Please read. Confused head. Jumbled thoughts. Please read!?

Hi sorry you feel in a rut, let's take a look at some of your options, based on your interests:- Football:- Perhaps a little late in the day these days to be lookign at football as a career and to be brutal, if you had the level of talent needed for professional play these days, you'd probably have been scouted by now. It isn't impossible though. Check your nearest major teams and see if they have academies and what the application process is.

Failing that, perhaps look at a sports instructors qualification and see if that's an option which is still open to you. Travelling:- Without a degree, your options are limited. Try and pick up a Teaching English as a Foreign Language certificate and see what options are available.

A lot of the more developed countries will require degrees and even full teaching qualifications, but some of the more off the beaten track nations still take instructors without degrees. Alternatively, you could see about applying for cabin crew positions aboard airlines, or crew positions on cruise companies, the work is hard in bursts, but it does let you see the world and there are decent opportunities to make a good career from this. Another option, one which I considered in my younger years, was to qualify as a truck driver, which allows for great scope for travel *if* you are prepared for the long-haul work.

Supernatural:- Sadly, the only way to make real money from this is to have succeeded elsewhere on your own terms. The people you see on TV have forged a career either in other fields (TV personalities, archaeologists etc...) which has allowed them to go into this field professionally. Of course, you can always perservere and do it yourself on a local/regional basis, but you need to really clue yourself up and you will be self-funding, never mind facing an uncertain income.

Discovering:- Hard to pin this down to any focussed career, but have you considered policing, longer term there is a possibility of developing investigative skills. Beyond that, this feels a little vague. At 19, you still have options available to you (I was still in college at 19), so don;t worry about getting in a rut yet.

Start checking every... *every* listing on whatever job pages are available in your area and see what takes your fancy. Even if you can't apply, try and find out what criteria you would need to meet and see about heading down that route. For what it's worth, I now pursue a completely different career than the one I qualified in, so don;t worry, you have plenty of time.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
