Yes! When blockbuster had the mail in movie service, I always returned mine at the store and ended up chatting with the employees who would recommend so many movies that I love and would never have seen had it not been for them 🥰🥰🥰

Criminal Profiler. Hopefully some day – I’m currently in a masters program for forensic psychology. 😍
I want a career in proofreading and editing. Trying to work toward that, even if it is a bit late in the game. I wish I could tell my college-age self that I should get the master’s in English and give law school a miss.
Rebecca, I’m trying! 🙂 The challenge is finding ways to get my name out there and get folks willing to take a chance on someone who doesn’t have formal education or work experience, but rather a strong natural inclination to proofreading. I work with two authors, proofreading their books, and they’ve had good things to say. Hopefully that will translate into some other people who’ll let me polish up their writing.

Yes, two authors’ books proofread will look good on a resume. Law school shows tenacity. Could you proofread for students at a local college? -Rebecca

As long as you started to work towards that, you’re on the right track even though it’s a bit late in the game. Never stop believing!
Sorry I did not reply earlier, Bogdan. I landed my college (political science) teaching job when I was 49. I had been teaching elementary school before that. I loved working with the college “kids” and other professors.

This is a good question 😁. Exactly what I’m doing now. Working with kids. Shaping them for a better future for our country and just loving them. 7 to 12 year olds. I hava a small Aftercare Centre where I help them with their homework, some special needs kids as well. It is awesome and I’m so blessed 😁
I would love to do everything I love to do, and get paid for it! Writing, travel, photography, reading, and doing my Health Coaching. (I’m a Certified HC) I only want to work about ten hours a week, but I’m very reliable and passionate about what I do! I am making strides. Good luck with YOUR dream job, everyone!
Photography, capturing nature’s pure beauty and the pain we’re causing in an effort to help combat climate change and our plastic epidemic! Something that benefits the planet as well as my own peace of mind.
I make a lot of jokes because life shouldn’t be taken so seriously. And people mistake me for my message, and then I because the joke. And then I guess I am, I become my own punchline… I’m too serious and not serious enough.
Exactly what I am doing: Working to make the life of those who are unfortunate have a better chance at a good life, with plenty of time to write and blog and create.
Work from home, data entry maybe or something more creative like embroidery and running my own business. The idea of working from home is what I like the most, I think I would be more productive, and could organise my time better. Dunno anyone who does it though in my immediate environment so I have no feedback
I don’t agree, I believe you can be more productive this way, and work specific hours. Sometimes in the office work can be slow and maybe thre’s nothing to be done but you have to be there as you are being paid for it. Wasted hours.

dance, write , sing(if I had a good voice for it), travel…or maybe work as an aviation psychologist.
I’m currently working toward my dream. Two years ago, I found myself fed up with the decisions I had made up to that point so I made a major change. I pursued a career in writing. I am currently a content writer and social media coordinator, but my dream is to be a screenwriter. I am now working on three side projects; a novel, a short story, and a screenplay.
You want something? Go after it, because it won’t come to you.
I’d love to be creative for a living.
Write, obviously. Take photos. Create beautiful paper, invitations, personal stationary, etc. Design and create beautiful living spaces. Create names for nail polish and paint colors. Create beautiful organization in living spaces.
Absolute bliss!
Dream
How come?
WRITE AND DANCE MY WAY
That would be so awesome…
I’m already living in it
Took the better part of 6 years of learning to trust myself …. and SO worth it
Weird thing is, even if I don’t get paid, this is what I’ll still do anyway 😊
That’s the best! It means that you’re doing it for you! The best motivation! Congratulations! 😀
Write stories
What stops from doing it?
Money; survival. Writing stories is kind of a chance job, if it fares good you are successful and if it doesn’t then you are in good need of money.
shooting documentaries, design and arts
What’s the first step you can take towards that?
Work at Blockbuster and/or be a movie critic. Seriously.
So you’d love to watch movies and share your opinions with an interested audience, right? This is interesting.
Yes! When blockbuster had the mail in movie service, I always returned mine at the store and ended up chatting with the employees who would recommend so many movies that I love and would never have seen had it not been for them 🥰🥰🥰
Criminal Profiler. Hopefully some day – I’m currently in a masters program for forensic psychology. 😍
Awesome! Keep going! Unfortunately, people need great criminal profilers.
Reblogging this to my readers at sister site Timeless Wisdoms
Thank you very much for your reblog!
My pleasure!

Law school is great preparation for writing and editing, I would think. : ) Go for it! -Rebecca

Living in my own way, in my own World…❤❤❤❤❤❤
How would that look like?
Designing products, buildings, websites, people and designing the whole world! (as wierd as it sounds 😉 )
It seems that you have the heart of a designer 🙂
Yes i do😊
I was fortunate to land my dream job, teaching political science. (After slogging through some not-so-dreamlike occupations)
Interesting! How old were you when you landed your dream job?

Yes! Spread the love!
Travel for a living
I’d love to do that too!
Write. Here I go faking it til I make it : ) -Rebecca
I think you already made it, Rebecca! 😀
Thank you, that’s very nice.
Photography, capturing nature’s pure beauty and the pain we’re causing in an effort to help combat climate change and our plastic epidemic! Something that benefits the planet as well as my own peace of mind.
This is the best combination! Too bad we’re the ones hurting the planet…
Read tarot cards, make music, write, be taken seriously
How come you think you’re not taken seriously?
I make a lot of jokes because life shouldn’t be taken so seriously. And people mistake me for my message, and then I because the joke. And then I guess I am, I become my own punchline… I’m too serious and not serious enough.
I would love to be an author!
With hard work you can be one. Just make sure you love the process too, not only the outcome.
That’s great advice, thank you!
Exactly what I am doing: Working to make the life of those who are unfortunate have a better chance at a good life, with plenty of time to write and blog and create.
Congratulations! I’m so happy you love what you do for a living! <3
Write every day on my own schedule!
How far are you from that?
I hope within a couple of years 😊
Travel
Nice! What are your top 5 destination you’d love to reach?
Be a full time Artist and study Parapsychology….but it would be hard to survive if I did that. Maybe if one day I get to retire.
Maybe you’ll find a way to make it real 🙂
philanthropy!
That would be very noble…
Work from home, data entry maybe or something more creative like embroidery and running my own business. The idea of working from home is what I like the most, I think I would be more productive, and could organise my time better. Dunno anyone who does it though in my immediate environment so I have no feedback
I think the toughest aspect is the schedule. If you’re your own boss, you might tend to cheat on your schedule…
I don’t agree, I believe you can be more productive this way, and work specific hours. Sometimes in the office work can be slow and maybe thre’s nothing to be done but you have to be there as you are being paid for it. Wasted hours.
dance, write , sing(if I had a good voice for it), travel…or maybe work as an aviation psychologist.
That’s a great list! What’s your first choice?
Can’t keep a hand on one. But, the first that comes to my mind is Dance.
I have quite a few things I would love to do for a living. Which I am working towards 😁
Regional Fundraiser, Wedding Planner, Patient Representative, support patients who are in Critical Care/ICU and their families.
Wow! Awesome list! I’m so happy you’re working on that! Keep it up!
Thank you 🙂
Film, edit, take pictures, I have a few in mind
Nice! Are you working towards them?
Trying to

Wow! Congratulations! That’s pure awesomeness! What helped you make this decision?

Absolute bliss!
Are you doing it now for free?
Actually, yes.
Though for the most part, I do it to make my own life better. So that’s not exactly for free, more of an investment, right?
Write.
What do you love writing the most?
