Comment on Which career to pursue?

Don’t go into coding if you don’t have a passion for it and are just looking for a lucrative career path. With the exception of some niche specialties, that field is over saturated.
Disclaimer: The following suggestions are uninformed guesses and should be treated as such.
If you want to go through school, maybe psychiatry? Lots of interesting insight into people that can help inform your stories. Plus, the mix of growing normalization of mental health and current trends, I see this as a growing industry.
If you want to skip university, look at trades like electrician, plumber, nurse, etc. Good money and, at least for now, there is a lot of focus on careers that require (or at least favor) 4 year degrees, some competition for work is significantly less.

Thank you. Reading your comment, I picked the tone as like you’re telling me to consider what my mind wants and finds interesting rather than what options I have in my hand.
I thought like that for myself before. But, I’ve found nothing on what I feel a passion about. Well, maybe except for my imaginative mind.
I feel like I want to materialize my imagination. Either by writing stories, making indie films or audiobooks.
Sometimes, I wonder that is this compressed thoughts and imagination is what keeping my mind from learning complex things.
Anyway, to stable my focus on something I’m passionate about, I have yet to explore them. Hobbies or something like that. I hear other people saying that they do this and that as their hobby. I wondered why I don’t have one. Or maybe I’m too drowned into my own thoughts that I never really took action to explore any hobby.
Though, as a subject, I like Psychology. But I cannot opt out of Physics right now. I’ll search if Psychology is available as a secondary line of course or in Masters.
