Forum :: Lounge :: Life Ambitions

I'll keep this question short and sweet.

Ignoring any of the limitations you think that you face. Education. Finances. LIving Circumstances. Put them all aside and tell us what you would do with your life and career. What is the single highest ambition of your life?

Also, if you pursue it, what are your plans to make it happen?

I often say it, but i'd like to be a corporate CEO. Working out of New York. I don't know what my business focus would be, too early to tell. It could be a small startup or a large business, i've often wanted the chance to lead and succeed, as much as I enjoy being part of a team, i've never been a follower.

Would be nice to be remembered after i'm gone as well (which is hopefully not for a very long time), having achieved or created something that strikes a chord with humanity.

How I intend to do it? I gamble. I bet on what I believe will be winners and roll with the punches when it comes to losses. I'd love to move to the Big Apple, and i'm working hard (40 hours a week, soon to possibly increase), saving every cent I get to put towards those goals. I've considered studying further than my current formal education, but have never been willing to fall into line with University life as for every student I know that shows promise, another ten are clueless when it comes to the real world. So i'll go with the flow, bet on the decisions I consider winners, make the right connections, seize the right opportunities and make things happen my own way.

Without limitations?

1. Jump out of a plane.

2. Kill a ninja, hopefully whilst doing (1).

3. Write a book about it.

How do I plan on accomplishing these? I'll improvise if the opportunity ever happens to arrive, otherwise I'll just bide my time. I'll get what I want one way or another >:D

This is a perfect example of cum hoc ergo propter hoc.

Just because most university students are clueless doesn't mean the University causes that...

Yes, but it doesn't mean that University can shape an already under-performing mind into one of greatness either. I haven't focused in four years of education. My entire life is a continuous pursuit of self improvement and further education.

I  would take a backbag, and take few important stuff and start go around the world to the different contries, that is my dream, yet pretty hard to do.

Maybe not, but in most cases an educated under-performing person gets further than a uneducated one.

Well if education, and financial things didn't matter I would peruse either the music industry or artwork, but since those things do actually matter, I'll probably just do them on the side of my real career.

Yep.

I'm gonna be famous.

I stand by what I said. I don't believe that an under-performing mind can be shaped to greatness by any single University. They do tend to go further though. Unfortunately that's the problem with corporations these days, well educated but under-performing executives.

Same here. o-o No matter what, I'm gonna be famous. Like, if I have to resort to anything, I'm going to to be famous.

Mine are simple... Forget the past move forward, get a job at the casino work nights well going to college for a year to get my GPA an transfer to a better tech school. 

How I'm going to reach these goals have yet to fall into place but I'm working on them, I've learned to talk to people about the past an get over it, I'm applying like crazy for the casino with people backing me who work there... an next semester i should start college... exciting.
