Historically it was common for people to do what their parents did. If your parents were farmers or blacksmiths or royalty, you could quite reasonably expect a similar life.
As the Industrial Revolution advanced, new job opportunities opened up. Some people moved to cities and tried new things.
Today the opportunities to do different things is ever greater. And the more traditional jobs of many parents are eschewed.
However, sometimes we will do things because our parents wanted to do them and they we’re unable to do them for various reasons. Be mindful of this when making your own way. Don’t live the life your parents wanted. Reflect on what you want to do, what works with your values and also consider the outcomes you want 20 years from now.
You can achieve anything if you wrap your mind around it.
