is that normal 24 unsatisfied life?

I'm 24 y/o I have an alright life. I'm a college and work in a small firm. I'm single average looking person. I feel incomplete! There are days I want to get leave work or school and run. Pay for a ticket anywhere far. I have dreams to travel and help others, maybe start my own business or non profit. I don't know how to start where or get help to start off my dreams.
These are just dream because reality sets in and I have responsibilities. Things are high price and I don't want to travel alone. I don't have much friends because my schedule is very busy. I don't have a purpose right now, I feel stuck and sad. I think about smoking or drinking to take the edge off of my sad life. I'm a accounting and finance major and I don't feel as smart as others. Whenever I speak with my family members about going for a big 4 company they say you need more polishing ect. I took this career path because I wanted money and to have a achieved something. Now I really just feel lost, idk how others make their dream become reality and are happy. I'm getting older but not wiser, just lost and frustrated. I know that there are unfortunate people out there and I shouldn't complain.
Can anyone relate to this? Is this normal? Is this a 20's crisis?

    A lot of people don't find their path until well into life. The longer you're around, the more things you will become aware of and hopefully, sooner rather than later, one will spark enough interest you'll go for it.
    Use college to learn how to start a business or non-profit; you are there anyway.
    Quite often, one begins traveling and meets a kindred soul on the road, so I wouldn't be put off by setting out alone.

    Good things seem to come more for me when I'm thinking positive - no matter what. Just ask for what you want everyday. Believe it will come (ignore naysayers and negative people). Be aware when the door of opportunity opens and act on it. Then receive and be grateful. Rinse and repeat. :)

    I think you need a spa day, sweetie. Seriously, get a Swedish massage and take yourself out for a nice meal. Go to the gym, watch your favorite sport on TV or favorite movie. Pamper and enjoy yourself! I learned from my dad when I was a kid that there's nothing like a long bike ride with him while he was running then we would go for ice cream, watch cartoons and let the dogs in the house. Good times!
