I have no goals
I don’t mean that I have no sporting equipment (although that is also true), but I have no “lifegoals” or “big dreams” or anything. I know I ranted a week or so ago about how I hated being asked about such things on job applications, but I’ve been trying to think what my “goals” could be, and I can’t think of anything.
I know most people have the “wife+kids+house” goal, but to me that seems like an impossible goal. I might as well plan to live on Mars, be a gazillionaire and invent the cures for cancer, aids and world hunger. To me each of the things in the last few sentences seems equally unlikely – well…. maybe I could buy a house.
Then there are career type goals, but seeing that I have no job, and no idea what I’ll be doing, I also have no career goals. I know I’m supposed to have the goal of rejoining SL at some point, but I really don’t want to. I know it is a good thing to do intellectually, but my emotions don’t really want to be put through all the horrors of support raising again.
So, no goals to speak of…. which I’m sure isn’t good. No goals = Nothing to aim at = No motivation = Nothing happening.
Just have short-term goals. Long-term ones will probably end up in tatters anyway.
