life goals/ambitions

[johnlambert]

Have you got any ambitions in life? have you fulfilled them or are you still waiting? If you havn't done them yet, what's stopping you?
when i was younger I had 3 ambitions,
1) see the place where Jesus was born
2) walk the Great wall of China
3) climb mount Kilimajaro (the highest mountain in Africa)
In 2005 I went on a tour of the Holy Land and visited Bethlehem (amongst other holy places) Last year my wife and I went on holiday to the Far East where I walked on the great wall Im hoping to climb Kilimanjaro for charity in the next couple of years (before im 50 so I,ve got 4 years left) Have you got any unfulfilled ambitions ? have you fulfilled them or are you still waiting? If you havn't done them yet, what's stopping you?

I've never had unrealistic aspirations, but I still haven't got round to achieving any of them! Mine are to;

1) Own my own business one day
2) Do a parachute jump (un-aided)
3) Run a children's charity

I've also wanted to obtain a degree one day, but that's not on my list because it's more of a personal thing to keep studying subjects I enjoy and as long as I keep studying then the qualification doesn't really matter at the end of the day. Plus i've already started that ambition. :o)

I haven't achieved the others yet. But I will.

Great question John,
To be happy all the time - Im getting better.
Degree - done.
Great Wall - not yet as no one seems to want to do this with me....
Go to the Caribbean - done.
Have kids - not yet need to find the right man first.
Complete the London Marathon - still training, slowly getting there, due to studies and lack of sunshine on the weekends.
