homeless with needs and shelter, and give them a kinder life, as well as families who need help.

What were some family-related problems you had to deal with when focusing on your career?
I'm currently deciding whether i should go to the least expensive school (commuting) or the place that would make me the happiest, living on campus. I find it hard telling my family that being away from them, being on my own, being independent 2 hours away, will help me focus on school and my studies much better than being at home in all of the chaos. I know they rely on me a lot for certain things and i'm happy to help them with anything, but just this once I want to be selfish and focus on me without any judgment on why I feel the this way. After all I, and only I, will be the one that bears the weight of my consequences, if any, of the amount of debt I will be in. Even though my college options aren't expensive compared to other schools, I will have to bear a large amount of debt to be able to go to a four year school and get a Bachelor's degree. Anyway, what would you suggest I do with this kind of problem?

How did you choose a job that aligned with your goals and what you enjoyed?
I do not know how I am going to find a job that I enjoy and one that aligns with my future goals, like having family time and flexibility. Right now, I want to be an anesthesiologist, but after further research, I might not be able to meet my goals, so I'm not really sure where to go from there. I was thinking a healthcare management position, but I'm not completely sure.
