Find something that not just interests you, but something that you want to know more about. Somebody may find psychology interesting for example and really wants to know more about human behavior. For the moment remove the financial earning potential and replace it with the knowledge and skill potential of what you're interested in.<br /> <br />Most people want money, which is not bad at all. But, most people don't assign purpose to money. So, if you had money what would you do with it? Again, most people don't know. You can't eat or drink money. You can liquidate it into food by exchanging it at the grocery store or restaurant, or draw it from the ATM and use it as fuel for a fire. So, for now remove the financial earning potential and replace it with the skill and knowledge potential. Your skills and knowledge will earn you money as a consequence. But, more importantly your interest, interest to want to know more, and skill and knowledge focus will give you direction.
