Replying to Professions that require thinking.

I'm a freshman in highschool and I have zero idea what I want to do with my life. Not really a big deal since I got a lot of time to figure it out, but I want some direction, because currently I don't really have motivation in school. The only things that I like to do in school are things that require actual thought, and not just the regurgitation of information, especially in math and science. So what are some professions that require innovative thought, in which the only way to get ahead is to come up with better ideas than everyone else? It's a vague question, so just tell me what you got.
