When I was a child in the 60s and early 70s, I dreamed of being an astronaut and flying to the moon. (It seems I wanted to escape to somewhere remote even as a young child.) I went through a phase of wanting to be a preacher. I thought about becoming a doctor.
I didn’t do any of those things other than move farther and farther away from family for various and sundry reasons. I chose a career in international sales management, because it took me far away. After 2 decades of doing that, I went back to school for an MA and loved it. I left the rat race.
What’s been your experience? Have you stuck with one job or one line of work? Have you changed career paths at some point?
