Alright, so if i'm going to change my life i'm going to need to set some goals. So these are my goals. These are the things that I want to accomplish. Some I hope to accomplish in the near future and some of them are long term. Hopefully some day though, i can reach all of them.
My Personal Goals
Receive a PhD. -
My original goal was to graduate college again. But why settle for just graduating again? Why not take it a step further? Now my new goal that i'm going to strive for as hard as i can will be to graduate a PhD.
Survive the hot wing challenges -
Now this goal may be never ending because there are so many hot wing challenges around the country. But i want to find them all and at least try to complete them.
Build a car -
I've always loved old cars, and i've always wanted to fix one up. I don't really know a thing about cars, but i would love to learn how to restore one.
Lose 30 lbs. -
My original goal was 20 lbs. Fortunately, i'm already half way there. I'm down to about 205 and i've been working out for about a month. I'd like to lose at least an extra 10. 20 would be good, but i'd be okay with keeping some weight on as muscle mass.
Build a robot -
I'm not talking about some super hi tech bot, just something simple. Its something that me and my dad are hoping to do together. I just need to do some more research.
Write a book -
I love to read and i love to write. Right after college I started writing a novel, but i never finished it. Hopefully some day i will be able to.
Record a cd -
I'm not looking to break into the music business and get rich and famous. I'm just looking to write some songs, some music that means something to me and record it. Put on cd, or mp3, or whatever format we are using in the future.
Play in a band -
This is something that i've been trying to do since high school. I kinda got away from it for a while, but i'm not giving up on it. Again, i'm not trying to make it big or be a rock star, i just want to play on stage for a crowd.
Overcome my fear of flying -
When i was about 5, i saw the movie la bamba. It was the story of richie valens, a teenage rockstar. Unfortunately his career was cut short when he was killed in a plane crash. Now i know he wasn't flying in a big jet, but in a little prop engine plane, but since then, i've been scared of flying. I want to conquer that fear.
Beat Super Mario Bros. 3, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, and Legend of Zelda -
I know this sounds kinda funny and childish, but these are three of the greatest games ever created for the Nintendo Entertainment System. I have never beaten them, but hopefully some day, I will (without using any cheats, codes, or walkthrough's).
Now i have many more goals than this, but a lot of these goals i would love to accomplish with my wife. These will be listed a little bit later under family goals. As i think of more i will add them to my list.
