When all is said and done, what is your life goal?

Personally, I want to earn enough over my life to create a trust for underprivileged young lads from my community going into universities. I want them to benefit as I benefited from such a trust. I don't want it to be public, I just want them to keep my hopes for my community in their hearts and minds and to devote parts of their lives to also helping their kinsmen gain social mobility and escape poverty.

that sounds like an honourable life goal :smile: it's good to pay it forward

- Make people laugh and smile
- Leave my mark on the world, the idea that I'm a nobody scares the **** out of me x_x
- Build an orphanage, and not a mean one :3 or atleast help a lot of orphans out til they can take care of themselves.

I want to be truly happy and healthy in every aspect and I want to rescue and adopt as many animals as I can in my lifetime. I'd love to become rich enough to buy a mansion and turn it into an animal sanctuary. I'd also like to do some conservation work over in Africa :smile:
If I fail my A-levels I think I'll take a pottery course or something and then when I have a house (preferably an ecohouse) I want to either foster or adopt some kids because everyone deserves unconditional love and another chance. Love promotes healing :smile: I might never find 'the one' but you always have people to invest in, eh

Why in Africa, why not here/wherever you live?

My life long goal would be to be well respected among those I love... and make my family happy and independent.

I have already done some conservation work in my own area and plan to do more in the future but I would like to do it further afield like Africa if I ever get the chance as well.
My goal is to finish a levels, get good enough results so that I can apply to medical school, and hopefully get a place :smile: I then want to specialise in paediatrics or neurology and start a family once I have established my career. I would have 2 children and live in a rustic country house.

However, my goals are purely idealistic because;
-My motivation for a levels has plummeted, I'd much rather watch random YouTube videos.
-I've never had a bf, so how can I be considering marriage?
- I don't like children
- I don't like social interactions a great deal.

Wow, you have such a selfless life goal. Its really heartwarming haha :colondollar:

Honestly, I just kind of want to improve myself academically as much as possible. Ultimately I want to do a PhD and perhaps even attempt to innovate and pioneer some new ideas in my chosen field :daydreaming:

I'm the first of my family to go to uni, so I've kind of taken it upon myself to prove that I'm good enough to be the first.
i would love to be a university lecturer of pure mathematics or professor in it as i love maths and i love teaching people similar to my level. after all i don't want to get a degree or PhD just to teach basic indices to year 6 students! my only problem is that im still in year 12 so im a long way off and so far out of the exams ive had, my maths one was easy and my physics went awfully and although all my maths ones im confident with, all the sciences i dont think ill do well in resulting in not being able to go to uni...
but yeh, my life goal is just to learn as much maths as possible as i love it! :biggrin:

You might still get into uni if they like you in the interview :smile: that's what happened to a bunch of people I knew. If they can see you're really passionate about it (which you seem to be) I bet you'll get into uni :smile:

short term: finish my degree, then get married,a house, a couple of kids and a job i'm happy in (no particularly bothered about salary as long as the kids were clothed and fed and all bills were covered with a little bit of savings left over).

Money!!!!
I want to help people and be at peace
Give my parents an amazing, luxurious life in their old age once I'm earning after achieving my medicine degree (hopefully)
They've had a rough life and it hurts me when I think about it.
:grouphugs:
I want to be able to die happy.
To end up as a very well-loved and respectable woman, how I will go about achieving that is still in question.
