Why I can't sleep
Do you ever worry that life is going to pass you by? That one day you'll wake up old and have achieved very little in your life?
I've never been one who believes in destiny, I've always thought you make your own future. So if we have no preordained future, what if you never figure it out, the meaning of your life. What if you never take any chances and you always do what you must, not what you want. I'm trying not to be a slave to my possessions, but it's one step forward and two steps back.
I'm plagued by dreams of a life filled with a passion for what I do, or who I am. But I don't know what that is. I hope I don't work it out too late.

I think some people live a life about long term goals and some people live a life about what their goal is next week or today, or in the next hour.
I think I live somewhere in the medium to long term goal world and it gives me happiness to reach those and I usually do. It's difficult and you cop a lot of shit sometimes but that's what gives me joy and accomplishment.
Lately I've started to set myself more short term goals but I don't think this is working to my strengths. Changing to be what I see as more normal isn't what works for me.
Maybe for you it isn't so much about working out what your goal/s are or should be but what sort of person you are first. Then when you have that down you'll be better prepared to set your goals.
Maybe you just won't be a goal driven person ? Maybe you're trying to be like everyone else. I just think the question of "What are my goals" should be pre-empted by some other more easily answered questions :)
Do you really want to be a member of the rat race ;)
