  • I see nothing wrong with wanting to be a dental assistant, and making decent money is a good thing if you want to buy things.

    Having high ambitions is good, but so is having realistic aspirations.

    Regarding the first thing you wrote, I would to dispute that anyone can do anything. In a lot of societies, it is possible for a person to acquire great wealth, power, recognition or fame, and, in that sense, it is true that one person can do anything.
    I do think, however, that it is not possible for everybody to do that. We can't all be doctors, scientists and lawyers.
