Hopefully, you didn’t have to dream of becoming a dentist for 50 years before realizing your career aspirations.

Hermey the Elf is a beloved character from the 1964 classic television special "Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer." He dreamed about becoming a dentist for more than 50 years! Hermey encountered some resistance, some prejudices, some doubts and challenges along the way.
