Today, G. Ripley discusses three to four people that changed their mind on one career and pursued another challenging endeavor instead. In this post, the stories of a young Harvard MD; an NYU graduate that is a comedic hit on SNL; and an academy award nominated actor from 'the office' tv show are disclosed. The first vignette involves Michael Crichton, the renowned best selling author who received his BA from Harvard Univ. in 1964. Five years later, Michael Crichton graduated from Harvard Medical School. Yet, he did not pursue a career as a medical doctor as he published 'the Terminal Man' and 'The Andromeda Strain' in 1969. A fair amount of Michael Crichton's books like Jurassic Park; Rising Sun; and Disclosure became box office movie hits, and these successful flicks garnered critical acclaim for the brilliant MC. In this subsequent paragraph, the Saturday night Live actor named Bowen Yang is the main topic. Bowen Yang was a pre-medical student at New York University initially. Then, comedy became his main passion to pursue. During his college years in NYU and beyond, he found time to perfect his comedic routine. Since 2018, Bowen joined Saturday Night Live as a member of the writers staff and worked his way to become a successful comedic actor on SNL and in hit movies including 'The Lost City (2022) and The Garfield Movie (2024). This multi-taltented arts performer is an alumnus of NYU dept. of chemistry. In this tertiary act, 'The Office' was a hit tv show on NBC from March 2004 to May 2013. The comedic show's eccentric and strikingly beautiful cast included Steve Carell; Rainn Wilson; Jenna Fischer; John Krasinksi; Melora Hardin; Mindy Kaling plus other aesthetic Hollywood actor/actresses. Steve Carell received an academy award nomination for best actor for 'Foxcatcher' movie in 2015, yet he lost in the Oscars (87th Academy Awards). Steve Carell graduated from Denison University in Granville, Ohio. He did not pursue a law degree, as he could not finish the personal essay section of the LSAT (law school admissions test). At some point, Steve is thanking his lucky stars for pursuing 'the 40 year old virgin.' This movie plus 'Crazy, Stupid Love' and 'Anchorman' showed the filmmaking world; that he is known for his hilarious acting in successful comedic flicks. In this penultimate paragraph, the readers will see that pursuing another endeavor is taking another risk that can change someone's life in a beautiful manner. Matthew Damon is my final character in this fourth act that took a writing and acting chance, with his friend and business partner Ben Affleck; to produce 'Good Will Hunting' in December 1997. Affleck has two academy awards and Damon has one, which they both received in 1998 Academy Awards for Best Original Screenplay for 'Good Will Hunting.' Since 2022, Matt Damon and Ben Affleck launched Artists Equity, a successful production company. G. ripley exhorts everyone to see the 'Air' movie from 2023, regarding Michael Jordan's first shoe contract with Nike. In July 2005, G. ripley met his beautiful siren, Laura; to have dinner and drinks at The Continental. Matt Damon did not graduate from Harvard Univ., as he was less than 10 credits away from graduation. Damon and Affleck's restaurant, the Continental in Beverly Hills; was a great place for food plus drink and ambience. In closing, pursue your passion and dream big in life. Who you can meet and the mentors that guide you will help you to pursue a hopeful career in medicine; engineering; law; acting; and the theatrical and writing arts. Bill Gates; Lawrence Ellison; Matthew McConaughey; Abhijit Talwalkar; and Eric Schmidt are my personal role models who can help humans to achieve the impossible. In less than three months, make the right choice to vote in the USA. Vote for Kamala Harris and Tim Walz to change America to attain the promising future; for young successful minds to grow and prosper. G. Ripley hopes all readers will enjoy the picture of Vice President Kamala Harris and Minnesota Governor Tim Walz. Good day; Good night; and good luck to the Global world!
