Hey Micheal!
I think the best place to start is to just do some research on all of the things that sound interesting to you as a career to pursue in the future. Try talking to your guidance counselor at school too. You're still really young and have plenty of time to figure out what to do with your life.
I went through a similar phase when I was 13 and realized I had no clue what I wanted to do with my life and flipped out. I went on a googling rampage for a couple of weeks looking up the job descriptions and requirements for anything that sounded slightly interesting. It ended up making me feel so much better though by just helping me narrow down the options a little. Hope this helps, and good luck!
