What do you want to DO with your lives?

Solarball10

Couple of questions:

1)are you in your dream job at the moment? if not, are you going to do anything about it?
2)what hopes, dreams, and aspirations do you have?

I'm stuck in a rut...i have no idea what I wanna do (careers-wise.) It sucks! I like dealing with people...doing reception work at the mo, but I don't wanna be stuck doing that all my life...even though I enjoy it, but there's not much room for progression..

Other hopes/dreams are I wanna travel more, have a family, ermmmmm...and just be happy i guess!

I have a great job but it's just not fulfilling. I've signed up to be shipped off to help the poor people, I'm just waiting on the results of the interview to see how I get on.

Ultimately I have this dream about becoming a politician and changing the world.

Couple of answers
1)not dream job but close to and could turn into it in a few months (by being made permanint)
2)My hopes are simple, I hope my child has a happy and fulfilled life and i hope the same for both myself and my partner
My dreams are to spend as much time living and loving as i can
I would like to aspirer to a more calmer and happier person

I'm happy where I am, work wise. Although I am going around the world on a 1 year trip in January meaning I have to give it up. Hope I can get my job back when I return.

Tough decision, but at 26 if I don't do it now I never will.

Fajitas!

1)Yes, albeit part time, but only part time because I'm also studying my dream course.

2)Publish a few more books, get a few more high end jobs, open up my own studio, bit more fame wouldn't go astray either - Though the only reason most of those haven't happened is because I want to pick up a piece of fancy paper that says Fine Art Degree on it first.

The job I have now is not the one I expected to have, but it is in my primary field of interest and in fact a much better position than I would originally have anticipated. In short, I love my work

Regards goals in life, that's a tricky one for me, I definitely didn't plan to wind up where I am now, but it's going great, so I'm keeping an open mind about the future.

This is gonna be the most boring post but I have a great job and am in a very good place at the moment. Just want things to stay this way for a few years.

1) Well I'm still in college. The job prospects are certainly lucrative but I'd more interested in classical studies or something actually interesting.

2) Nice house, relatively comfortable life (via getting a job in the field which I'm studying please God). And of course the trophy wife and two kids. And a nice collection of cars. That's the main thing. Whenever I picture all these things I imagine myself in America for some reason

1)I assume you dont mean footballer or austronaught, so Yes, but I'm quitting in January to go travelling for 18 months. May or may not get it back.
2)I assume you mean in terms of a career? To own my own company and to make a difference. But also to be happy and to not to prostitute (not literally!) myself just to make more money.

I'm not in my dream job, but I don't know what my dream job is anyway. I like my job, have only been in it six months and still learning so much. I'd be happy to potter on like this for a few years anyway, just enjoying life.

I wanna get to the end of it without dying

Im enjoying my job and happy with life but if you are thinking about your hopes and dreams then you must need more out of life than just a good job.

I want to get a thousand posts before Christmas then come the new year I can happily die with my life's work complete

1)I am in a good job for my age and a nice income to match, but I regret not doing something involving history as I loved it in school and still love it now. I am a bit skeptical about next year in the business I am involved in(mortgages) as a reccession is on the cards. So dunno what the future holds TBH.

2)Hmm, Denise Richards in a hot bath? Winning the Euro Millions would be acceptable.

Live, love and travel without restraint.

I have it split into present and long-term:

1. Keep a steady part-time job to see me through college (rent,food,nights out)
2. Finish my course with the best results I can (4 yrs - product design)

3. Find myself an internship with a design company - work on my own ideas

4. Get started on the property ladder

Ireland (short term) and Austria (long term)

5. Travel around - at least 3 yrs out, at some stage, to see as much as I can

6. Start a family (mid 30's)

7. Retire early (mid 40's)

That's the plan at its most basic

Well all I got to say to you is time again I say, "No!"
No! No, No, No, No, No!
Tell me not to play
Well, all I got to say to you when you tell me not to play,
I say, "No!"
No! No, No, No, No, No!
So, if you ask me why I like the way I play it
There's only one thing I can say to you

I have this plan to drink as many different kinds of beer as possible. I also plan to live in Belgium to aid in the completion of this exact target.

Seriously lads though, really reckon love in all its glory, be it filial, parental, platonic, romantic or otherwise has to be the most important thing.

Everything else can be replaced or overcome.

1) Dream job? Not quite but close. I work as a Medical Writer and really enjoy it...perhaps because there's lots of room for progression, the money is great and I've recently progressed fairly majorly in the job

2) My biggest aspiration is to be a successful published author. I'd love to make my living from writing books and of course if I made an extremely good living from that I'd be very happy.

What am I doing about it? I'm currently writing a book. Is it any good? Don't know yet but the plot outline is exciting and what I've written so far is passable but it's early days yet. I've a long, long way to go.

The only way to live a dream is by actually doing something about it.

I used to be a milkman. That was a great job, coz of the "perks".

I also used to be a security guard, which was a great job coz of the sheer lack of work I used to do.

Oh, working in a factory ruled too, coz there was usually a scrap every week. Quality entertainment.

I want to be a drummer in a wedding band. We also do barmitzvas.

1) Don't have a dream job. Any job I have been in was one that was there to fulfil 8 hours a day of work for money just to pay the bills. I have no aspirations to be rich, nor will I ever be.

2)I want to be fulfilled but don't know how. Haha, I guess I have very few aspirations-I have done little with my life so far. Thanks for opening a can of worms, OP!

snickerpuss

1) I want to do too many things. I'm not sure if that's good or bad.
I'd love to study more art history or work in an arts/design related field.I wouldn't say no to primary school teaching. I do love writing though and something in that field might be interesting. I also love what I do now, which is look after disabled people but I'm not qualified to do it.
Really I'd like a decent paying job where I get to be a tad creative and use my brain. I love working with people now but I don't know if I could stick it forever.

2) I just want to be happy. Whatever that may involve. I'm quite happy now, studying art history still and I may as well enjoy it since it might be my last year doing it.

No, I don't have a job. No.

2)what hopes, dreams, and aspirations do you have?

Gonna apply to the fire service after college. My computer science and history degree will be put to great use. Failing that, probably the Gardaí.

My dream is to be an indie radio presenter and play lots of forgotten rock gems, and to write music articles... about forgotten rock gems.

I'm a receptionist.

I've no long term plan. Lifes far, far too short to be constantly thinking down the road.

I'm in a job at the moment which I'm happy in and make quite a lot of money at, it's not my dream job but it's quite close to being something I'd actually quite like to do on a more permanent basis.
I intend on finishing college, to at least have a degree to fall back on, and then I want to travel, see different cultures, countries etc.
Considering I could be hit by a car and killed tomorrow, I don't really care where I'll be in 10 years right now, but if life goes the way it seems to be going, it should be something good.

I've always wanted to make the perfect cup of tea. I'm also determined to solve the riddle of the dissappearing poo, you know the massive one that makes a big splash and totally vanishes like a diving whale. Except they never surface.
