The craziest dream I’ve ever had was to go to college and become the next great American novelist. What stopped that dream from happening was having kids, a husband with a motorcycle fetish, and my parents decision that food, clothing, and paying bills was a little more important.

My biggest challenge in finding the energy to accomplish my goals is simply that I don’t eat right. I cook great meals for my family, then I sneak away and eat junk food, or just munch the whole time I’m making dinner. As for motivation, I’ve been a writer for years, just never made it to college. However, sitting in a little corner by yourself gets boring, and I end up getting depressed. I have to actually leave my house, go down to the coffee shop, and intermingle with real people. Then I feel as though I can finish whatever I’m working on.

I always wanted to spread happiness and wanted to be known as a famous Stress Management Consultant. But my problems at the personal front, whether monetary or loss of key family member in the family always stopped me. Now i have lost that enthusiasm n charisma, i dont know but i feel this way.And loss of family member has disturbed me emotionally.

I’ve always wanted to be a car racing driver. Still do. Even just for one rally season would be awesome. The main block has been money, of course. As soon as I can afford it I will go to a serious race driving course abroad.

I’m quite energetic and self motivated. However, I could improve by quitting smoking. I have reduced it to a minimum, but I don’t think I’m ready to quit.

My craziest dream – A complete control and responsibility over my life (my actions and relationsips). Leading a purposeful and meaningful life.

What stopped me – Personal problems coming from the past(related to upbringing etc). Absence of a meaningful guide on how to lead my life. Now I believe I am doing well in changing my life.
