As a career coach who specializes in working with teens and adults with ADHD, I would like to add a tip or 2 related to following your passion to create a sustainable career direction.
1. Identifying the best direction requires a deeper dive to understand all the elements we need to consider that will impact our day to day enjoyment of the work we do. Your teen needs to learn techniques to do this such as those offered via What Color Is Your Parachute.
2. Complete this process first before deciding to enroll in college, take on- line classes, take a gap year volunteering or many other options available. This is key.
If your teen only completes these 2 things, he or she will be years ahead of most in creating work he/she loves, including choosing a major. The choices to decide on a direction will be far.clearer.
