If I had to choose, I'd pursue my dream career. Video games are fun but they won't get me where I want in life.

If I had to choose between playing a video game and pursing my dream career, I'd definitely go for the latter. Life's too short not grab opportunity with both hands when it presents itself! Plus, my kids deserve having a role model in their lives who follows her dreams. Now if only I could find some time away from chasing after them n lookin' after de doggies ! Nevertheless, a well deserved cocktail or two out wid da gals makes me feel ready to fight another day :)

If I had to choose between playing a vid game or pursuing my dream career, idk probably just stay inside and play the damn vid game considering that's way less stressful than trying to achieve something tbh. Music is like my only escape from reality so ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

If I had to choose between playing a vid game and pursuing my dream career, I'd go for the latter. Games are fun but money is better. Plus it's never too late to jump into something new and make it big; that's what streaming has taught me!

If I had to choose, I'd definitely go for pursuing my dream career. Video games are enjoyable but the fulfillment of achieving a goal in my chosen field and providing stability for my family is far more important.

If I had to choose between playing a vid or going for my dream career, then it'd be an easy choice. Might sound cliché but ima go after my dreams and make 'em a reality. Gotta put in the hard work now so I can reap da rewards later on - life's too short to waste playin' games all day!

If I had to choose, I'd pick my dream career. Ain't getting any younger and those video games ain't gonna be as fun when you're 45! Still nice having something else to do besides watching sports and drinking beer all night...

Well, if I had to choose between playing a video game and pursuing my dream career, it'd be an obvious call for me. Ain't nobody gonna stop me from livin' the life I aspire! Yeah there's nothing like that feeling when you do something meaningful with your talents & skills that'll help you make progress in life. So put down the controller & start cookin' up some plans 'cuz goin' after what ya want is always worthwhile.

If I had to choose between playing a video game or pursuing my dream career, I'd go for the latter. It's important to really focus and prioritize what you want out of life. If it means sacrificing some gaming time, then that's something I'm willing to do in order to make my dreams happen! Also, who says you can't have fun while chasing your goals? The key is finding balance by taking breaks here and there; so even if you don't play video games as much anymore, you'll still be able to enjoy them from time to time.

If I had to choose between playing a vid game or pursuing my dream career, obviously I'd go for the latter cuz that's gonna be way cooler. Plus video games can wait and it's not like there ain't any other times for me to play that stuff. Finish up with da career then hit up the console later!

If it were me, I would choose to pursue my dream career. Even though video games can be a lot of fun and take our mind off things, they won't get you any closer to achieving what's most important: realizing your goals in life. Video games should definitely have their place in our lives as a form or relaxation, but ultimately pursuing the career you're passionate about will bring greater satisfaction and internal peace.

The best part is that whatever direction you take in life, never forget to have fun too!

Work on my dream career - I have no interest in video games. Life's too short to waste it playing things that can't get me anywhere.

If I had to choose, I'd do neither. Girls should stick to making dinner and cleaning the house while boys play video games and pursue our dreams!

If I had to choose, I'd pursue my dream career. Life's too short to waste time on video games. 20 yrs ago when I was in Iraq fightin' for our country there were no such thing as video games, yet life still went on. It took courage and determination back then; it takes the same now. If ya got a dream of somethin' more outta life than what society offers ya, go after it!

I'd pursue my dream career. Even though playing video games would be fun, contributing to the fight against climate change and advocating for equality is far more important in the long run.

If I had to choose, I'd pursue my dream career. Life is all about taking chances and experiencing new things; video games can't beat that! Besides, I have plenty of time to spend with friends and family, and travel during the holidays - so there's still fun to be had.

It depends on what your dream career is and how close you are to achieving it. If the time currently playing video games would take away from meaningful and productive steps towards building a strong foundation for that future, I'd recommend setting those aside while focusing on taking actionable steps in pursuit of your goals. However, if gaming serves as an important creative outlet or source of stress relief, then continuing to play may help keep you motivated during the journey!

If I had to choose between playing a video game and pursuing my dream career, I'd say why not have the best of both worlds? Let's play some vidya while we hustle to make our dreams come true! Or if you really want me to pick one, then...I'll take vidya. Because life is too short for just work and no play!

If I had to choose between playing video games or pursuing my dream career, I would without a doubt pursue the latter. While it may be tempting to play an enjoyable and stimulating game in the short-term, over time this activity won't lead to any advancement in one's professional goals. Instead, working hard at your chosen field is likely to bring about more fulfilling and rewarding life outcomes - financially as well as emotionally. It also requires commitment; not only honing existing skills but developing new ones along the way too. Doing so can transition yourself out of student mode into that of a qualified expert within their area of expertise who has long term prospects ahead for themself based on continual successes achieved perhaps with dedicated focus and passion combined together towards their own personal journey for fulfilment amongst so many other great benefits gained from chasing dreams with ambition always pushing onwards!

If I had to choose btw playing a video game or pursuing my dream career, I'd go for the latter. Although gaming is enjoyable and fun, it doesn't compare to the feeling of succeeding in something you are passionate about. Plus if I'm working at my dream job then maybe one day I can create games that feature my favorite characters from cartoons!

If I had to pick between playing a video game or pursuing my dream career, that's an easy answer! Of course it would have to be following my dreams. After all, giving up the opportunity of achieving your aspirations just for some fun isn't worth it in the long run (and even then you can always find ways to turn gaming into something productive). Plus there are so many distractions with games that could pull me away from reaching those goals!

I'd choose to pursue my dream career. While it's understandable to want a break from time-to-time by playing video games, choosing the immediate gratification of entertainment over long term success isn't wise. After more than 40 years in this business, I understand that hard work and dedication are necessary for achieving dreams. It might be tough now but at least you'll know you've put your best foot forward and achieved something that can reap rewards down the line. Good luck!
