I think it’s more a matter of accepting that age X doesn’t = being infirm, and spinning it that way. It’s not like I’m the sort of person who longs to buy a camper and travel the country.
Well, I’m working on the dream of sustaining myself through writing, but I know there is a long way ahead. I also think I don’t work hard enough, which I try to change. How come there are no dreams for you?
Dreams don’t work for me. Only Desires and Aims.
You are writing well enough.
Well you said you are dreaming of sustaining yourself. What is your goal in writing. For what you want to go a long way.
I think you wanna be the best blogger ever??? Right?? Respond

Not necessarily blogger, but a great author since I’ve also written a book and I’m currently working on my second one 🙂

Superb… Can you post your contents of the book… The first one…. Just asking….
I feel the same. I’d like to be a missionary that helps people with learning how to farm, take care of themselves, and make their village prosper. Heck, some towns where I live in Michigan don’t even know how to do that but they don’t listen to anyone, nor care, for that matter.
For sure! My family excels at being creative, so I’ve tried pretty much everything in that aspect. I think the first step would be to actually buy a house, but I’m torn because where I live now (Kansas City) isn’t necessarily where I want to stay the rest of my life or even the next 10 years.

The only dream that is left is to care for a dog. I love my dog so much that I waived this dream.
Thank you. It took hard work, sacrifice, and a realization that no amount of willing something to occur will make it so. I had to come to grips with the fact that I had to start my career over at 35 years of age, bust my ass to make a living within my newly chosen field, and then, as Nike so eloquently puts it, “Just do it!” There’s a long road ahead, but it is 100% worth it for something I love so much.
Yes
He is the most brilliant person that ever lived within our century (to me at least)
His vision was legendary. But unfortunately, he did not receive the recognition he deserved. Hopefully his idea “The Venus Project” will become reality, sometime in the near future.
Graceful retirement. Given the economy here, I don’t see it happening.
Things are tough. Maybe they require a different approach…

No Dreams… What about you??
😢

Moving into a townhouse with my friends…well, making actual steps to it I guess…hmmm…HAHAHA I feel like you, @Liz
It’s awesome if you’re actually making steps towards it. Maybe one day you’ll get there! 😀
Making the world a better place than when I entered it, by the time I leave it.

How come you consider you haven’t started working on that yet?
Race around the Nurgurgring in an AMG Mercedes. – All I want before I go.
What would be the first step towards achieving that?
Trying my hand at real estate ownership. Everything else I’ve pretty much tried out. Pretty good for a 32-year old!
Congratulations for trying other things out! What would be the next (or first) step in trying your hand real estate ownership?
For sure! My family excels at being creative, so I’ve tried pretty much everything in that aspect. I think the first step would be to actually buy a house, but I’m torn because where I live now (Kansas City) isn’t necessarily where I want to stay the rest of my life or even the next 10 years.

Nice! For how long do you have your dog?
Making an Artificial Intelligence
Very interesting! Do you want to actually write the code or you want to be in charge of the project?
I’d like to be in charge of the project mostly.. But then coding it lowkey…. Some components tho
Starting a social entrepreneur incubator space in west Africa.
That sounds very interesting! How come you haven’t started working on that dream yet?
Good questions. Battle between certain ways of monthly money making and risk taking. Perhaps I’m not yet ready?
Or the dreams are not strong enough to help you overcome every obstacle, including fear?
Maybe.
I feel more like I need to prepare to leave a fix job with certain about of savings before jumping into the unknown, and uncertainty (financial wise).
*amount of savings
My dreams are the huge secret. They will stop being a secret when they in my life experience. 😊😊😊🌟🌟🌟
I hope they are not secret for you!
Writing a book of poetry
What is stopping you from doing it?
None. I have already started my book, I’m working on a screenplay, and I am now a father. Looking to do my best with all three!
Congratulations! I’m so happy you sorted things out for yourself! I’m sure much more awesomeness is on its way!
Thank you. It took hard work, sacrifice, and a realization that no amount of willing something to occur will make it so.

Writing a book. THERE, I said it!
Very nice! What would you like that book to be about?
Visit Jack Fresco’s laboratory
I just watched some videos with him and he was a brilliant man! I’m shocked about how much wisdom he can communicate using words!
Yes
He is the most brilliant person that ever lived within our century (to me at least)
His vision was legendary. But unfortunately, he did not receive the recognition he deserved. Hopefully his idea “The Venus Project” will become reality, sometime in the near future.
I want to own a food truck/restaurant.
Awesome! I assume you like cooking, right?
LOVE IT!!!
To be financially independent…completely.
What would it take for this to happen?
It’d take a series of bestsellers, and lots of income streams beyond my 9-5
