Need help in picking a career after finishing high school

[xr6-FTW]

Hey guys and possibly girls aswell, it's been a few months now since finished high school and got the vce certificate. During year 11 and 12 i decided that uni wasn't for me primarily because there wasn't anything in particular I wanted to do there and being so over school work I decided just to do whatever I needed to gain a vce certificate at the end of year 12 Which i did end up receiving.

So my dilemma is this, i'm am probably one of the most indecisive people you will meet, making decisions usually turns into a mess, taking ages to finally decide somethings i cant or don't end up making a decision . Since year 11 I kept thinking to myself an apprenticeship is probably something i'd be keen on as rather than losing money and risking uni, you will be earning and learning as they say.

So during year 11 and 12 I kept trying to think what I would want to do and nothing was coming to mind, I was doing vet integrated studies and vet building and construction and they seemed two obvious choices in which way to go. But since the end of year 12 both had stuff that was ****. What stuffed it up was most of time i had to deal with people who were some of the most annoying ****s ive ever met on top of old cranky teachers who yelled for no reason.

So anyway I find myself in this position, its been over 3 months since I finished school and I don't know what to do with my life. My parents made me apply for horticulture positions as suggestions but Im not really interested because knowing the future low pay as a job 40-60k put me off on top of being told you only do it if you have a passion which i don't particularly have but don't mind a good bit of gardening sometimes. So I didn't get anything but rejections in regards to it.

So now i'm still at home trying to decide what i want to do, thing is i don't know what. A family mate of mine is an electrician and i keep tossing and turning whether or not i should try it out, i haven't because i didn't really enjoy doing the stuff i did in school in regards to electrical work, it usually made no sense and i didn't understand what the hell was going on nor were my mates because the teacher was an old electrical engineer who let us kick back literally for most lessons in both year 11 and 12, and when we had to do something it was so **** and fiddly and i was lost. I should also mention in year 11 I did work experience for a week with an electrical company (not my family mate) and it was not bad i mainly just assisted in tool handling and cleaning lol but I did see what cutting through a live wire can do and I **** myself not literally, seeing how 240v can melt hardened steel pliers, not too mention the sound and a million sparks.

So an opportunity is there to be a sparkie but I'm hesitant to try it because me old man says do what you like and enjoy and basing my experience to be an electrician on what i kind of learnt doesn't match up as what i was shown was **** and not really enjoyable, but that wasn't learning the proper stuff which could be a lot different?????. i have also thought about maybe trying out carpentry sometimes as what we did is 95% of a pre app i have discovered but i did have a few bad moments in carpentry which also leaves me in a mind of uncertainty just like the electrician dilemma.

I do feel an apprenticeship would be pretty good but telling you what i want personally to do is very strange as it has constantly changed from things such as a metro train driver to being in the airforce and then back to being a tradie which seems the direction i want to start my working life in, i don't mind a hard days work. It's just deciding what i want to do is such a mind **** for me on top of the pressure from me parents to hurry up and get a job. Whenever i'm told to do what you like and enjoy makes me feel more lost because i don't know what it exactly is . On top of feeling worried about trying things and not ending up liking it.

Any advice would be hugely appreciated.
