Comment on Which career to pursue?

Based on what you wrote, it seems like you need to take a step back and look at the whole picture. Why are you at school and what do you want to study.
Goin to school can help you position yourself for a career, but is usually primarily about becoming educated (and isn’t for everyone).
If you’re primarily concerned about a career, then focus you’re studies on something you feel capable in. Physics requires a lot of mathematics (and nowadays usually some programming). Programming coursework may have mathematics, but usually relies more on logic than math. Writing is a great way to work on communication skills and analysis, but will have a less direct career path after school (becoming a professional writer is no guarantee).
On top of all of that, most people won’t even end up working in their field of study.
At the end of the day, no one really knows where the economy is going long term. That means there isn’t a surefire path to success, and why I recommend you think harder about what you feel good about pursuing.

You can already guess the idea that I don’t particularly like Physics either. I ended up with it because of my bad result. And the reason for bad result is that, I was disinterested in mathematics prior to the exam, overall low grades summed me up in this major.
Even with full attention, full seriousness, I found myself difficult to study mathematics attentively.
I can’t specifically point back to the point from where I started disliking mathematics, I only reached to the conclusion that, this problem is rooted in my psychology. I found that my brain is slow while processing mathematics and its logic. At least slower than the average.
Since I cannot opt out of my major, I’ll have to eventually train my mind to mindfully learn mathematics.
I’ve decided that I’ll give myself a bit more time to reach to a final decision.
