What should I do with my life?
Question by cgpp14: What should I do with my life?
I am in my early teens and have many hobbies. I enjoy gymnastics, acting, singing, making movies(and other behind the scenes jobs in the movie/TV industry), and a few other things. I recently realized that they are all some sort of performing whether it be in front of people or cameras. I love to perform, but a lot of times I am too shy to show it. I also want to look into possibly one of those things (or similar) for my career. I want to do something I love when I get older and not have just a boring desk job. I am torn between everything. I have no professional experience in any of those things. I am not the best actor or singer, but I am willing to learn to get better.
Any tips to get me going in the right direction would help. Please serious answers only.
The only problem with persuing my dream is that none of my family realizes that I really want to do this and I am only 14 and can not take myself to auditions or an acting school without my parents

Let your family know how you feel about the passions that you have….they may be more understanding than if you don’t let them know…also, you don’t want to be forced into doing something that you don’t want to do because they don’t know what it is that you like…
If you feel uncomfortable abou telling them, then just start out by doing some research and making some solid decisions…..so that you will have a game plan together!
For starters, I would say pray about it and see what God has to say…
But, if you enjoy singing and making movies…you can’t be shy to do that…you may need to see if you can take some classes to get rid of the fears you have…
Next, I would suggest that you check into some things that you could do behind the scenes in the entertainment industry…maybe some type of coaching or writing or cinematography…
Some people are talented in a lot of areas, but are more successful behind the scenes….
