I now have Lizzie McGuire singing in my head and probably will for the rest of the day.<br /><br />I think your point about it being more about the kind of person you want to be and the kind of people you want to be around is an important one that a lot of people miss. I think sometimes people tend to think that if they find their dream job, then they'll be happy. They forget that while they may enjoy their JOB more, that doesn't mean they'll be happy or their life will be better. Even if your dream does involve a particular job or a job-like action (like publishing a book), you still need to work on yourself and your attitude just as much as you need to take practical steps toward achieving your "dream job."<br /><br />Lovely thoughts, lady. :)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4183889572568768724.post-70074405331577802062013-07-22T21:59:29.188-05:002013-07-22T21:59:29.188-05:00First of all, I LOVE the Lizzie McGuire shout out!...First of all, I LOVE the Lizzie McGuire shout out!! Hehe. I totally agree that dreams are so much more concrete as a kid and get more complicated with adulthood. I feel like my dreams change day to day. As a kid, I dreamed of becoming a teacher. Now that teaching is my profession, it feels more like a job and less like a dream come true, lol.

Then that dream got dashed, now when thinking of replacing it all I can really think of the type of lifestyle I want to lead- and even that I can simplify to only wanting peace.

With all the job interviews I've done recently, the only question I consistently struggle with is, "What is your five-year plan?" / "What is your ideal job?" which is funny because I've always been the person with the rest of my life planned out. But right now my priorities really are about how I spend the entirety of my time, including not spending so much time commuting and working that I don't get time with Mike or my friends. But that's hard to communicate in a job interview :)Jessicahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03117752360285429048noreply@blogger.com
