Well I'm 16, and that's for most people in the US the time for the two best things, driving and jobs. Everyone in school has already gotten their license and is driving to work every day, and it makes me feel like such a loser since I see it EVERYWHERE. Like yes I do want to drive, but last time I practiced a few days ago (I have my permit) I nearly crashed and have been really worried I'm gonna be a horrible driver and never really get up to it. I have also been looking around for a job, but nothing has really popped up for me yet.

In all honesty, I don't really want to do these things at the moment but I feel so damn pressured like I have to, otherwise I'm a failure of myself. I feel so shitty whenever I hear someone talk about how they drove or how much they got paid from work. I'm really confused because like I said I didn't plan on wanting to do these things but then I do.

What should I do? :confused:

Well, as a 14 year old, I can tell you that you just have to not tense up when behind the wheel. just let it all out and relax. BTW: i drive at my cabin all the time

Take some deep breaths and chill out. As long as you follow the laws and don't randomly slam on your brakes you are already a better driver then a lot of the people I see. Don't worry about a job right now, you have the rest of your life to work.

I have to agree with Thanatos. I drive tractors and dump trucks on the road between fields and on my uncles farm. just try and relax don't feel pressured by what your friends say or are doing.

All things has its own righteous time. Don't pressure yourself in order for you to be on trends or just to follow what has been a traditions. Maybe sooner or later you will have what you really longing with the help of luck. Well then good luck !!
