Two days ago I went to an interview.
The interviewer spotted my all time problem and gave me this advice:
"You have to find out where you passion is, then you will know what is the thing you really want to do."
What's my dream?
In the past few years, I've always thought I don't want to be a high school teacher because
even though I can do it (the teaching part) properly, I am not into it.
All the irrelevant issues one has to take care of outside of teaching
bugs me to an extent that I wish not to be a part of it.
And I've wanted to be either a marketing specialist or a business consultant or a musical performer.
I think these things are where my passion is.
But, I've never worked towards these "dreams"; I am stuck up in the middle of no where.
Now I realize my true dream is to start a family with the girl of my dream (whom hasn't shown up yet) and raise kids together.
I have to live a life exemplifies Christ. I will educate my children to be God-fearing and Bible-abiding Christians.
To make that happen, I have to have a decent job that generates fair income to support them.
I don't have to be wealthy, but I need to spend time with them,
and have Saturdays and Sundays off from work so I can get involve in church activities.
In that sense, marketing specialist, business consultant, and musical performer, are all out of the equation!
With my qualification and ability, chosing to be a high school teacher as a career seems like the most logical (or practical?) choice to fulfill my dream.
I just realized that.
How good an example my mother had been!
Wow.

I think it is a very good strategy to focus on what you can and what you need as you are planning for now. In the mean time, may be you can try to explore your hidden potential more sensitively and proactively (people all have some kind of potential needing to be explored). With that in mind may be someday you will fide yourself capable of helping the society in a better way. Kuo-Chung Liu
