I don't really have a set goal right now, the only thing I'm planning for is investing and setting aside money for the future, so I could become a traveller for a year or two when I'm older in the 2020's, It'll cost 50 grand, but it'll be amazing, the route I've made goes from places like London, Cape Town, Mexico City, the list goes on.


I'm not to sure about what I want as a job though... I wouldn't mind doing archaeology, or stuff like that since its a combination of my best performing subjects, History and Geography, I've always thought of publishing some of my stories and seeing if I could possibly break through one day, but due to my paranoia I doubt that'll ever happen.

Anyway what is Your main ambition in life? What have You always had in the back of Your mind as a thing You'd love to have or do?

I've never had a long term goal, I've never really been settled enough to have one.

Hi, my 7 yr old daughter is an Aspie as was my husband (he's deceased. Took his own life in 2011 due to a life long of not being dx'd and depression. ) and I often wonder what she'll want to be when she grows up! She too has a special interest in dinosaur bones and digging them up. She also LOVES LOVES animals and has said that she'd like to be a vet. My husband didn't really ever express any one job that he wanted or had ever wanted. He just was a really hard working guy as he wanted to provide really well for his family.

Write a book, make it successful, move to Chicago, start a band, make music and my next two books at the same time, move to Canada eventually, taking the band with me, have the books made into a movie series. Hope to have the book published in late 2015 0r 2016. I have shorter term goals for this year and next year, but I can't go into detail about them.

I have a simple goal to get back into the workforce and make my $800 a month. I've been unemployed for 16 months and I'd love to be working again. I also have another goal to invest in crude rich, which is a premium gold.

I never really had a long term goal. The goals I did have were related to me getting in a relationship just wanting a relationship due to being extremely lonely or wanting one with a specic celebertity/idol i had a mega huge crush on. I'm in a relationship now not with my ex crush which would be extremely unlikely but I love my girlfreind & she's aLOT more perfect for me & I'm too focused on her & our relationship & stuff to really worry about making a goal for myself.

My goals have nothing to do with financial success or notoriety. They never have been, even though my life is in its last quarter. My goal remains to be a good person and not to hurt other living beings. Simple goals achieved by living a simple life, without being a simpleton. Though if someone were to refer to me at my age I would see it as complimentary.

Zen Master would refer to that as wisdom.

To attain some kind of peace or satisfaction, without leaving a trail of misery in my wake.

Form a well respected hard rock band, win a demolition derby and car race. Once those are completed I come up with something else like maybe something to do with airplanes?

I am a realist so I like to keep my goals fairly short and attainable, I have no idea how long I will live and what kind of resources I will have in the feature.

In the past, I'd say become a rock star. I used to play guitar and write songs. Unfortunately, a lifetime of drug abuse came calling and derailed me. I write fiction now so I'm slowly picking up the pieces.

My goal these days is to get lots of sleep. Actually, it's to try socializing more, maybe go out to meetup groups, AA meetings, etc.

I choose the actor. I observe NT's. I listen to their socializing. I practice it, so in social situations I can just emulate/mimic what is expected.
It isn't natural for me, but it enables me to "fit in".
It is VERY tiring and draining, but at least we can appear like them even though it is an act. Like being on the stage.
They can't see it is emulation, and so we are accepted.
