False choice. You do not have to figure out in advance, today, what you're going to do, assume you're going to do it for the rest of your life, and then put all your eggs in that basket.

You don't have any idea what you want to do because you haven't tried anything.

You have EVERY idea what you DON'T want to do because you're waiting for ... I dunno, a blinding vision from heaven or a spontaneous orgasm or something earth shattering to tell you with certainty THE path for your life.

There is no ONE path, no certitude, and you figure things out gradually by TRYING stuff. If this makes life unworthy of you, then I guess you just have to choose not to live.

Quite probably.

This statement is self-contradictory. If you don't think anything is worth working at, then you're not willing to work.

Your ennui is a fig leaf over your laziness.

Have a nice life.
