"...The woman who can create her own job is the woman who will win fame and fortune..."
(Amelia Earhart)
This applies to both men and women I feel... we all need to look into ourselves and discover our hidden potential and what are we "good" at... finding what we are good at and transforming it into a job... I can safely say... to find something you love doing... is probably the most gratifying feeling in the world.
I love asking my close friends... what are their goals... what are their dreams... just tell me... no holding back... perhaps this is why people thing I'm "weird" or "eccentric" but i do see potential in everything and I do believe in what people can do if they put their mind to it... i got ask these same questions a couple of years ago... and it stuck with me... it opens up conversations and you find unlimited potential of the things you can do
Myself... I'm constantly seeing myself transitioning into what I want to do with my life... or attempting to try something new to grow my seed... it saddens me when someone I care about seems like they are being "forced" into their profession because of the parental or guardian units
I don't mean to sound morbid - I've applied this to myself cause my mother, bless her, as supportive as she can be of me... she had a hard time understanding what I want in life... what good would a film degree do... "ok... petz... now you got your BA ... go for your masters..." I literally wanted to throw up... don't get me wrong... I love learning... I love reading... I have a very curious mind ... but school wise... I hate being restricted or being told... I gotta go to this class... and that class... to get piece of paper with my name... and a MASTERS seal...
Ok but going back to parents and guardians... we must realize as adults... we only got our parents for a certain amount of years... we can please and compromised... but we shouldn't sell out our dreams... cause once they are gone... what's next? you are stuck in a profession you didn't want to be in and you're miserable... or you learn to adapt but you never feel full.
