Ambitions

Former MemberFormer Member Posts: 1,876,323 The Mix Honorary Guru
Come up with a list of 10 things you hope to have achieved by the time you are 30. I'll do mine when I'm not at work, since one of them will be to have a job, and I don't think getting sacked is the best way to go about that.

Sorry to all you old farts on here. Maybe you could do a list of things you wanted to but failed to achieve by the time you were 30.

    I used to have a list of ambitions as long as my arm; now I'm starting to think I'd just like to live out my days on my own farm where I could produce my own food, have lots of babies and grow my hair down to my feet.

    All with my "life partner", of course. ;)

    1. Finished uni and have a job that I enjoy
    2. Remember that life is about enjoying life and not about money - and living by this
    3. Married and in love with the prospect of kids would be lovely. Wouldnt say no to my present girlfriend, but how naive am I? :p
    4. Spent a good deal of time outside of the UK. For such a small country we seem to think we're the centre of the world
    5. have my own orchard. not to make money, just maybe 20 different trees. with that, my fantasy home.
    6. changed someones life would be nice
    7. shed light on the truth of something. i dont really want to be a journalist, but im ALWAYS digging for information, and get a buzz out of finding conspiracys. only real ones though.
    8. made my mum proud
    9. starting to run out of them now... learn new skills, riding a motorbike, driving a car, everything. never want to stop learning
    10. i hope that i've learned to deal with my stress and anxiety and quite often my paranoia in a much healthier way than making myself ill (physically) with worry.

    I also had a list of ambitions which was very long for before I hit 30, but now that it's only 4 years (3.5 actually) away, well, it's much more modest:

    1) Be financially independent
    2) Live in Europe for at least a year.

    As for being married...mmmm well, I wouldn't put it past having achievied it before I'm 30 at this point.

    Oh, shut up. I'm getting fed-up of this. I don't especially mind if politicians want to earn a fortune, but I kinda resent it when they tell everyone else must live on below-inflation rises.

    I don't want to earn millions, just enough so that I have a roof over my head, food on the table and enough money to keep canoeing.
