Sometimes you must bite the bullet n try something. Then maybe it will grow on you and become a passion

I also have no passion, because my parents beat it out of me when I was young. I was not allowed to go out and meet friends, watch TV etc.
So I just resigned to my fate, earn money and spend on food and buying whatever I want.

Keep searching for it. never stop. lots of people do not find their purpose till later in life.. and it's perfectly normal.. but as long as you keep moving forward, you try things, internships, get a normal job, entrepreneurship etc. you'll definitely find it one day.. talk to people and understand different industries. travel the world (after covid) , read history and stories of inspiring people.. there's much to learn in this world! try hustling in something, maybe you'll like it..!

a 1% progress is better than none. keep going ! cheering you on.

I completely understand! It's something I have been struggling with as well, but have since learned to make peace (if not, still trying to) with the fact that our lives are gonna be a journey of exploration, and we should enjoy the process of learning and self-discovery while we try, and fail, and try again nonetheless.

Tbh, a lot of people might seem like they have everything together and that they do know what they want, but that's not true! I've seen so many people go through an existential crisis as well, so I hope you know that you're not alone. :-)

What's important is that you will not settle for something just for the sake of it, but keep on exploring and try different things while you can. Also, know that passion/interests can be also nurtured from something you've been doing and gotten good at.

All the best to you!

Hey Anon!

It's not definitely not easy to deal with all the external social pressures. But I'm sure...
