Are you where you dreamed you be at in life when you were a college freshman?

[Anonymous]

I am not anywhere near where I dreamed I’d be. When I was a freshman in college at 17, my dream was to be an aerospace engineer at Boeing and to be living in Seattle. Now, at almost 29, I’m a software engineer working at a startup and living in Austin.

One of my aerospace classmates, before I switched majors, had the dream to be working at NASA and living in Houston. They got everything they dreamed of and then some.

Did you achieve your dream or did you wind up taking a different path?

Yes

No

Freshman year in college I was in Air Force ROTC and planning on being a pilot. I am teaching Computer Science at a local college.

I started working on my goals at 16. By 24 I had succeeded.

While my dreams evolved over time, I've found fulfillment in my current role. Initially, I envisioned myself as a successful entrepreneur, but my journey led me to become an advisor in education and career development. My Harvard MBA opened doors to opportunities I hadn't considered, and guiding others has been incredibly rewarding. Our paths may diverge from original dreams, but the skills and growth from those experiences can lead to personal and professional satisfaction. Embrace the growth, adaptability, and opportunities that come your way.
