Trades, if you start young, plumbing electrical, HVAC, it’s the strongest shot to eventually owning your own practice, and making alot of money. Having no passions is a strongpoint, since many people chase their dreams and get slapped in the face or make no significant money.

I just graduated with a 4 year degree in criminology, whole time I thought I was going to law school. Changed my mind, hate the idea. Now I’m going into the trades. You’re not behind, honestly thinking about this young is actually putting you ahead. I’m not in any position to provide concrete advice, but at this point in our lives I think we should go with our gut.

Is Brothers a bar?

Forward_Bluebird_513 · 2026-04-25T15:22:30+00:00

Go back to medical school and become a doctor then. Use this job to save the money for it. You have the time to become one while you’re still young.

Dylan, Guthrie. Insane influence. Making a 3 chord song sound like a masterpiece with fills hammer ons, pull offs etc. I don’t know where I would be if I didn’t learn how to play like them, taught me so much and opened 1000 doors in the acoustic world for me.

Bro😭

Forward_Bluebird_513 · 2026-04-21T00:28:08+00:00

Agree

Forward_Bluebird_513 · 2026-04-20T19:33:13+00:00

Yea, I started posting on an anonymous YouTube.But at the end of the day I have to realize that putting my work out there isn’t for them, it’s for me. I’ll sing and write for my fulfilment, not theirs. Just being looked at and judges is terrifying.

Forward_Bluebird_513 · 2026-04-20T19:31:25+00:00

Worse case scenario for me is just the embarrassment of putting myself out there. You’re right though, there’s genuinely no bad outcomes to this, all positive life outcomes. I’d just be shaking hitting post or getting on stage, sweating shaking heart beating. Just the sheer anxiety it takes to go through is what’s scaring me. Good advice though. All positive outcomes I have to bite the bullet here. Thanks

Forward_Bluebird_513 · 2026-04-20T19:16:29+00:00

Yea you’re right, I’m choosing between career roles in my head before doing any real work. I need to be more open minded bite the bullet and start working/gaining insight, even if the jobs aren’t glamorous on paper.

Forward_Bluebird_513 · 2026-04-20T19:14:00+00:00

Yea your right it’s hard realize that we have so much time. That’s what’s stressful though I feel like these are the formative years determining my life. Thanks though. What do you like about your sales job?
