I feel that every single person at one point in their life has a dream job or a dream they want to achieve be it being a scientist or in my case I wanted to be a zookeeper
But as time goes on people seem to lose the spark deeming their dream careers as unattainable or ‘in another life’ but we only have this life there’s no other life for us, I just wonder sometimes when the doubt eats at me will I ever achieve what I dreamt of will I ever truly succeed. It’s demoralising listening and seeing others talk about how they gave up their dreams for family, the fact that the pays can’t sustain them or the fact that others have looked down at their goals.
However I believe that as long as I put my mind to it and keep working and walking forward one day maybe not easily but one day I will be able to work with animals or even own a sanctuary for animals because I think that if you had a dream or a calling it was there for a reason you were given that dream because you can achieve it. I just hope that no one gives up before they even try

thank you for this inspiring message 
I agree that we should diligent work for our dreams. 
Its sad to say that dream jobs not always pays well.
In fact for me, i not only work my dream job for free, i still have to spend money to “work” ,
And what i did is not even recognised widely, and i have to slowly push inch by inch to look for opportunities. Of over 70 emails i sent up to various org only 5 have gotten back to me and 3 have accept me
And being unemployed its is stressful to think about needing to take course from overseas for then needing qualifications. Its really where can i even find that money to study?
But still….no regrets in being a animal assisted activities volunteers.
Hi there,
I can see how challenging things have been for you, and I really admire your dedication to animal-assisted activities despite the obstacles.
I’d love to explore if we could collaborate in a way that puts your skills and passion to practical use, while potentially creating opportunities for income and growth. I specialize in Shopify, e-commerce AI, WordPress, and UI/UX design, and I currently need help from a native English speaker. Even small contributions could be valuable, and I’d be happy to discuss ways to work together at a pace that feels comfortable for you.
I completely understand the stress of balancing unpaid work and further studies, but I believe there’s a way to leverage your passion in a practical and rewarding way. If you’re open, I’d love to chat more about how we could make that happen.
Warmly,
Aoi
Hello, thanku for yr very positive post. Me too, ive alw seen docu and wanted to be zookeeper, or like write for mandai newsletters. I only got in as volunteer, no one called me back.
My other passion in life is writing, but as innie i dw the positions of having to interview ppl etc. after trying out a few jobs short term, i work as admin and then write fictions as hobby. The other thing abt asian parents is they not so supportive if choose dream jobs, or adhoc with low pay. Boomers kind 
… I think anyone who dun have bossy folks that grumb ‘u shld find job’ even during covid times, have better off time. I wun forget what rude comments stupid old man insulted me- since he stopped fulltime bef 2020, lazy NEVER acted responsibility, yet stil have gall to make demands.
Sorry, a little out of point but anyone whos got such Emo immature parents, stand firm agst their crap. Like i wouldn give him a $ becos obsession with going lottery every day, yet lie ‘no money’ for groceries
Hey @user1373
I love your spirit and I just want to reassure you that things will work out for you as long as you put your heart to it. I have personally seen it happening in my life and would like to share some tips and tricks I have used to simply make it happen.
- Manifesting : I manifested like crazy ever since I graduated from my secondary school and I must say it is the main reason why I am even able to get out of bed each day. Legit, I was super depressed with my grades back then, so much so that I couldn’t sleep at night. I used manifestation to help find guidance about how to get going forward.
- Doing something related to what you aspire to be. In your case, you said you want to be a zoo keeper. So you can get information about what a zoo keeper does. You start of by watching Bindi Irwin’s videos about how their family runs the Australia zoo. Or simple try to see if you can volunteer at Singapore Zoo.
Personally, manifesting itself can guide you to achieve success. Jia You!
