    this is an interesting question.

    quite often when you are at one end of your life, looking forward, trying to imagine when you get to the other end and look back, it is not what you thought it would be.

    I want to share my knowledge and experiences with others and learn what I can from them, before eventually opening up my own hardcore gym, of which there are none in my area. I just want to live comfortably (financially) and improve myself to be the best I can, and eventually have a family.

    Short term goals are to finish working on our new/remodel house and enjoy it more.

    Long term is to retire in Philippines before I'm to old or health wont let me enjoy it properly.

    Desire is to have a relationship that is for the most part drama free. I dont know if it's possible though unless I stay single.

    Future direction is to keep doing what I'm doing for employment, make a little more and dont do anything to stupid to get in trouble.

    I always have a positive outlook at life, even when sh*t hits the fan (far to often) I dont every seem to think/feel the future is any less full of positives.

    My goals are pretty simple..

    I'm just simply hoping to save enough money so that I can quit my job and enjoy life. And sooner rather than later. I don't know about you guys, but I hate my job with a passion. And then I was figuring, if I got in to another racket, it'd be more of the same. The money might be better or worse, but I'd hate it the same. Unfortunately, nobody is going to pay me money to go workout all day long and I can't make enough money playing guitar and giving lessons to survive in a lifestyle I am accustomed to, so I get to tough it out.

    Desires? I guess to have a family someday. But the problem with that is putting up with the old lady's bullshit (or her putting up with mine). Maybe I'll find that right girl someday. In the meantime, I'll just keep hitting any piece of tail that rolls my way.

    Direction? I really wouldn't know how to answer that. I'm that type of person that no matter what I'm doing, I get all caught up in it where I can't just do it and be fine with that. I have to be the best at it or I'm angry with myself. It doesn't matter if it's playing guitar, lifting weights, playing video games or my shit job. Something inside of me doesn't allow me to be okay with just "good enough." To the point where if I have nobody to compete with, I'm competing against myself from the day before. So that should give you an idea of what direction I'm headed in life.

    As far as an outlook on life goes. I want to have a positive outlook, but I tend to be too angry and worried about things to just let them go and be positive. Which is kind of against the character I portray to people I'm interacting with. To them, I'm always trying to crack jokes and act like I don't take things too seriously, but the whole time, I am.

    Goals: To maintain sobriety. Without that I really can't see my life going on if I keep slipping.

    Desires: To be happy with what I'm doing. Don't care if I was a trash man. If that gave me happiness in the purest form then I found my calling. I spent my teens trying to impress others and be someone else. I am only now realizing who I truly am.

    Direction: I really don't know. Just finally got around to achieving my first goal in the last few years.

    Outlook: To appreciate the life that has been given. I know I've been ungrateful and there are those on this planet that prove to be more useful than me with less resources. As long as I am at peace with myself and others it should be a pretty positive future waiting for me.

    My goal is to get out of the North American rat race life style and move to Thailand for the winters and come back and work a bit in the summers. I would love to just stay there, but kids and family in Canada would make it difficult to be away full time. I have started to change my work pace, try to work 30 hours a week instead of 40+, the wife doesn't like it, but tough. After visiting Asia this past Feb, I have been having a tough time dealing with our way of life here. I will never be able to retire here, so I would like to at least semi retire and get out of the winters.

    I told my daughter if she wants to see me she can come visit (Philippines). Wife only wants to live/stay there part time. I told her that's fine, she can come back here (US) to work and Ill stay there to take care of things.

    I thought I'd grow up to be a NHL all-star in the winter and spring and a rock star in the summer. I should've just aimed for being a motorcycle dude.

    When I was around 18 - 19 I always thought I would always be attracted to girls the age I was dating then.

    Hey what do you know? Some dreams do come true.

    I think a better goal is not to get caught.

    Desires: keep dating hot young chicks for the most part.....id like to get a hair transplant, hop on gear again(legal here), and some other things....don't know if I wanna go back to the states after my work here is completed...



    Goals: realistically....I'd like to make 20-30 million dollars, and retire by 40 years old. Considerably less money if I were to stay in country, but much more if I decide to return home.



    Future direction: Thats a tough one, current skill set doesn't really equate to many jobs with stock options and the ability to earn a substantial amount of wealth...I see myself going it alone in a business.

    Long term out look of your life: all of the aforementioned...

    I think right now, my goals are to remain healthy and strong in the long term. Partially out of financial necessity. We all know most of our retirements will not be that of our parents. I'm going to need to work into my old age. Plus I didn't start having kids until my 30's, so I need to be healthy/strong enough to be around to watch my future grandkids grow up

    Funny how goals change as we change..........

    You know what I want?

    To have tattoos on my shoulders, be an actress and drive a bike. Since my husband is vehemently against all of it, I decided to become a figure competitor.

    I am no fat-chick thriller, I just am a little more honest than most guys. I see it like this, I don't care who you are or how good your game is, nobody is hitting home-runs every time they come to the plate. Sometimes, you have to do the less glorious thing and lean in to a pitch just to get on base and subsequently score.

    And most guys won't admit this, but at 1am, you've not secured that 10 for the night, but you see a fat 1-2 out there. She's drunk and horny and you think to yourself "fvck it" and then you take that mammoth home for an Animal Planet style fvcking. You probably will lie to your buddies the next day about it and she goes from whale to swimsuit model in your retelling of the story.

    But nobody except those fvcks with the sick fetishes desire that. We just lower our standards so that we can score.

    I won't take a whale home...... I like a girl with a small waist and big ass. Not fat and sloppy.
