I've been really conflicted about what I should devote my 20s for: build a carrer, enjoy my youth (while I still have any) or try to find a balance between the two. As far as I can remember, I never excelleled at anything in life nor had any passion while growing up. Also, for reasons that even I don't understand, I genuinely thought I would die before becoming an adult, but here I am. Anyone here who went through this kind of thing?

Find a good man/woman, as appropriate, and marry him/her.

well im 28 now and i always had it in my head that i'd kill myself before i reached 30 but here i am. have the same feelings as you. no passion that translates into a job, so i just kind of did whatever job paid. just barely above minimum wage. if you're truly passionless like me no job will ever be "fulfilling". it'll always just be this tedious thing you have to do. that being said, if everything is equally tedious then you might as well start a trade of some sort. carpenter, electrician, welder, plumber are all well paying jobs that anyone can do.

Not having experience isn't a big deal in your 20s. Just throw yourself out there and be open to trying different things. Don't make stupid plans like "I'm going to kill myself by thirty", live your life and have fun but also find a career. There's no reason you can't work towards both, you'll never have as much energy as you do now. Trade schools are always a good idea, a lot of employers like to do the training themselves so there are options of on the job training vs. Structured class type training.

Better trades are out there OP, Electrician and Welder are basic bitch shit but if you do more research you'll quickly realize that there's sub categories of trades.
