Are you going to go to college or are you stuck in low paying jobs that are not exactly fulfilling? How old are you? What are your goals and dreams for your future? How likely are you to attain those goals and dreams?

My goal now is not simple at all: it is to move to US and grow as an inmigrand and become someone in cinema world... People usually say I'm crazy and it is impossible, but we'll see, anyways I feel I have to do this.

At least you dare to dream. Those who tell you it is impossible are those without dreams of their own.

My goal in life now is simple, just to be healthy and happy, I once had a dream and it came true so I am happy with that so now all there is, is to be happy.

That is good, as long as you are living your dream that is real cool! But you have to set new goals and dreams.

I pretty much left behind the "striving" and "ambition" game around my 40th birthday... I realized that I found myself being "successful" in a six-figure income job only because the world and my family had persuaded me that this is what one "should" do with one's life. Actually, I was horribly unhappy, and surrounded by people mooching off my efforts. So I quit and now work as a free-lance writer... taking an 80% pay cut in the process. And I've come to understand (at least for ME) that "stuff" and "status" doesn't amount to squat... "people" and "love" DO. My goals these days are to live a simple, peaceful, compassionate and loving life. If I can-- in some small way-- leave the world a better place for my having been here, then it was a worthwhile life. If I can somehow change even ONE person's life in a better direction, then it was a worthwhile life. I attain those goals and dreams pretty much every day... because I choose to LIVE them. Good topic!

First of all im college going and am not carrying any financial burden right now...my parents still take care of me..lol...My Goals and Dreams are usually very idealistic..Like leading a disciplined life,being a good communicator,Good public speaker etc...So I know that attaining these near perfect goals is impossible in this life and i never worry about being not perfect...I only try to better my life every time...
