Dreams and goals are two different things

How do you plan your goals?

Daily Prompt

As it happens, we talked about dreams and goals on the last day of the filmmaking course. Listening to my classmates’ goals, I felt like a pirate on land. My goals aren’t anything cool. I wish I could be brave and do something about it, but I’m stuck in a moment. If I was younger, I could start all over again. I feel like a loser compared to my classmates. They weren’t interested in me anyway. Maybe I’m a boring person or something. They were friendly to me, but only a ship passed by. Or a pirate ship, arrr. I was sad when they didn’t even ask if I wanted to accompany them after the day. I wouldn’t have gone anyway, but it would have been nice to be asked. They probably wouldn’t even hear me or even care. I won’t see them again, so it’s bygone.

My goal wasn’t to get into the movie business. It was only something I was interested in. Education is never wrong. Getting into a film school is too complicated. I don’t want to study for several years. Maybe the diploma is not a big deal for others, but I’m glad I went. Dreams and goals are two different things. I don’t plan goals too far ahead because my mind is indecisive. Big goals have never come true, so I have small goals. It won’t dream big either for the same reasons. This filmmaking diploma is a completed goal. I finished all the assignments on time, and I took part in every school day. Here’s another feather in my pirate hat.

Diploma

My next goal begins in October when I start an education about digital marketing. I hope to find something else to do too, but that’s uncertain. I don’t feel optimistic about getting a job. Even internships are hard to find. No one is looking for one, it seems. My goals and dreams are dashed once again. But you manage somehow because you’ll be wasting your life if you give up. If people gave up their dreams and goals, many things wouldn’t happen. You need to keep the faith.

Professions to be desired

What profession do you admire most and why?

Daily writing prompt

Many professions are essential because if no one doesn’t clean or take care of the elderly, for example, nothing would be done. I admire a lot of professions, people who save lives and even garbage people. They do a job I could never do. I get anxious when I see people in pain, and I don’t like touching people. I’m not made to do a profession like that. I admire people who do those jobs, though.

A profession I admire the most is actors and actresses. Acting is a tough job. They can play roles where they need to do things I could never do, like doing love scenes and such. They also need to be brave, and I admire people that are. It doesn’t need to be in a profession. Actors and actresses can play different kinds of people. They can play other characters and try different jobs without going to school to become them. Becoming an actor is also quite tricky. They don’t give up; even if they struggle, they won’t give up their dream. They might need a talisman if they want to be successful. It’s a competitive business, and not everyone will become big stars. Actors and actresses aren’t fairly treated in recent years, with being paid relatively and getting compensation from streaming services. They’re also afraid of getting replaced by Artificial intelligence. That’s why the strike is going on at the moment. In my opinion, actors and actresses won’t be replaced by AI because acting still needs to be done by real people. Watching movies and TV series wouldn’t be the same as now. Humans should never be replaced by robots in any profession.

Jobs to do for day

What’s a job you would like to do for just one day?

Words that came up when I thought about what I wanted to be were; pro photographer. Especially a Formula One photographer. I was a big fan of it for about 13 years. My interests have changed since then. I realised it would take years to become a pro. I didn’t want to wait that long. If there is a job I would like to be for one day, it would be a Formula One photographer. Doing sports photography isn’t easy, though. They are fast and trying to capture it; you must know how to photograph them, and I don’t.

Another job I would like to try for one day is to be on a movie set. I wouldn’t mind what job it would be. I would like to try several ones. It would be nice to follow personal assistant to actors. I wouldn’t want to do the job except if it is to keep the company of an actor or actress. But I don’t think there is a job like that. I study filmmaking, but it won’t get me a career in the movie industry. But it’s an exciting subject, which is why I am learning it.

It would be nice to try to be something I have studied for, but getting job experience in the graphic design field is under a rock. I would do it full-time and not only for a day. I guess I must live in a dream world because reality doesn’t want me to be in it.
