I can't decide what job to pursue
I am 14 now I need to start deciding what I want to do in the futrure so I know what to a achieve the now. I can't decide between dentistry and directing. I have a lot of experience with directing with directing, writing and performing in 6 performances currently working on another, but the problem is, is that it is not the most stable job in the market but I am willing to work for it. Also because I live in Scotland I would need to move to either London or America to make a good living. Again this does not bother me too much. More the expenses. My other choice destistry is more stable but there is a lot of denstists with and without experience out there and it will be difficult to get into the business. Not forgetting that Scotland is with the NHS so that would bring down pay but it would cost a lot of money to start up my own dentistry and I don't know if it is all worth it.What do you think would be the best road for me to go down?

Dear Sweet Soul,
The best advice I can give to you at this time is this...
NEVER force or feel you MUST live in the past or the future. Although society has conditioned you and many others to believe that life must be lived this way, these ways are "false". The true meaning of Life is to LIVE IN THE NOW MOMENT, ALWAYS! You are creating your future by your thoughts today. Thoughts create things. The future doesn't exist, so why plan for it? Live in the NOW and know true happiness, peace, joy and LOVE. And all else will fall into place. This I promise, this I guarantee. From this moment forward embark on the journey to Self Love. <3
Much Love, Light, Healing, and Blessings to you and all you Love. <3

It is good that you are starting to think about your future. The fact is though you are still quite young and have time to make a decision.
As far as Dentistry goes that is a very good profession. A profession that constantly needs the influx of new doctors as the older doctors retire and sell their practices. This is how many new doctors start out by buying an older doctors practice. Your practice in a sense becomes your retirement nest egg. The new doctor starts as your associate then buys the practice as the patients get use to seeing the new doctor and the older Doctor retires with an income from the sale.
Directing on the other hand is more than just an unstable industry. It is almost impossible to get into and become successful. If you're lucky you get hired as a grip or gopher. If your real luck and work hard you may work your way up the production staff over the next ten or fifteen years. From their if a producer takes a liking to you then you may get the chance to direct something, probably not a feature film. There is too much money involved to trust someone who does not have a name in the business.
Unless you are of independent wealth or have the ability to find the tens of millions of dollars it takes to produce a feature film? Directing is a longshot at best. Hollywood is the home to more broken dreams than any other industry you could name.
I would suggest you follow Dentistry and look to direct local theater.
