Did you fulfill your dreams yet?

I think all of us had some dreams that we thought of when we were growing up.
Some people wanted to be doctors, actors, teachers etc.
What did you want to be when you first had a thought about your future. That idea probably changed as you got older.
Many people go to college and still don't have a clue what they wanted to do in their lives.
What about you, did you end up doing what you originally planned?

when I was a kid I really wanted to be a teacher, but my parents didn't want that for me. I ended up following what they wish as I believe I'm a very obedient daughter. But when I was done fulfilling their dreams, I pursued mine. Yes, I taught and I still do until now but at the same time, I'm also a CEO of my own company.

@ramapo17 thank you. I wanted to please my parents first and then myself.

@toniganzon That is great. Some parents always think they know best what is for their child and I do not believe that to be true.

My dream was to work hard and retire early - and we did that. We quite working at ages 53/57 - moved south and never took a loan nor do we owe anyone a penny. That was my dream....to live comfortably young enough t enjoy it thoroughly.

Not even remotely close which I suspect happens to many.

Not all of them, but I'm on my way to get there.

I can't remember thinking when I was young, when I grow up I want to be a.... I just wanted a quiet happy life because my childhood was such turmoil most of the time. So if that is considered a dream than I have reached it by the grace of God. Have a blessed day
