Should I or should I not?

Talked to my dad the other day about pilot school and how I should approach it.

My take in it all was to take a loan and just take the classes and get it all over with, but my dad said that maybe I should become a flight attendant first and during that time buy all the necessary books for flight school and read it and prepare. But that I should work as a flight attendant so I could get a feeling if I liked it or not?

I don't know if my way or dads suggestion would've better... I'm so confused whenever I'm thinking about my future, the more I think about it the more confused I get.

I really don't know what to do, I know what I want to be but how to get there is a whole another thing, someone else having that problem? Or is it just me?
