In my search for possible job opportunities, I've evaluated what I like to do. The recurring and very prominent joy in my life is reading. I considered many jobs that had to do with reading. A few included being a school/public librarian. I would never want to be a school librarian. I don't like high schoolers. I'm not very into the whole public library librarian because that sounds like it would entail things that I'm not interested in. Plus, I don't think the income is that good. I played with idea of being an agent for writers. I'd get to read a lot for that one. But I'm not organized enough for my own life, let alone other people's stuff. I'd really like to own my own book store. I'd sell baked goods, let people read the books there, get wireless internet, have special times for kids. They get read to, have their faces painted, make things. Sell comic books and random "nerdy" things and have one day a month set aside for comic books and playing card games. One of my fears of picking a career is the fact that I want to have children someday. I don't want to have them raised by strangers until they're in 2nd grade. If I own my own place, I could make my own schedule and even bring my children to work.
One thing that keeps me from this almost perfect job is the fact that I fear failure and a general lack of money. I don't want to set it up and then have it fail. I don't even know how to set it up. What am I to do? Go with a safe choice, a steady job, daycare for my children? Or should I take a chance at something that could be absolutely perfect for me? I wish someone could show me the future or could help me out.
