Get your education, and if you see small opportunities, take them. Each one could be a stepping stone to something bigger.

Do internships and work your butt off to learn as much as you can and prove yourself.
Try out lots of different options early in your career. Then watch the responses: how you feel, what the market values, what people appreciate about you. It's the only way to find work that's uniquely right for you.
There's an awful lot of choices in the world as far as what one can do for a living. It's best to be familiar with as many sectors of the working world as you can be so you'll be better at your creative job anyway.
I have degrees in social science, math and physics. Everything but business.
Apply yourself. Get all the education you can, but then, by God, do something. Don't just stand there, make it happen.
Do whatever interests you the most. Passion breeds success.
Find something that you're really interested in doing in your life. Pursue it, set goals, and commit yourself to excellence. Do the best you can.
The things you're passionate about and interested in, get experience with them by going deep on projects. I would encourage science projects, plays. Pursue science, math, writing, history - the 21st century demands a lot of cross-disciplinary thinking.
I would say if you do have ambitions, don't just wait around. Go out and make yourself as well-qualified as possible so you can take that rare opportunity when it comes along.
Find and use your passion, and you'll have a great career. Don't do it, you won't. It's as simple as that.
