When I was young and sitting in school, our teacher asked us what we want to become when we grew up. You know this question right? Most children have a creative imagination. So I heard many things: I want to be a lawyer, I want to be a princess, I want to be a doctor, I want to be a fireman, I want to be a pilot, I want to be a footballer and much more.
And becoming a professional football/soccer player was not me who said it. :D
You know what I wanted to become? But don't laugh ok?
As I was young, I wanted to become a train driver :D
You know what fascinated me about that, or what gave me the inspiration?
One day I was traveling with my parents to Paris, and we were driving with the Thalys train.
I will never forget this moment where this epic, win red train drove into the train station. For me, it was an epic moment this train was so majestic in my eyes, and the dream to drive one day this train was born.
But the answers to the question above has changed for many kids. I will not say totally changed there are still occupations which are still trendy like being a lawyer or a doctor for example.
But today there are kids who want to become Youtubers!
Something that is not accepted as a real profession in our country. But we all now that many people are making a living from youtube. And its a matter of time until this will be accepted from the society as a profession worth working for. I believe that. The World is changing.
But do you know what profession after that will be profoundly wished from kids?
Being a Steemian!
If the development of this social media platform based on the blockchain continues to be positive, I think this will be something young children want to become.
Do you want to know more about that, why I think so? I will explain it a bit more in detail so make sure to stay tuned.
Yes, you are right! Also, many talented people are attracted to the blockchain space. Just one example: Bitdegree had an ICO and will be offering course on cryptography. Revenge of the nerds some might say?
Yes could be like with the dot com bubble!
Just woke now and saw your post my buddy!!! ...I think that blck chain jobs will be top in the nearest future due to successes in the segment. I however, love jobs with great work life balance ...work hard play hard culture is my thing...wish you success (I have you already in my steem voter, so expect my upvote). More success. Elyte.io is hiring..see my post for link to their telegram
Good points!
I want to be a steemian!
You are already :)
But you will be later a huge Steemian. ;)
I hope so!
Es gibt ein recht gutes Buch von Gerald Hörhan, dem Investment Punk - der stille Raub - darin wird die ganze Zeit auf die digitale Revolution und die Veränderung eingegangen. Ich kann es dir nur empfehlen :-)
Btw - ich hab es nun per Mail versucht, wenn du deine FB Nachrichten nicht liest :-) Ist aber keine Fanmail :-P
Das hört sich spannend an.
Werde mal einen Blick drauf werfen.
Tatsächich^^
Ich dachte, wenn es dringend gewesen wäre hättest du mich auch über den Steemit Chat kontaktiert.
Da nicht möglich?
Also auf Steemitchat hab ich dich nicht gefunden :-)
Ich bin dort auf jeden Fall. @modernpastor
Future will be truly amazing for sure lots of new jobs will be created and some of them will be shocking to all of us :D
I agree we are in for a treat!
Wow like the insight.... the the wholesale idea of which career is for me has eluded me till. Now ...may be that I never knew what my future looked liked.... When growing up . Iguess I can't complain if present career has a small success 😁thanks for posting
Thanks for reading and leaving this friendly comment :)
lol when I was a kid I said I wanted to be an astronaut. Still true to this day! I would give it all to blast off in one of those space ships! If I was told you can have 10 million $$$ or go to space, I'm choosing the rocket.
This is a true passion, really true passion. :)
Are you trying to make it happen at least for one time? Maybe with some spaceship from Elon Musk? XD
Well certainly kids back then are no longer the kinda kids we have now, see the tides changed, and just as you were fascinated by that train a lot of things fascinates kids these days. It's like having my son say he wants to be a crypto trader
And the really serious ones goes on to make it big.
Awesome stuff here brother.
Really? Your son wants to become already a crypto trader. Wow, that's awesome that he has this kind of thinking. Thanks for leaving this exciting comment.
Certainly brother and you have an amazing blog here keep up the good work
Very good... #ThumbsUp
That's for sure
It will happen in the 2 to 3 years
If anyone has any Entrepreneur skills they will succeed in life
Yes, I see it the same way :)
I believe your vision. Steemit would soon become a thing everyone wants to be part of. Nice post bro
Pls kindly flw back as i have followed. Thanks
Lol..and this would happen sometime,
I honestly believe that.
Idols change over time. And with idols, dream jobs change as well.
I may not agree with all youtube, IG, ... -stars regarding their content - But if people like their content, they deserve to be paid like other entertainers.
A few weeks ago I heard the little eight-year old brother of a friend say something beautiful regarding this job: "When I am older, I want to be an influencer - Because than you can show other people what you like to do!"
I don't want to debate about the real meaning of influence or anything - but it's just beautiful how honest he was here. Nothing about money on the mind of that little boy - Just getting to do what he wants to do.
I think that could serve as message to many people here. Just share what you love and be authentic - There will for sure be other people who feel kind of the same and will support you.
Same in soccer bro :)
I think it's every area.
There are some players i think :"How can he be there? What he is playing I play with closed eyes!"
Some fans even think more extreme, what we see every weekend.
I also don't agree with all youtubers, but because I am not the target person for that kind of topic.
But the honesty of that little boy is exemplary. And I agree with you. Share what you love and be authentic, because you will do it also when you are facing hard times. It's like fuel which boosts us forward :)
You have achieved a much greater goal, this is an occasion to be proud of.
Stimian will soon be the desired professionalism based on kinship with others, the desire to help others, share their best thoughts, and create what will change people's minds - that would be excellent.
And given that there is Dtube and a lot of progressing directions and opportunities, we will soon conquer the world :)
thank you, as always you gave the rules of thought
I like that; soon we will conquer the world. Amazing. :)
I want to see that happen.
World is changing to virtual !!! Scary isn't it ?
It is a bit :)
Nice post! I follow you!
I think you are right on the money ! How nice of a life style wouldn't that be ? Hehe
It would indeed!
I always love your articles @modernpastor! I smiled when I read that you wanted to be a train driver. :)
And I agree kids nowadays want to earn easy money because of what they usually see on YouTube, the earnings that You Tube sensations get especially those kids who's getting million views in a day. And now my daughter who's 10 years old is now a Steemian! Yes, she is and is excited posting and monitors her upvotes, because she is one of those kids who wants to be a YouTuber! :) Steemit is the next big thing for youngsters!
Woooow your daughter is already here :) how great is that!
Mother and daughter on the same platform. My son is still too young for that but maybe one day he will also be here :)
Thanks for your kind words.
You're always welcome @modernpastor! :)
I became what I wished for as a child but traveling the world and blogging about it seems like something worth pursuing in the future :)
I see it the same way :)
Great post friend...
World is changing, that's for sure.
I believe that the classic jobs like today won't exist in that quantity in the future..
The focus will more be on independence. Maybe more on freelancing.
Who is innovative, open for new technologies, creative and so on has the best chances.
Learning programming can definitely be an advantage!
At the moment I don't think for myself, that I will have 'THE ONE JOB in the future.
Instead a try to build more income streams which are more or less independent.
I'm excited what will happen!
Awesome my friend :)
Yes, I think also that people are going more in the direction of different income streams than focusing only on one.
Yea, programmers are new rockstars!
I totally agree, this platform is really outstanding and I think with time and at this rate of growth, this is what young kids will look up to as a profession.
Yes, this could really be :)
Awesome did you ever get to ride that train? Thanks For Sharing!! I hope you have a WONDERFUL DAY!
Sadly not my friend :( I hope that one day I can drive it. At least for one day :d
You should add another term to the wish list: DTuber. ;)
My friend, you know what? :D
I will do it. i have mad em thoughts and I will make soon also some videos ^^
Awesome. let's all become DTubers :D
Du bist richtig überzeugt davon ne :D?
Woher kommt diese eigentlich?
Ganz einfach: Ich habe letzte Woche mehr verdient als im gesamten Jahr vorher zusammen.
Und das nur durch Videos auf Dtube? Hääääää?
Hast du dafür eine rationale Erklärung^^?
Utopian zuerst, dann DTube und großzügige Whales. Außerdem habe ich davor unter der Armutsgrenze gelebt.
As the world is day changing so are the minds of the youngsters. Am probably too old to change my profession now... #sad
Nice post...
I want to be a successful Steemians and become a Bighwhale someday . Thank You @modernpastor . its good to have a dream I'l try to ask this with my two children when im home
New technology creates a lot of opportunity like steemit :D Not only this platform in future there will be a lots of opportunity :D
