[QUOTE="JCNodak, post: 151758, member: 2902"] Please don't take my hard truths as trying to talk you out of it. I am just speaking from my own experience. I originally went to school to be a teacher but things went sideways in college and I didn't cut the mustard. I have since looked into going back as the summers off are quite tempting, but it's not my passion. When I figure out what that is I will let you know. For now, I make a good living, with a great company doing something I enjoy that in the end helps people. Did I settle? Probably. Do I think every day what if? Most days. I think most of us do. The ones that don't are the ones that chase their dreams. Since I was very young my dream was to be a professional bass angler. Of course it is an achievable goal, but the likelyhood of success is low. It would mean uprooting my family and being apart from them more than I am willing to do. Moral of the story is if you know your passion and have a plan and it will work, please do it. Do it for all of us that either never realized our dream or chose not to peruse them for whatever reason. [/QUOTE]
