Isn't if amazing that no matter how well any one person becomes at doing any one thing that person
dreams of doing something else.
|
  |
Perhaps it is human nature or a sociological state of mind or just from being smacked upside the
head by an uncle when a person was young but you can be sure that even experts in fields of
knowledge and service harbor thoughts of doing other things.
|
  |
Some things take years to perfect if one cares to be good at that specific thing, so why would a
person spend years learning one thing only to dream of doing something else? A recent study may
reveal the answer.
|
  |
In groups of tens, researchers asked certain professionals the following question: "Could you all
sit down in an orderly fashion."
|
  |
Then, researchers gave the professionals a questionnaire. Doctors, lawyers and notary publics were
asked to respond to the following inquiries:
|
  |
1.   When you are most satisfied with your work in your profession, do you have second thoughts
about starving children who live in cities too poor for words? If you do have second thoughts,
describe your first thoughts.
|
  |
2.   When someone asks a question that only a person in your profession can answer, do you
fantasize you are Johnny Depp's butler?
|
  |
3.   Do you admire any male celebrity sports figure that is seen in public with a gorgeous
woman and immediately...
|
  |
4.   How often do you urinate?
|
  |
5.   Do you watch poker tournaments on cable TV in the middle of the night and wonder how
people dressed so badly can afford to play pots worth thousands of dollars and then spend the rest
of the evening in your closet crying?
|
  |
6.   If you had a male chauffer, would he be from a country where the game Monopoly was banned
or would you hire twin girls with strikingly different IQs?
|
  |
7.   As a child, did your mother fall on her head? Did she fall on your head?
