He works long hours, is constantly stressed, and has little time for his wife and family. Corey would love to work as a professional painter and photographer, but he feels this dream would be too impractical. Furthermore, he is concerned if he quits his job and pursues his passion, he will put himself and his family into financial jeopardy. They currently have a mortgage, and Corey is also working to put money into his children’s college fund and into his retirement. His wife is also a working professional, but feels Corey’s dream of wanting to be a professional artist is unrealistic and would hurt his chances to become president at his company. She does not want him to change his career at this time.
