What would you do if you weren’t in your current industry?

We know: freelancing is the dream gig! But just for fun, if you weren’t working in your current field, what other career path could you see yourself pursuing?

Ha! If only that could pay the bills. 😅

Teaching literature and philosophy. 

I have been studying both since my childhood and I once ran an international facebook group known as 'literature, philosophy, and rationalism'. It's still there on facebook but I no longer manage it. 

I believe that I could be a great teacher at college level where my students know what do I teach and what does that mean to everyone in their lives.

OMG! What a cool fun fact about you. That would be an exciting and rewarding path for sure.

P.s. I also studied English Literature so we are twins in that regard. 🙌

Great to know that. I didn't take English literature as one of my subjects in college/university. My master's degree is psychology. However, I have been studying (personally) philosophy and literature. I specifically studied eastern, Japanese literature along with English literature. My mother tongue is Pashto and our national language is Urdu so I studied those literature as well. In addition, due to my love for the Persian language and their rich literature, philosophy, and traditional values, I tried that as well. 

You'll be amazed to know that the famous topic of existentialism was greatly explored by a Persian unknown philosopher named as Mullah Sadra who lived hundreds of years before Jean Paul Sartre, Nietzsche etc.

I will try to learn a new skill

[mark_sgp]

Something in the medical field - medical doctor or some sort of Ph.D. level research.

My undergrad degree is in biology, but during the dot-com boom of the 1990s, I got my MBA in management science/MIS and went into IT consulting...rarely touching the healthcare industry again except for the occasional client of Big 4 (then Big 6) firms. Haven't looked back very often...my decision to go into IT took me on a very different and unexpected road for my career, and life in general - in a very positive way.

I never knew that! Thanks for that cool history fact!🤗  You're so well-rounded and it's impressive the amount of languages/cultures you are well-versed in.

 Funny how life works out! Maybe in another life you'll find yourself in medical IT. 🤔

Ah thanks for the appreciation. Please sing my praises a little louder, xD. 

Well, to brag about things, I speak seven languages.

If I'm not in this industry, I might be in the mobile and computer selling and assembling business. I am also going to enter this industry soon, choosing it because I always like to be my own boss. I don't know why, but I really don't like to work under someone.

Woah! You don't run across someone who knows how to assemble computers on a regular basis. Such a cool and unique skill to have!
