How many people do what they actually want to do?
It’s a disturbing number, to say the least. According to just-released data by Gallup, only 13 percent of employees are “engaged” in their jobs, or emotionally invested in their work and focused on helping their organizations improve.
Is it normal to not know what you want?
So, it is okay not to know what you want to do with your life. In fact, perhaps it’s even preferable for a time. Deciding to live on your own terms, following your own intuition and living as honestly as possible is the most important decision of all. It’s also important to briefly look back every now and then.
Does anyone really know what they’re doing in life?
Nobody knows what they are “doing with their lives.” Some people have a better idea of what they’re working toward, but ultimately, none of us can accurately anticipate or summarize what our existence is about.
Is it normal to not know what you’re doing with your life?
You don’t know what to do with your life and you don’t know how to find out either. The first thing to understand is that this is perfectly normal; people are not born knowing what their ultimate role in society is going to be. Instead, they are born with endless possibilities from which to discover their calling.

Why don’t people want to change their lives?

Why don’t students and young adults know what to do with their lives?
I believe, that students and young adults don’t know what to do with their lives because schools, colleges and universities (with some exceptions) neither encourage them to have this inquiry nor do they provide enough opportunities and/or tools to facilitate it.
Is the information out there reaching the kids?
