I don't know what career I want. I want to somehow get an idea of my interests.

I'm asking because right now I'm majoring in Aviation to be a commercial pilot, I go to San Diego Miramar College. However, when started taking classes, I feel like I don't want to do it anymore, and now I'm confuse what am I suppose to do. #career path.
