I feel like I will never become anything. I feel lonely and sad very much. And I am very impatient. I never made too much money in life and I am 30, and I feel like a failure. I feel maybe I will never succeed or amount to anything.
There is a part of me that wants to have power to do great things and change things in the world. But I think as I am getting older I fear that might never happen and I will live and die a boring life
Do you think it's normal?

Ever been to college? If not, move in with your parents and go to college. If so then you still have a lot of time to make somthing of yourself. Feel like you wont be successful? You won't then. Think you will? You WILL. Say it out loud, "I am great". Keep the thought in mind that you are great and will do great things. What talents do you have? Can you do well as an engineer? Can you do somthing for medicine? Can you draw? Can you sing? Can you make others feel good? Whether you make the next new invention to make life easier or you teach the worlds a new way to live happy, you WILL do great things. If it helps, I beleive you'll do somthing great. So does the thousands of people on this site. We know you can help the world. It's up to you find out how. Good Luck!

Whoa whoa, how can you be satisfied and broke? You my friend, is not an American. But what you said at the end, I have to agree. Life is what you make. If you feel unsuccesful, do drugs. The way you make it sound, you have nowhere else to go but up. You'll find something some day.

welcome to modern day society. Life isn't fair and thats the truth, some people are born into money and never have to lift a finger their whole life,no matter how bad of a person they are. Some are born into poverty and work like slaves to be unappreciated and paid squat no matter how good of a person you are.

Its not you, its the world you live in. People that manipulate others for profit are considered successful and accomplished people, while those that work hard and are fair with others dont really make much and are considered losers.

Its simple really, do what makes you feel good about yourself, if its helping other for very little profit then so be it, its what makes you feel good about yourself, and thats what matters. Dont use society as a gauge in which to measure your worth, because society is screwed to the max these days. I mean people that risk their lives to save others are paid small salaries like cops and firefighters compared to someone who plays basketball and makes multi millions, who do you think is the more worthy person to make more money,probably not the one that does huh? Just look at the disparity between people who are no different than one another, something is very wrong.

Do what makes you feel good about yourself, thats the ticket to being happy.

Good Luck

I remember my professor saying to us, "Most you students entering 30's will question life" I did and you get up focus work your plan to completion. You have TIME!
