Commitment
If you consider the old adage about 'The Englishman's Breakfast'. then doing so might reinforce what you really want for your future career.
It goes like this : - 'The chicken contributes the egg- but the pig is totally commited'.
A career as a commercial pilot can be supremely rewarding but to get there needs the will of Chairman Mao. He said, when explaining 'the long 3000 mile march' - "The hardest part is the first step".
Nothing is impossible, my friend, you just need the will (and the lolly).
Best wishes.
