I already knew some of occupations at age 5 like doctor or engineer and scientist as well as what they do.
A Relative Who Asked This...
I still remember that day when we visited a relative place and one of em asked me what do you want to become after growing up?
I took some time and than said "Engineer" one of em was like why not doctor and only if I knew to answer leave that to me I'll decide it first let me grow.
Anyway Glad no one asked why engineer and here's why it was my dream childhood job.
Story of My Childhood Dream Job
I used to watch a TV show back then in childhood there was one show on cartoon network I never missed to watch although I don't remember the name of it but the show was based on First Breaking the whole thing and making something out of it.
Like there's a washing machine, that Guy will tear it apart and gonna make something cool.
From the day 1 it made me curious that it's possible to shape things, build something new outta existing things.
The whole thing was so fascinating and at some point I just started collecting wires and pieces to do my own experiments.
At that time there was no YouTube, just Television and that one show. So, it wasn't like I'll just Google something and start making it.
But whatever comes at my hand whether a remote of car, cell or stuff I'll do break em make something else.
An antenna, A light that works from motor i took out of car and such kinda thing's I've created in my childhood with zero tools.
The Curiosity Leads to Building
Later when I got computer that was my first time gift by mom cuz of good grades and on that I started trying stuff like Ms word and paint, making house which was my first art design used to watch house building in neighborhood and whatever work is going on.
There was some curiosity and that lead me to build, try it out and used to tell myself this is my dream job after growing up.
Time changes everything
The thing is time doesn't remain same and it changes your whole personality I'll call it some traumas who made kinda mature and a shift in personality.
Have lost that charm of being an engineer or anything.. that's where reality meets expectations.
Anyways, never got the chance to do dream job but did some other 9 to 5 and realized it would be better to have a own business setup. So, that's the dream job now.
Wrapping Up...
Yeah, that's how the years have gone and as time goes on it does change the way you think, dream and expect things to be.
Now it's like that part of the maturity where dreams are more realistic and will remain same until achieved and making everything possible to do it learning from the early age mistakes.
In the end do let me know your thoughts about it and the way things went with you.
