    I disagree.

    I think that once you hit around 20, you should have an idea of where you want to go. It doesn't have to be a permanent plan, it just has to be a plan. And the earlier, the better. Plans change, and goals evolve, and sometimes life takes you in a different direction. But you should have goals, always.

    I am a student and part-time photographer right now. Once I graduate, I will become a full time wedding and portrait photographer. In 5 year's time, I want to open up my own studio space. By the time I am 30, I want to move away from portrait work and head into commercial photography work. Also around this time, I want to become a mommy.

    By the time I'm 35, I want to have opened up the first of my multiple restaurants. I already have a venue in mind for my first venture. A little stand in Los Angeles' historic farmer's market would be perfect.

    By the time I'm 40, I want to be an established photographer with my work having been printed in national publications. Around this time, I want to start weaning myself away from full-time photography work and do stuff more on a project to project basis. While I'm transitioning more toward part-time, I want to take care of my restaurants and try and get one or two food related franchises going.

    I want to be retired and completely financially secure by the time I'm 50 so that I can take the time to travel the world.

    So yeah, that's pretty much the plan! Let's see how closely I can stick to it. I'll check back in, in 30 years to tell y'all how it went.
    I feel inspired whenever I read your life plans. :3

    I wish I had big plans like that. I used to, but I've kind of resigned to the fact that I'll just be an average teacher. xD I do wish I could do some art on the side though...

    Jobwise, I'd like to land in the area Interaction Designer (anything from developing web sites or games to designing actual products), but I'm happy as long as it isn't a job that torments me for 40 years just so I can live my remaining 20 in a decent manner.

    Lifewise, the single goal I have is to enjoy myself, for example by travelling and exploring new places, or just by relaxing with a good meal and a nice red wine to some good music.

    That sounds fantastic. Good luck with that!

    I've always said that I want to be a pyramid.

    Now I just want to be happy. Or was it hippy?

    I'm not really happy with what I am right now.

    I'm aiming for a job where I work with electricity though. (electrician, technician, etc.)

    If I move out to Hollywood or somewhere, I think that'll be my starter job of choice.

    I'm right now studying Computer Engineering. So you know, hopefully something with that.

    I seriously spent a lot of time during my office job today refreshing the Auckland Zoo position description for Elephant Keeper and hoping that I was suddenly the perfect candidate.

    Unhappy

    I attended an introduction to veterinary skills workshop almost exactly ten years ago and learnt that I was far too squeamish to earn qualifications in doctor dolittlism.
