In my early childhood I wanted to be a farmer. But as I grew up, I realized that physical work was not my passion. So I ended up in a local group and finally made it in the startup world.

@ixord cool, that you already knew it from a early age on. Which person inspired you to go this path?
Igor Lysenko
@marvin_maendle I think my best motivation at that moment was life, and helping to help people.

@rjcruz yes and some surgeries are so long. Must be such a high pressure for hours while saving someones life!

My first ever dream was to be a part time back-up dancer and also a flight surgeon. But I think the little girl in me always had a thing for tech and right now I'm on the road to building my dreams :)

@ashley_from_shadow back-up dancer is a cool one. You can still do it on the weekends. Nice that you are on the journey to build your dream! Good luck

@zignis nice one. Won't be a good one for me too, when you nee maths. Hated it in school :D
Gaurav
@marvin_maendle its mostly because of the teacher. i like maths as a subject but my maths teacher was never nice to me. bad teachers can make you hate anything, and ruin your interests.

Dentist
My dream job was to become a dentist in Bridge St. I was fascinated by the idea of helping people maintain their oral health and ensuring their smiles were bright and healthy. This aspiration stemmed from a desire to make a positive impact on others' well-being.

@shariii cool. Good that you can help so many people day by day. I think you need sometimes a good stomach, but when you are used to it, it probably doesn't matter.
