Where do you see yourself in 10 years?

It’s ironic how our sense of dream and vision shrinks as we start to face our realistic individualities. Then as we discover our abilities, we broaden our appetite to satisfy our lifestyles. This question first struck me with a bold answer “I see myself working”. But then, I started to value the given topic 10 years and I started to envision my dreams. In order to look 10 years ahead, I had to look 10 years back to when I was only 8 years old and I remembered all of the dreams I had. I would often say “I want to be the president of Korea”. Then as I became older, my standards of my dreams started to become lower; I wanted to become a writer, artist and lawyer. When I look ahead 10 years, I see myself graduating from the Schulich BBA and then continuing my study in North Western University (Kellogg) for the MBA degree by receiving the most paramount education in fully understanding the fundamentals of business. I would fuse my interest of creative writing and art with the fundamental of business by broadening the field of commerce and marketing. Then I will return to Korea with the dreams I had when I was 8 as well as the skills and the knowledge which the Schulich and Kellogg administration will allow me to develop. I will return to my home country grown into a man with a renovated dream of my own. The shell of the name “president” will perhaps meet my destination someday, but for now I will be the ring side coach as the Korean markets compete in a worldwide stage as I stand tall as a marketing manager representing Korea’s markets.
