Alright, my kind of topic! Here're a few shadow dreams I had in the past, and was able to achieve:
Make video games
Teach (ya, sounds like an odd dream, but it was a dream, and I was able to do it, and I loved it : )
Start a company (two of them, turns out starting them is the easy part! lol)
Meet the love of my life
And my current ones that I'm working on:
Marry my lady and create and raise some wonderful kids
Turn my companies from spending money generators to mortgage paying ventures
Achieve financial independence
Create a teacherless learning environment that can teach anything to anyone
Create artificial life (yea, I'm cool)
When it comes to dreams, I have a favorite saying: "I don't have dreams, I have goals!" And I really think that Nike had the best advice of all when they said "Just Do It", in my life, that seems to be the key to achieving my goals.
