I would also recommend taking the Myers-Briggs personality test to find out what careers you would like and be good at.

If you love your work, you stand a better chance of being successful.

I know someone who studied for the Myers-Briggs test. Really. He figured out which personality traits the management team was looking for to fill a newly-opened supervisor position, and figured out which way to answer to get the results they were looking for. If Manipulative Obsequious Weasel ever becomes an actual job, he's set for life.

He got the job. I mentioned to management that he was going to be there just long enough to grease other palms and make himself known to upper management, then move to something else. They said he was a great fit and wouldn't do that at all. Six months later, I got to have an "I-told-you-so" moment with them.

This guy was an all-out suck-up as long as he wanted the supervisory job. When he got it, and set his sights on the next thing, everyone he sucked-up to was left on the ash heap.
