How has your chosen job or occupation changed you?
by

1 Answer

Answer :

answer:I began as a free spirited dream chasing young man who never really accepted reality and sort of assumed I would get my big break in the music or entertainment industry. After college (round 1) I joined the military. I learned about reality, responsibility, and after a few hard lessons learned about finances. Now, 16 years later I continue to learn tough lessons about social dynamics, comradery, and productivity. A bit of my dream-chasing spirit was crushed, but in the process I became more realistic with my dreams and goals.. realizing that it takes a lot of perserverance and hard work. Part of that is just growing up as well, but the job has certainly taught me more than I ever would have learned in some other jobs.
