And by What did you want to be when you were growing up, I don't mean something like I wanted to be michael jordan and did nothing about it.

I mean something that you really worked toward for a period of time and actually had a tangible time frame and what not.

For example, I wanted to be a professional tennis player and trained insanely for a couple years, i made it to the junior national level but nothing more.

I'm now an importer and distributor of consumer goods.

There are three things I've always wanted to do for as long as I can remember.
I wanted to be Rambo, an engineer, and build a million dollar business.


I'm a former Marine, currently an engineer, and working on the million dollar business.

I wanted to build roller coasters so I went to college to study engineering. I am still in engineering, but using my powers for making new energy systems and not fun rides.

I wanted to make comic books, movies and tv shows. All through grade school I got in trouble for drawing and writing in class. In high school I caught the tv bug and begin working at tv stations doing camera and audio. My parents couldn't afford film school so I went to school for communications, dropped out to start my own video production company.

I'm a graphic artist,editor, marketer in local tv and video production.

always wanted to be a lawyer or hockey player but my grade % and athletic ability(lack there of) kept me out.

I had a knack for oragnizing people, so I eventually became a party promoter at night, and I work in sales during the day.

Didnt think I would end up in this position but I'm happy with what I got and Im aware there is still more mountians out here to conquer.

:yes:
