Has anyone asked you those questions? No? It's probably cause many people today don't know what they want to be and they're grown up. Somehow society has given us this ideology that a figure income over five is the only way to be successful. Many adults today are living in jobs because they are too afraid to do what they are called to do. And I don't mean called in terms of religion. I mean that hobby that the "world" only sees as a hobby, where you could spend all day just doing it without any worry or care. We have been fixed into jobs that actually hold our system together are not acceptable, yet complain when someone who sees it as an opportunity "takes" it. We must follow our calling, that gut feeling of what we are meant to do, not told to do. The great thing about it is that most of us are not meant to do just one thing, so it gives us endless possibilities. If you love to sing, become that singer, do background vocal, work on jingles, do anything ( that does not effect your essence) to take you where you want to be, surround yourself with like minded people to keep your head up. The reason I write this is for too long I've seen people, extraordinary people with talent and ambition, wasted, because of what someone told them they can't be, or what they can't do. Dreams have been vanquished because of people have given up. Please do not give up, do not drive your self to poverty in achieving your goal (hence given more that one talent), but always strive to at the level that you want to achieve.
Also, remember that no job is too below you. I was talking to colleagues at a career fair about seeing some of the careers listed, like waiter, custodian, and clown. I decided to hold my tongue back because I did not want to argue (especially with the person giving me a ride). I wanted to state that, who says that being any of those jobs are unacceptable in life? You many not live the life of a counterpart but who says that they are not successful. My grandfather told me success is being able to provide for a family and to have sense of security. I believe that is true as long, as you are able to take care of yourself and anyone who is dependent on you with out worrying about how you're gonna pay the next bill or see that your child when sick is taken care can be deemed successful. Money, car, clothes are only material things and can come and go as they please, but being there and providing love and care are more valuable than anything else.
