    Serious or for fun? Because I wish I’d realized that someone has to design toys and taste chocolate.

    I want to be a cartoonist (on the side) but I have no drawing talent. I’m trying to be patient to get better but I easily get discouraged on shit like this.

    I would love to work with any type of animals in any capacity. They’re the only thing I’m truly passionate about.

    Also, I’ve been told by more than a handful of people that I would be a good ESL teacher. I love reading and language arts and I guess I’m good at explaining it, too. I think I would have enjoyed that as a career.

    I wish I could train dogs. Not people (like puppy classes), just the dogs. Like board and train or guide dogs of Canada puppy years.

    I also want to be an executive administrative assistant to someone really important. I love organizing things. All the office supplies. Writing, reading, reporting… my mission would be to help and support my person. The bonus is that I wouldn’t have the responsibility of supervising other people, or taking all the heat if a project failed. I’d just be a helpful person who got paid decently.

    I do freelance travel photo and video with my husband and love it so much, but the constant hustle of freelance is exhausting.

    I wish I could do my job and just… have more money. Not have to worry about making money.

    An interior designer but I am a left brained science person, so all the right brained creative stuff is not really my forte. I admire people who make it in creative jobs that require talent , like my friend is a game designer/ illustrator and another is a manga artist, it’s so cool and interesting to me.

    I work as a doctor so it’s more of a linear path of studying and not talent based as such.

    I’m working as a writer, but in the tech industry. I’d love to make a living writing books. I’ve published over a dozen books (including with some major publishers), but to actually earn a living writing books is tough. It’s a long-term goal, though.

    Alternatively, I’d love to earn a living doing energy work, guide work, or some kind of healing. It’s possible, but takes long time to get started and build up a clientele that will actually pay the bills. And there are so many shifty people in those industries who are unethical and take advantage.

    I’m another life, I’d do graphic design. I fell in love with it when designing my wedding invitations years ago, but it was just a fun project.

    Either a Forest Ranger or a book reshelver at the library. Basically walking around and only talking to people as needed.
