SteemAlive Presents: Inside Life! An engaging contest story tracing career paths from childhood. (60 Steem Prize + upvotes)
Introduction
We recently did a mini contest where we challenged you to suggest contest ideas for our next contest. We are happy to see you friends respond with really great ideas that we very well appreciate. While we could not pick any out of the few you presented, we are pleased to inform you that we will give out consolation prizes for all the entries. Additionally, we are going to pick ideas from those entries in the nearest future. When we do, we will still inform the person and give further rewards to them.
We thought deeply about the recent contest by @shortsegments where he encouraged engagements and making real connections through comments. We as a community always encouraged our members to take commenting serious since it is a crucial step towards great friendships and connections. However, we decided that our next contest should be an interesting subject of personal nature which everyone would want to talk about. Then we will also require serious engagement as part of the contest. To that effect, we wish to announce this very contest entitled Inside Life.
Inside Life - The Contest.
When we were young or younger, we had dreams of what we wanted to become when we grow up. Many said they would become pilots, engineers, nurses and many many other things. Unfortunately, few people grew up or have grown up to successfully pursue their childhood career dreams. The majority of us grew up and found ourselves into a completely different career or are currently pursuing a different career from what we had wished as kids. What happened along the way? We want to know.
How to Join
In the comment section of this post, tell us about your childhood career dreams. For example, had you wished to become a doctor when you grow up? Are you a doctor now or currently studying Medicine? How where you able to make this dream a reality. If you changed your career path like most of us did, why did you do that? What really happened? We want to hear your story!

Hello, i'm really delighted in participating in this contest, based on the aforementioned by @steemalive, i bring to you my childhood career path.
When i was a kid, i could remember when i gather with my friends and then in our discussion, we will be talking about our career path. i told my friends that i will be a medical doctor, lolz, doctor that doesn't know how to read and write then. I said this because all my friends choose the path of becoming a doctor, I had to join them. This was during my primary school days, when i entered secondary school level, i still worked with that goal of becoming a medical doctor. Anytime my friends sees they call me young doctor and this gives me joy. So i studied hard, like i said earlier, i don't know anything, how to read i don't know even to write self na war. So i had to struggle in other to become a medical doctor.
I hated acts department because I'm not good in oral, so this made me to choose science during my senior secondary school days.
one day I met a friend of mine, He was writing some programing language, programming his website with javascript, then i didn't know its called javascript . I made some research and found out that it is all about computer and languages. So I had to key into it, it became interesting and then the passion to become a web programmer(front-end developer) started developing inside me. i had to change the dream which i have been nursing for many years today from doctor to a computer scientist. Today I'm still on the pursuit of being a computer scientist, I'm currently level 100 studying computer sci. I believe before i would finish the course i will become the person i ought to be in life. Though in nigerian institutions today, Lecturers don't basically teach you how to write a program. So i go extra miles in research and learning just to become a professional website developer.
Thanks for reading

@marydexplorer, it was tough/uneasy situation that even made me unbalance on my first career path, i choose the path of being a medical doctor because almost all my friends are into that path. It was quite unfortunate that they didn't motivate me. The career that motivated me was that of programming. I dream to become to become a professional programmer and i'm into because of the passion i have for it.
#steemitconnection
@bright
that's really cool, doing something you have passion for is just the ultimate
And I'm sure you will do well in programming. I wish you the best of luck in the pursuit for your dream career.
#onepercent #nigeria
#steemitconnection
Yeah, you actually said well @mary. You know choosing career path should be out of love and passion. My aspiration and dream is in programming is too big, my fervent prayer is that God should take me there.

Hola amigo, la vida da muchas vueltas, pero creo que al final todo ocurre por una razon y como dices no eres medico para las personas; pero seras un excelente medico informatico, el mejor.
Definitivamente hay mucha influencia de las personas a nuestro alrededor sobre nuestras decisiones.
Te deseo mucho enxito en la plataforma y fuera de ella.
sí, @genomil en realidad es un turno. ser un médico informático será bueno a cambio. gracias por dejar caer sus pensamientos
#steemitconnection
Hola como estas, que interesante tu historia de medico a informático, sabes a veces uno quiere ser algo o estudias y lo ejerces como obligado y te frustras pero tu a tiempo pudistes estudiar informática y puede ejercer la dos porque puedes ser un medico investigador. Espero que logres ser un gran científico.
Hola, ser médico fue una carrera de la niñez jaja, la verdadera carrera comenzó cuando me inspiré en un amigo. Estoy muy contento con mi trayectoria profesional actual. @rosanita me encanta tu presencia en esta amplia discusión, gracias por el deseo
Being a doctor back then was the common trend while in school. I don't really know how easy we thought being a doctor could be. You wouldn't blame us for being intrigued by the thought of seeing ourselves in the shoes of a doctor at that little age whereas the reality is that being a doctor requires utmost concentration and reading.
#steemitconnection
❤️❤️❤️❤️
Becky.
Yeah, back then in school almost all of them were in this career path, it was funny when i received a call from a friend aspiring to be a doctor back then in secondary school days, i asked him about his later career path he told me that he's currently studying statistics, lolz. You know, Being a medical doctor requires more of reading and concentration.
#steemitconnection
@bright-obias being a doctor is one task that requires commitment and self confidence, is good that you have the determination to chase your dreams despite the challenges surrounding it, keep it up💪
#steemitconnection
The confidence of becoming a doctor was not there, so i had to change that path. I really thank good because am still on the pursuit of my current career path. Thank you for participating.
Thanks bro, you did just The right thing by chasing the path you think you can do better, atimes it's not really easy to take that giant turn after everyone must've compelled you to do choose that particular carrier most people fall to such victim in a quest to please those that believes in them
#steemitconnection
Haha, its truly a giant turn bro
@bright-obias
The young doctor of Steemit 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Happy for you u got desire and drive that's an extra motivation
Great work guy
@peperaina
Its really pleasing to me that you participated on this contest. Don't worry i'll tell @focusnow to bail you lolz. Thank you for participating
#steemconnection
@bright-obias
Hahaha am not ready to be jailed oooo I love it in here
Hahahaha, okay oh let me allow you to enjoy there
@bright-obias it's so amazing that your friends could encourage you on your career path. Well.. the path you are pursuing now is not bad either. Programming is very nice. And interesting.
Yeah, its great being a programmer, my friends really encouraged me, it was because of there influence that i got a clue of what career is all about, lolz.
Similar goal with mine @bright-obias ; i believe we will get there someday with our mind fixed on it;
Never give up on your goal , keep your mind stayed on and keep the dream alive
It ifHello @jacci its good we're on this together. Being a programmer or a medical doctor it requires **Critical thinking, Collaboration, Communication and creativity, that's the 4cs. with this attributes in us we can fly higher. Thanks for participating in this contest.
#steemitconnection
@bright-obias every Nigerian want to study medicune and surgery, so it's of no surprise you choose that path initially . I have always loved computer science or computer engineering, it's so cool and exciting how our world is been shaped by gadgets and I would want to be in the front end of that revolution.
#Steemitconnection
Lolz, that's nigerians for you. Technology is now the king of this world, that is why we ought to key into it, it nice you're interested in this career path.
Hint:-
Persistence is the key, it will help you go higher @whitestallion@bright-obias. Amazing Story. It's really interesting to see that your friends both inspired your first choice of Medical doctor and another friend also inspired you to now study Computer Science. Happy you didn't miss the two. So far, do you love the Computing career you finally settled for. If given another chance between medicine and Computing, which will you choose?
Actually, computer science is my course and the career path i've choose, to be honest i would go for computer science...
Thanks for the comment, i really appreciate it @steemalive
Hahaha medical doctor that doesn't know how to read and write indeed, but you can still achieve that if you put your head and mind to it;
Determination can still help you achieve your goal
very funny @dliones, you know, becoming a medical doctor requires constant learning and study; these attributes were not in me then... so i had to pulse but my current career path requires more critical and and constant study. its only determination that will take me there
Thanks for Reaching out to me..
Good writing. I had also a dream of becoming doctor,but i am failed in that. So i changed my carrier path like you. But i am not much older like you,so i am still a student.
This is an amazing contest, it brings back so much amazing memories most people
Like us had when we were very young. I'm gonna participate in it.

@steemalive this is my entry
When I was much younger, I can't really remember what exact age I was then so I told my mom how much I loved music and that I Would love to be a musician when I grow up. My mom replied to me saying, "I love your dreams my girl" she said that while looking into my eyes , "but we don't have enough money to sponsor you on that" she said. I asked her what about my uncle, uncle O. T your brother, he's wealthy so he can sponsor me. My mom agreed with me this time because she wanted to end the discussion as I was begining to bother her with so much questions.
Today, I am a science lab Technologist, currently a student of Food science and Technology soon to be a graduate by 2021 by the special grace of God. I am also a caterer but in all these I didn't attend any music class or school not because I don't want to but because I see music as my destiny not as my career even if I obtain all the certificates in the world I will surely go for my music training even if nobody sponsors me with finances. I will make money through my career to help myself.
Currently I am undergoing some vocal trainings in my church choir ever since i joined the choir in my new church I've come to realize that there's more to music(gospel) than just being a career or hobby. My family church was not helping my music life until I was old enough to take decisions for my self. So I made the decision of joining my own church which is RHYTHM 5 INTERATIONAL this was where I came to understand that my passion for music(gospel) was not just a mere thing it was deeper than I thougt and it must surely come to fulfillment it might take a while but it must manifest. I belove in myself and I believe in my destiny.
@marydexplorer. Powerful story and strong love for music. We would love to hear you sing someday. Your passion for music is undoubted strong and we hope you will achieve your dreams as a successful musician. You also have done well as a food technologist and lab Scientist. Keep up your dreams and work hard to achieve the. We wish you the very best!!
@steemalive thank you sir for your support.
#steemitconnection
@marydexplorer your story is super interesting. I am moved. 😄😄
Thank you @craxywriter
@marydexplorer Am sure after the vocals you will be a perfect singer. I wish I had some training too. Will you teach me?
@yes ma'am the trainings will really help my vocals.
I would love to teach you but we're not clos enough to host training class
#onepercent #nigerria
#steemitconnection
@marydexplorer its so good reading from you, i can see how inquisitive you were that made your mum to agree with you. Your passion for gospel music is so emotional to me, i hope you will compose a music(gospel) one day so i can listen from you and then feel the presence of God. Your career path is so wonderful dear.
#steemitconnection
@bright you will definitely hear my songs and feel the presence of God.
Thank you for your support
You are welcome @mary
@marydexplorer
Wooooooow the musician of steemit🤣🤣🤣🤣😍😘😍😘😍😍
What a dreams while we were chasing rat God was busy building something big for us
Congrat dear, please u have to sing for us someday in jail
I believe is that if you have deep passion for music, no matter how long it takes, one day you'd be drawn to that musical path. It all starts from there. Most great musicians today had a background of first singing in the church.
Your present course is beautiful one but then I believe you'll not relent in pursuing your dreams and one day that manifestation you've always wanted will happen.
#steemitconnection
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Becky.
@beckie96830 you are absolutely right. Time really does not count when you have passion for something. As long as the the fire still burns. You will definitely achieve it.
@I'm really touched by your words 😭. Once the fire Is still there it's achievable.
Thank you @craxywriter
@becky
yes you are right, it will surely come to manifestation. Thank you
Wow, you must be a very good musician then,cause you definitely went out of this world just so you would do what you love doing, I wish I could summon enough will to take such a decision in my part.
#Steemitconnection
@whitestallion when you have a deep passion for something I think you can anything just to have it.
Music is not just a hobby to me it's part of my life. And I won't quit until it happens.

Hola como estas, sabes puedes ejercer tu carrera cuando la culmines y se que puedes llegar a ser un gran músico también, si ese es tu sueño lo vas a lograr.

Desde que recuerdo mi infancia siempre quise ser periodista, aunque no me gustaba hablar en público, pero pensaba en la prensa escrita, en la investigación; y era muy niña, estaba en la escuela primaria.
Recuerdo que en mi adolescencia mi madre me apagaba la luz del cuarto a media noche y me quitaba mis libros para que descansara, siempre me gustó mucho leer y escribir; y cuando agarraba un libro cuya historia me emocionara no quería soltarlo.
Tuve la suerte de que mi padrino trabajaba para una empresa donde vendía libros, “El círculo de lectores” se llamaba y el tenía un catálogo y me permitía escoger los libros que quería leer y me los regalaba.
Ya finalizando el bachillerato, que es acá en Venezuela que debes escoger la carrera a estudiar, mi padre me dijo que el periodismo era para hombres; y les cuento que por lo general y desde niña siempre imponía mis decisiones, pero esa la acate fácilmente, así que no se pueden imaginar la carrera que escogí y nadie se opuso, hoy día soy Ingeniero Agrónomo, mientras la cursaba al comienzo pensaba en ser reportera del Agro, pero cuando empecé mi vida laboral los objetivos cambiaron.
En el camino le tome mucho amor a mi profesión, y más que a la siembra me dedique a los levantamientos topográficos e inventario de zonas rurales, este si era un trabajo para hombres jajaja, pues permanecía semanas en el campo, en zonas de selva y montaña, en comunidades indígenas bien adentradas en la selva, siempre la única mujer acompañada de los hombres conocedores de la zona.
Mi padre nunca vio esto porque murió a mediados de mi carrera, creo que nos hubiésemos reído mucho juntos de ver lo fuerte de esta profesión para una mujer.
Hola amigos, esta es mi participación, saludos y mucho éxito a todos.
@genomil. Nos alegra que haya terminado con una carrera en Agronomía, aunque no era la carrera de sus sueños originales. Lo que importa es que encuentres alegría y satisfacción en lo que haces ahora. Como hizo su padre, es muy común que los padres decidan una carrera por usted. Pero pase lo que pase, nos alegra que aún hayas encontrado otra carrera que amabas. Sigue trabajando duro. le deseamos lo mejor en la vida.
Gracias por sus amables palabras, a pesar de no ser la carrera de mis sueños, siempre la he desempeñado no solo con profesionalismo, sino con mucho amor y se convirtio en la carrera de mi vida.
Gracias nuevamente, o mejor para ustedes tambien.
tu sueño de convertirse en periodista es tan desesperado, realmente me encanta, pero todo funciona en conjunto para el bien de los que creen. Sin embargo, ser agrónomo no es una cintura. Es tan doloroso que tu papá no existiera para ver tu carrera posterior. la profesión que luego indica es para los hombres en realidad, pero hay un dicho "lo que un hombre puede hacer, una mujer lo hará mejor" jaja, pensé que era una falacia hasta que lo experimenté. Gracias por participar
#steemitconnection
Hola amigo, si definitivamente todo pasa para bien. Y como dices he realizado mi trabajo de forma profesional y con buen desempeño a pesar de ser exigente fisicamente, pero lo hice jajaja.
Confio en que mi papa esta viendome y apoyandome desde donde esta.
Gracias por tu palabras, te deseo mucho exito.
Definitely, He will be proud of you.
Thank you very much
#steemitconnection
Hola @genomil la dos carreras son muy buenas cada una por separado, pero que bueno que gracias a tu padre te decidiste por la Ingeniería Agrónoma es una carrera muy interesante, creadora de consciencia respecto a la naturaleza y sobre todo llena de aventuras. Me encanta tu carrera ya que es muy similar a la Ingeniería Civil la cual es mi carrera.
Me di cuenta que tenemos mucho en común con respecto a las áreas donde hemos trabajado y desarrollado nuestras carreras, y de cómo nuestros padres ya fallecidos influyeron en nuestras carreras. El trabajar en zonas remotas y con dificultades de acceso es una experiencia muy gratificante ya que se conoce parte de nuestro país y la cultura de otras comunidades fuera que hacen vida fuera de las ciudades.
Saludos y mucho éxito, me gustó mucho tu post en este concurso de los amigos de @steemalive espero que seas una de las ganadoras.

Greetings. Thank you @steemalive for this wonderful opportunity to share my childhood experience with this amazing platform.
Growing up I had always thought of being am air hostess or a captain. Or i own a business. (Like a CEO). I had never relented my efforts. I was excellent in arts and I did not know how I would become a captain without knowing any subject in the science department.
Throughout the whole time. I prayed and wished I got into one of these jobs. But listening to some.Entreprenuerial seminars, I realised that I could also be a self employed human. So I started working on trying to be a self employed person. Training myself to have managarial skills. I had to battle between my artistic skills and social science. It waa not as easy. But it was worthwhile.
Today.. I am soon to graduate with a degree in Maritime Transport. (Not as a captain. But close). Again I own a growing company.(A pressing). I have not quite drifted from my dream and I thank God he is leading me on the right path.
Thanks for reading
@steemconnect
@craxywriter. We are so happy you have fought hard to be as close to your dream career as you can. Keep on pushing harder. As a young person, you still have the opportunity to achieve your dreams to become an air hostess. We wish you the best in your endeavors.
Waow this is great your dreams are still very much alive @craxywriter. Having to choose between skills you do so well isn't an easy task. Take your time listen your real self and make use of the perfect energy from within.
Thanks for Sharing with us.

You're really close to achieving your dreams. Your company shall reach the highest height you dream of if properly managed. Growing companies has this likely tendency of folding up due to lack of funding and maintain

Am so delightful to be a partaker of this contest. Thank you very much for this great opportunity given to me.
Oh yes, many have wanted to become one thing or the order but because of how life treat them they end up becoming another thing out of what they desire. Looking into my own life, right from my childhood, to be an Accountant has been my dream. I remembered when I do sit out with my friends and discuss what we want to be in future. I was the only one that want to be an Accountant among my friends. As of my secondary school, we were asked what we want to be in future, everybody said theirs, and i also say mine, my friends started discouraging me not to go on with decision of becoming an Accountant, all because they hate art as an department, saying Art Department speaks a lot grammer, and why they are trying to keep my mind away from my career dream is because they want to be a doctor, nurse, etc all in science, but am the type that hate science so much, i dont just like it because of medicine part of it.
So, they started putting fears in me, that those that works in bank as an Accountant are not paid well and they risky their lives. A friend brought up a story of how, she went to bank to pay in some money, getting there, she saw arm robbers with gun pointing it at people's in the bank, telling them not to move and they should bring out all the monies and phone they have. So after hearing all that, I became afraid of pursuing my dreams, I became worried, in fact I totally change my mind not to go further with my decision again.
On a faithful day, I went to my principal office, to discuss about my fear of becoming an Accountant, to the glory of God, God used him to encourage me and he told me not to listen to anyone based on what I want to be in future, I key in to his words and sit up again. When my friends will come again to discourage me, I will tell them When I Reach To That Breech I will Know How To Cross It, that makes them to stop disturbing me of that.
On the day of my final year exam in my secondary school I meant a new friend, who also have passion to be an Accountant. She is very intelligent in calculation, we both became friends. She helped me to know more in calculation, from her I also learnt how to make some research based on my career, and know more about Accounting, that only helped me to put more interest to become an Accountant.
After my exam, I moved to another city called Abuja, there I got admission and Accounting was given to me, which is what I wanted. Due to the system of my school I do research and also read on my own since I don't attend any lecture. To God be the Glory, am still pursuing it and hopefully in next 1year now I will be having my certificate as an Accountant.
Thanks for the time in reading.
#steemitconnection
👏👏👏 amazing. You shivered at the beginning but God sent a helper to you. Then you stood your grounds. You see what some friends can descourage you until you destroy your future. Chaii. And then they pursue their careers ehh. Mum. Hold on tight to your passion.. I support you. 💪💪💪
My dear @craxywriter, that is why they say mind the kind of people you follow. When you meet the wrong people, their intention towards you is to destory you. I really learnt my lesson from that, it help me to stand on my decisions.
Hahah thank God, i recieve a helper. Determinatio matters in everything.
#steemconnection #nigeria #steemalive #onepercent
Now this is one big case of peer pressure which partly led to inferiority complex. Hearing those stories and reasons to not take a particular decision from those you regard as friends would obviously have a massive effect. But most times it could be said that a career path pursued just for the name of it or how it might make you feel and not how you feel towards/ about it might end up in premium tears except you get lucky. I've got lots of friends who ventured into a career path different from their original Intention as a result of friends and this took a huge toll on them, regression in performances right from secondary school.
I'm happy you finally found your balance and took the right decision.
#steemitconnection
doppley
Exactly @doppley, this is more reason most people suffer today, because they listen to what people say to them, they have been discourage by the influence of people, they fail to listen to themselves and find who they really are, that it why after listening to people nd friend they end up suffering while them that discourage prosper.
I really learnt a lot from them, because hard it been followed them, my life could have been meaningless. But am still thanking God helping me.
#steemconnection
Hola, que bueno que hayas seguido tu sueño y no te hayas dejado influenciar por la opinion de los demas.
Te deso mucho exito en todos tus proyectos de vida.
Saludos.
Muchas gracias. En realidad, cuando el diablo quiere derribar a uno, intentará usar a las personas que están alrededor para envenenar la mente.
#steemconnection #onepercent
Oh my God your career path was kind of motivation to me , you know, my mentality then was that arts student can do oral english and i found out its actually truth. Thank god you are still in the pursuit of an accountant even when the pressure came upon you.
Hahahaha, you are right dear, as of tgen science department always see art department as a grammatic department. But to me, it wasnt so, every can speak grammer.
Hmmmm, the pressure isnt funny ooo, thank God they did not give me high blood pressure. All i know is that, what ever God have destiny one to be surly that we be no matter how hard people try to pull down. That is it.
Thanks for reading @bright-obias
exactly!.
am perceiving you are an expert when it comes in speaking grammer, lolz thats good of you dear.
Oh ye dear@bright-obias, sure one must be what he or she is destiny to be with the help of God and the person help too, because if God is working on you and you are not working on yourself , you go no where, him that God is helping needs to help himself. You dont sit at a place and wait for a miracle, ni way you cant get it.
So is only when know who you are, you can be able to overcome the temptation of human.
#steemconnection #onepercent
Its good to work hard because heaven help those who help themselves
Alrighte, i will teacg you
Hola a veces la vida nos presenta muchas situaciones pero lo importante es no abandonar lo que deseamos a pesar de que lo veamos lejos nuestros sueños no hay que desfallecer hay que motivarnos y lograr lo que queremos así como tu lo hicistes que lograstes tu meta
Exactamente. Una cosa acerca de la vida es que la vida te sacudirá hasta el punto en que no podrás sostenerte si no fuera por la gracia de Dios. Cuando tienes un sueño y trabajas para lograrlo, así es como puedes hacerlo. Pero, por otro lado, la mayoría de las veces las personas cometen el error de no saber lo que quieren, es por eso que rápidamente derriban a las personas que las rodean.
#steemconnection #onepercent #nigeria
@sambee this is really amazing,
Wooow...!!! I'm so happy for you dearie, pursuing your dream career is a great achievement.

Congratulations 🎉.

Greetings to you all, It is my pleasure to participate in this contest. It is sometimes disheartening to have dreams and aspirations without realising them. But all the same, one must move on to survive since there are other arrays of options available which one can also choose from and still fit in. Please patiently go through my lot in life in terms of my childhood dreams and what later turned out to be my actualised dream.
Actually, I had dreamed of becoming a nurse. I really put in my best to see to it that I actualise my dream for instance, I did sciences in my senior secondary school and cleared my papers in my SSCE. Then I began the process of admission into the school of nursing. I sat for the entrance exams in two schools and for up to 3 years without gaining entrance. I usually passed the exams and even go for the interviews, but at the end of it all, no admission. Then I changed my mind and decided to settle for Accountancy. Well I still did very well because I graduated with distinction. And I worked in some establishments as accountant with my certificate. I had also wanted to become a Chattered accountant by seating for the professional exams. But up till now I have not been able to do that. But since there is still life, there is still hope. I still keep hope alive.
Thank you @steemalive for this contest and thank you all for going through my post.

@ngoenyi it's really painful whenever you seat for high institution entrance exams you will be turned down.
You had a beautiful dream of becoming a nurse but situations couldn't permit that.
But I'm happy for you that you graduated with distinction you can always get a good career.

@ngoenyi
Well once there's life there's definitely hope and a light at the end of the tunnel,
I love your spirit u never gave up keep on fight still someday u will get there for sure
@ngoenyi it's really painful to watch your dream chatter before your eyes. But I am happy with your pushfulness. I am sure you will find something more befitting than the nurse profession. 👏👏 I congratulate your hope and courage. I hope I hve such heart.
Thank you dear @craxywriter. I appreciate you encouragement. Life must go on. There is nothing as good as being a boss of ur own. Infact, this covid-19 era has proved that to be true. So many people lost their job and some people in medical profession risjed their lives to save some while some even lost their lives. But i am keeping safe. All to the glory of the most high. So, i don't even feel disappointed at all now because when ons door closes, another one opens. Thank you for going through my post

Growing up as a child I always had the apt desire to be associated with the career path accounting. I would usually call myself a banker, an accountant and anything of such within the financial field. I held this desire and worked towards the career path up until my junior secondary school 3. It came the time I was to pick my department and suddenly I felt all my life had been a lie. I didn't know which to pick. My decision alternated between science and commercial, I had hoped the aptitude tests for departments would have brought light to my plight but all my teachers and counsellors could say was " you can pick any department of your choice, you did so well in the exams". Now this would normally be classified as good news but it only compounded my problems further as I had judgement disparities.
It was so bad that when the time came to get textbooks. At the bookshop I was unsure, I held the list of books for the two departments in my hand and stared at my dad, then at the book-keeper. I couldn't decide. My Dad was utterly surprised he expected to just get the list of books for the commercial department and go home but seeing me in such state he was worried. He drove me back to school on a Saturday to see my counsellor. After a thorough session, I found out the problem. My brother had always been in the science department and we've never been apart so I feared my decision to pick a different course would only split us.
However I got over this with help from the counsellor and went ahead with my long desired career path "Accounting". I've been doing so well in this field and to the glory of God I was able to gain admission to the University of Lagos to study accounting at first trial. I'm currently in my first year and so far it's been so good.
Glad I could make my post in time for the contest :)

¡Hola a Todos!
Yo soy Ingeniero Civil y la verdad estoy orgulloso de mi carrera, desde que era pequeño siempre me gustó mucho la construcción ya que me la pasaba viajando con mi papa a todos lados, él era Ingeniero Civil muy reconocido en el Estado Bolívar, siempre viajaba con el a todas sus obras mayormente eran en sitios lejanos como zonas rurales, comunidades indígenas y algunas hasta en otros estados del país.
De la experiencia de esos viajes fue que le agarre el gusto a mi carrera y poco a poco mi padre me ponía tareas para que fuera aprendiendo, yo lo veía a él y trataba de imitarlo en como trabajaba era muy bueno en lo que hacía.
Al momento de entrar a la universidad ya tenía mucho conocimiento de la carrera e incluso trabaja con mi papa y unos amigos de él que fueron mis profesores en la universidad, y con una firma de arquitectos realizando proyectos.
La verdad que siempre quise ser Ingeniero Civil desde pequeño, es una carrera muy bonita que te mantiene en contacto con la naturaleza y al aire libre.
Siempre tuve claro en lo que quería estudiar y hoy puedo decir que soy Ingeniero Civil gracias a las enseñanzas de mi padre. Espero les guste mi anécdota.
Saludos…

ahh @carlosespinoza eso es tan lindo. Supongo que es como padre, como hijo. mi hermano también es ingeniero civil, por lo que este comentario me parece interesante.
habiendo adquirido tanta experiencia de un miembro de la familia. Será fácil para ti y también tendrás un modelo a seguir a tu alcance en cualquier momento. Me encanta que siguieras adelante con tu deseada carrera desde tu niñez sin repensar. Eso es genial en mi opinión.

Hola @doppley la verdad que fue muy bonito obtener tanta experiencia de mi padre, la verdad no fue fácil el camino pero a la final logre la obtención de mi título de Ingeniero Civil. La celebración fue bastante grande.
Aunque mi padre ya no está en el plano terrenal sigo aprendiendo de él, como soy el único Ingeniero de mis hermanos me he encargado de arreglar todos los documentos que dejo mi papa y cada vez que busco me consigo con algún libro o guías bastante interesante. En vez de reciclar y botar cosas más bien las estoy guardando nuevamente jejeje
Tu comentario me hizo recordar muchas cosas agradables.
Muchas gracias amigo @doppley

As a growing child I found myself attracted to watching the Cable News Network popularly known as CNN. I envied the way Journalist Anderson Becky talked about the on goings in United States and the world at large. In the aspect of profession she became my role model and still is.
I find the concept of Journalism fascinating because it enables you give out information to the people which is a great perquisite in the world today. As the day goes by I find myself unconsciously exploring journalism and putting myself in the shoes of the Journalists. I communicate to the people on occasional basis and exchange information about things happening around.
Although presently I'm studying Banking and Finance in the university and I'm even in my final year. I chose to accept that career path because of the situation we have in our country Nigeria.
If I continue waiting for when I'll get admission to study Mass communication in the university of my choice, I'm looking at wasting five years minimum at home.
Nevertheless I haven't relented from developing myself in both my career and dream path. They can come in handy at anytime in the sense that I could focus my journalism on the financial sector.
Having a background knowledge of financial sector, it's Instruments etc I can be able to deliver more information about it to the general public.

The situation in the country now havr turn most people clock back, but never the less we got to take it the way we see it and keep struggling to get an better end.
Your second choice was great, keep it up.
#steemconnection
@beckie96830... You will have an additional advantage for training yourself to both. When you become accustomed to them you will be fluent in both banking dealings and also reporting on latest news. You are a strong Lady. 👏👏👏
I knew it, I could just tell. You have a unique way of documenting stuffs down @beckie96830. It's very hard for one to conceal his/her passions. As they say "when life throws you lemons, make lemonades out of it". That's clearly what you're doing here, placng yourself at an advantage.

Excelente que hayas aprovechado el tiempo y no esperar para estudiar la carrera de tus sueños, ya que ahora como bien dices puedes seguir estudiando y enfocar el periodismo en el sector financiero, genial idea y excelente decision.
Te deseo un mundo de exitos en tu vida y entodos tus proyectos.
You have a really brilliant plan as regards to your career,since you can't study mass comm in the university,you can deliver detailed information about the financial sector to the general public either as a writer or a journalist still. Great and I wish you the best of success.
hello @beckie96830 setting a role model for yourself is actually essential, i really loved that aspect of yours. its good reading from you
