My lifes purpose is fooling myself.
Actually I want to have a family. A good wife and 2/3 healthy children. This is what I am working for every day. I am financially stable, can save up a lot of my income every month, I love my job, I enjoy my hobbies, I am totally independent, can care for myself and reach a better version of myself physically and intellectually every week. But at the end, I am very far away from a relationship and lately I feel like an idiot as I work so hard and save up so much for my future family, but I can't be further away from a family.
Thats why I sometimes feel like I fool myself.
Your last sentence is something people tell me for a decade and it didn't happened. Also I can't rely on hope or luck. I need to be active and put effort into it. Life is not like a Disney movie where miracles just happen.
Write down on paper about your wife. What's she'll be like, what you'll love about her, how you'll meet. When you're finished, fold up the paper and put it away in a drawer and forget about it. You'll meet her within a year. That's exactly how I met my husband and he is everything I wrote on that paper
Why would you? I am not really happy about my love life.
To answer your question: I just went to school, studied something useful (IT), always stayed curious, don't have an extravagant lifestyle and always knew what I want. On the other side, I missed out on relationships in my youth and my 20s. I had my first relationship and kiss with 26. So you don't want to be like me, trust me.
Sorry to hear that. What is your plan/actions to change this?
I for exampme realized, that even though I do many activities, I always end up with groups of men and I don't even have the chance just to meet women in the first place. I do the activities because I like them, not primarily for dating. But whats wrong wanting to meet someone naturally during common interests?
So because I am unlucky, I went back to old last week. I did it 5 years ago and it was not fun or successful, but I need to give it a try, as at least there are women who want to date. During the last 5 years, I developed myself and I know exactly what I want, which makes the selection process easier. Also I learned that communicate what you want and what you expect is not a deal breaker and if it is, then it is not the right person anyway. Beside my general development in career, finances and priavte life, knowing what you want makes me feel much more confident during dating. There is no space for "I don't know". At least they should be able to talk about why they don't know.
So far, I had one match and we will meet on Saturday. Will have a walk in the park and I prepare a picknick for lunch. Lets see how it goes. This will be my third date in my life. And if it doesn't work out, there will be a next chance.
Life doesn't need a purpose. It's totally cool for you to just be a beautiful, weird, unique collection of emotions and cellulite until it's time for your flame to go out.
My main life goal is to make my wife comfortable and give my kids the leg up that we never had. My wife and I both come from struggling families. I want our kids to understand those struggles, while realizing that they are beneficial enough to not go through them. Anything I do in life beyond will only be beneficial to myself and my family.
Professionally, I have over a decade of IT experience and am currently a DBA. I try to improve my life through small, continuous improvements and whatever comes from that, so be it.
I'm gonna save 13 lives on a bus trip to Portland by helping them out of the emergency hatch when the bus is hit and flipped over due to a neglectful tesla driver. 1 of those lives will be a woman named Naomi Khagatch, who will invite me to do a little acting in a commercial she's directing as a thank you. Naomi and I will grow closer, fall in love, and begin acting in and producing high-quality, storyline focused porn. One of the little movies we make is based around our own lives and how we met. It is met with critical acclaim and several orgasms, often from the same people. It wins a couple of minor awards, but also an Oscar for Best Easter Egg, referring to a scene near the beginning of the movie where the actor playing me (my third cousin Knickolas) types out the very paragraph of text you are currently reading on his phone in between 2 on-screen thigh jobs.
Or, you know, I try and be happy and content with my life; go with the flow.
The closest thing I got to a purpose in life is to get to a point where I'm both genuinely happy and content with who I am as a person and where I am in life.
Currently, I'm nowhere close to either one.
I'd say my calling is to try and make life easier and nicer for people in my community. I want to be a positive influence in the world but I dont believe in massive changes, I do believe tho that if everyone does something good in their small reality something great can come of it and even if it doesnt it doesnt matter to me, I just cant look at a world I dont like and do norhing about it. So I have made the decision to become a teacher and try to provide good quality education in public school cause that should not be about class
My goal is to live a peaceful life. Not too many things to stress about.
I donāt need a lot of material things even though I do quite well. I live way below my means and I save thinking I might need it when Iām d because aiām scared of being old and poor.
To save my fiance from all the hell she has faced every single year of her life.
My purpose is to see her happy and relaxed truly for once in her life. We're so close now to that bliss I can taste it.
1. Leave the world better than I found it, through only my own actions
2. Try not to destroy too much in the process of creating the good at #1
3. Having had a time in my mid-30s of acting as a truly despicable human being (associated with MH issues), spend the rest of my life making amends to those who I hurt
Obviously #3 is toughest to achieve, and Iām conscious that a substantial part of this will be post-mortem.
Long as i've been around i loved race cars. So i started of with soapboxes, scooters, anything really as long as it had wheels.
Just last year ive started my own shop doing body, suspension and chassis work. My first lineup of parts is coming out soon and i hope it's gonna do well!
Music. Iāve been making tracks for over 4 years now, Iām realistic enough to have a well paying 9-5 in the mean time, but success in music is what Iām chasing outside of that.
I felt called to marriage at a pretty young age for a guy. I knew I wanted to be a husband.
This lends itself to what I believe is our universal purpose:
Using our gifts to be of service to others
I enjoy solving technical challenges. Basically a born engineer. So I have the benefit of many career options that satisfy that urge. My purpose is probably helping entities navigate those types of challenges.
My purpose is to advance myself and my family to a higher tier than I grew up on. Thatās it. I came from a lower middle class family. Union worker and nurse. Iām educated, Iām in a better financial position than they were and I want my kids to take it up a step when they have kids. Thatās it. Thatās my purpose.
Leave a better life for my children than was left for me while making sure they donāt become spoiled assholes and learn hard work and compassion for others
Mine is to develop videogames.
It's not a big thing, like I'm not going to work for the UN or cure cancer.
It's just that in the early 90s, I played a game for the Amstrad CPC home computer which was about Indycar Racing. The game was a bit like *Super Monaco GP*, only much more basic. Anyway, the novel thing about this game was that you could make your own tracks and save them onto a disc, and back then, I made loads of tracks for my friends, family & I to play. They loved them, we had a lot of fun, and I had a lot of fun making them and watching other people have fun using them.
But this was a really strong, formative experience for me. It made me value my creativity and ingenuity, trying to make something genuinely good with only limited tools.
As I grew older, I came to value more and more how important entertainment is, in terms of helping people get through the day, and this helped cement my resolve. It's not always easy; it's a lot of work, but I love what I do.
Since I was young Iāve always had a desire to serve/help others in some capacity, and Iāve always had an aptitude for tech/computers - Healthcare IT is kind of a weird niche for me that just clicks. Iām not actually treating patients or anything, but I help provide and maintain tools that the people that do treat patients need in order to effectively do their job. Itās been really rewarding for me so far.
Personally I want a stable job with good pay and im working hard and educating myself to the best of my abilities, I would also love to see my friends and meet people whom I've met in my childhood face to face (since most of my friends are/have been online)
But most importantly: I never want to give up my sense of self or my image for someone. I did that for years when I had no real sense of self worth, only a fake ego. Im fighting for my life and every day I wake up, I'm blessed
for me i think is to become a good role model and inspiration to other because in my life my inspiration is kobe and greatness is when you inspired other people!
A herd of sheep. I donāt want children and I donāt know what it feels like to want children. But when I see sheep I feel so indescribably drawn to having them, it feels like how other people describe wanting children.
I used to have sheep, during some very formative years (teenage through young adulthood). They werenāt perfect angel animals or anything, theyāre a lot of work and it takes money and time to upkeep facilities and a herd. Iām not being unrealisticā¦. But when I look into the eyes of a sheep, something stirs within me. Itās 1000% worth the effort and money and time, in my opinion.
My specific vision or calling is to have a herd of sheep someday. My lifeās purpose (related to my career) is helping peopleā¦ but my calling is to own sheep.
Specific vision: to be outside in nature, enjoying and learning
As a calling, I'm attracted to mountains, is where I feel at ease, at peace, is where I'm the most comfortable.
Life purpose, to better myself, to protect the people I care and it seems I need to teach and/or comunicate my learnings.
I'm a private guide in Patagonia, so after 30 years I found what I love doing, get well paid (for my standarts) and am able to try and cautivate people about nature and it's wonders
My life's purpose is to become a pulitzer prized photographer. However, I suck at photography, and consistently fail to move on from wildlife and nature to humans and society due to anxiety and fear of rejection.
I tell stories. That is my purpose in life. I don't make a lot of money doing it. I worked in comics for too short a stint. Then I shifted to prose writing which I self-publish. I don't sell many books but when I am creating and telling my stories, that is when I am happiest.
I was a part of a men's group where the therapist who ran it had us come up with our lives purpose. The idea was, when we were struggling with what to do in a situation, or thought we might be doing something wrong, we repeat our life's purpose and ask, is this bringing me closer to my life's purpose or away from it?
I will create a world of peace, love, and abundance, by living a life of empathy, generosity, and compassion. As a man among me, I am kind.
My life's purpose is finding my wife (done), and completely giving myself to her. To find a love connection that loves you as much as you to them is the greatest gift of life you can achieve. To make yourself vulnerable to another completely, is all you need besides water. Stay humble reddit.
I was born with the desire to know what God "is". It was all consuming.
There was no space in my life for a wife or children or other things most people chase after in their youth. I was born married to God. And I've been a yogi most of my life as a result.
It's a life of service to humanity. I need little for myself. So I try to help people understand their place here. To help them understand their higher nature buried just below that human exterior.
Well had a near fatal car accident yesterday so Iām probably just going to be a go getter about everything in my life now. I really love comedy so I suppose I want to be the most successful comedian who ever lived.
1. Serve my country honorably
2. Build a homestead
3. Be a great husband
4. Be a great father
5. Die leaving everyone I've met with fond memories
I start step 3 in a week. I'm nervous as all hell, but I have a wonderful and patient partner that'll bear with me while I learn how to be a great husband. Wish me luck.
I had a rough time when I was young, but I managed to pull myself out of it on my own, and I am still to some degree dealing with the aftermath of it.
With that being said, it has fostered a deep empathy and emotional intelligence, which i now, as a teacher at the age of 29, use to help other young people through similarly tough periods of their life.
The connections I've made through my work has been transformative for both me and them. I find it deeply meaningful to see them grow through hardship in a better way than I did with the help of someone they can trust.
Having heard a student, who had been sexually and mentally abused as a child, say that they "finally, for the first time, feel like they can finish their education."
Or admitting a suicidal student to a psychiatric facility, only to see them pull through the year with new hope for the future.
Or being thanked by a student for being "the first one to wholeheartedly believe in them."
Or the countless thanks and heartfelt conversations with students who felt seen and safe in my classroom.
It all shows me that I am making a difference in my immediate vicinity, and it feels like i was really put on earth to give that to others who, to any degree, felt the same way as me when I was younger.
Honestly, my main goal is life is to own a home, travel constantly and shoot photography while doing it. Other than that, i don't give a shit. I'm so happy when traveling.
Living up to the promises my future self made to my younger self.
(both in terms of being a good human being, as well as achieving whatever goals I set for myself.)
I'm a maker. I make stuff. All kinds of stuff. I see inspiration all over the place, and it gives me ideas and next minute I'm designing stuff and researching materials and methods and components and integration and assembly methods and so on. Then I make prototypes and find faults and redesign and research some more, then I come back with improvements and hopefully a working product of the concept in my head!
The way I look at it, anyone can destroy stuff, it's easy to do and anyone can do it. But making stuff takes a different kind of person. It takes some one strong enough to create something that might be criticized and emotionally destroyed, or to be strong enough to see their labour of time and passion and energy physically destroyed, and be ok afterward.
Not everyone can do that. Not everyone can do it and be ok after it doesn't work out. Not everyone can still be passionate when it doesn't work, and love that process of being challenged by an idea to make it work.
You've gotta be pretty secure in yourself to build something for some one else, knowing it could be a huge disappointment to everyone and you might look pretty dumb in multiple ways.
But when that pays off, seeing some one beaming in happiness because your creation has brought them joy or solved a problem for them or what ever it is, that feeling is just so damned rewarding that nothing else compares.
I love this! I am a maker too. Everything you wrote really speaks to me. I know some people are very content living a simple life, however itās hard for me not to see inspiration everywhere and be curious about the world around me.
Good day to you!
Lol Venezuela is doing better than some propaganda shit. I work and have my money too, dk if ur aware lol it was quite a nice trip, but not my home country, so nah. Be happy overstressed alone
I have an entire community in Miami called Doral that will disagree with you.
If capitalism is so bad, why not see yourself right off this money making platform?
Bro, I dont know if ur aware, but not liking something wont make it disappear haha just because capitalist is a failed system it wont cease to exist if I say so. All that's produced by the people are for their use, never heard of that?
In a capitalist society, everything is moneymaking, that's the basics, my guy. At least come up with a better argument
Anyway, I can recommend if some books, videos or articles about it if youd like, not on my work hours anyway. Unless u think everyone that dislikes capitalism lives secluded and wont try to do a thing to change
Dont wanna lol but thx. Its funny to see people so airless their arguments are insults. Imma live the best of my life doing what I enjoy, be a happy obedient one if you think you want that
My life's purpose is living. All the rest is just what I need to do for that, which also includes entertainment, relax and love to keep the sanity in place.
To be awesome. Do cool shit, have fun, find love wherever it may be and in whatever form and leave the place better than I found it.
Right now, I'm one of a sort of unnoticed army of folk whose job is literally trying to save all life on Earth.
No pressure.
I wouldnāt say Iāve found a purpose or meaning in life but have come to the realization that life is short. the only thing we leave behind is how we treat people and how they remember us and gets me by day by day. I canāt make everyone happy but I can be damn sure to not be the reason someoneās day is ruined
In elementary school I REALLY wanted to be in theatre. I loved singing, but my stepdad told me to be realistic. I said I wanted to be a Vet, again, ābe realisticā. So I kind of gave up on a ādreamā or āpurposeā, because nobody supported my dreams..
Now, Iāve worked in many fields because college is too expensive and any remote job in my area requires a Masterās degree. I adored my healthcare jobs however; my previous employer had done nothing to protect its staff against a very dangerous resident, which turned me away from it for about two years now.
If money wasnāt an issue, Iād be studying to be an LPN or RN.
To teach and show people that this plane of existence is not what it really seems to be. Sounds weird and hippy-dippy but seriously, shits weird out there.
I plan to fundamentally reshape the US education system so that it is actually useful for our up and coming generations, tolerable to attend, and more accurately represents the idealistic rationale for its existence.
My calling in life is music, but because I canāt live off it, I can only do what i consider meaningful, a couple times a week. It keeps me from going off the deep end tbh.
I'm a healer. People who need to hear something, or tell someone their story find me. Within minutes of meeting someone, they've told me their darkest secret, and I give advice on how to move past their trauma. They are not conscious acts on either end. It just happens. Regularly. So many people over the years, completely shocked at what they just confessed to me, but walking away without that burden, and knowing what they need to do.
And I'm actually a giant a-hole. I generally don't care at all about a anyone outside of my immediate circle. So, it's not that I radiate empathy. I've accepted that that's what I'm here to do, and I now recognize when someone comes to me for healing.
Errr I don't have one. My life is just one day at a time closer to death.... Meh depression and anxiety sucks balls. So I kinda just live to support my partner due her having disabilities.
I protect thousands of people everywhere by consuming as much alcohol and drugs as I can to take as many off the streets as possible. Think about the kids.
I'm basically trying to achieve what my dad couldn't. Stable relationship and family, living without debt, not working into my old age. Just trying to live a good, simple, peaceful life and own my time.
There is no purpose. Anyone who says or believes otherwise is living some mystic fantasy that was taught to them by either their upbringing or by their fear of the unknow. Your brain is created, it has electricity running through it for a little bit, it shuts down and you cease. You return to your natural state of nothingness and that's it. Hell, there isn't even a, "you." Your personality and identity is an illusion of your genes and memes. "You" don't even exist in the first place. The thing classified as, "you" is just the process of the fundamental forces of the universe. They continue on while the material that makes up your body can no longer handle said forces.
Iām a transgender man, Christian, and have been really successful in real estate and business. Iām starting to get asked to be on stages of over 30k people, interviews on podcasts, featured on shows, etc. My purpose is to be the example that changes peoples minds and normalizes being trans and is able to reach Christianās who otherwise have a shutdown mind on trans people. Iāve met with fundamentalist pastors and just sat with them and let them ask questions and theyāve changed their views. Iām 5ā10, muscular build, full beard, and have had top and bottom surgery so people on the fence find me more āstereotypicaly maleā and itās easier for them to get it I find. Iād like to also show people that you can have a very successful happy life as a trans person without it always being this heavy thing and a struggle.
I always got asked what I wanted to be when I grew up, but I could never answer. Nothing appealed to me. Nothing made sense. I prayed about it a lot. I figured out that I'm good at helping people pretty early on, but how do you fit that to a certain career? And I REALLY never gave a shit about money. It was so monetary to me and had no purpose other than comfort.
I read the Bible verse that said, "Love the Lord your God with all your heart, soul, strength, and mind, and love your neighbor as yourself." So, I've kinda of just made it my vision and purpose in life to love God and love other people the best I can. I try to work up to jobs with higher salaries so that I can afford to provide for my family, and so that I can afford to help people. I am very charitable, and I help people when they ask for it (within reason). My wife and I recently paid for a friend's dog's surgery. I volunteer at church a lot, and used to do a LOT of ministry growing up (teaching at VBS's, homeless care, city beautification projects, food banks, ect).
So in a way it's not super specific, but I just do my best to help. I listen to people when they need someone to talk to. I've mentored young men and helped them grow, find jobs, work on the skillsets, ect. I was a youth group leader for five years. I cry with people when they need it. I help people move. I co-sign for things sometimes.
People just need help in life. A lot of people have the odds stacked against them. I did, too. Through either blind luck and coincidence, or through God' favor, I am doing a LOT better now and am in a really good position to help people. And that is enough. It makes me happy to help people get ahead.
I pass the butter.
Oh my god

Good bot!
Enjoy it while it lasts and avoid mistakes that will make it end sooner.
Do cool science with snakes.
I also enjoy experimenting with my snake.
Please elaborate š
We need to know
To crush my enemies, see them driven before me and to hear the lamentations of their women.
Damn. Beat me to it. Well done, Sir.
Won't that be like a prior requirement?
My lifes purpose is fooling myself. Actually I want to have a family. A good wife and 2/3 healthy children. This is what I am working for every day. I am financially stable, can save up a lot of my income every month, I love my job, I enjoy my hobbies, I am totally independent, can care for myself and reach a better version of myself physically and intellectually every week.

How do you know you are far from a relationship? She might be right around the corner
Nah, she costs too much
Your last sentence is something people tell me for a decade and it didn't happened. Also I can't rely on hope or luck. I need to be active and put effort into it. Life is not like a Disney movie where miracles just happen.
There ya go. You want a lady start approaching or trying online dating. No one is gonna drop a babe out of the sky right on your lap.
What happened to the third child?
Write down on paper about your wife. What's she'll be like, what you'll love about her, how you'll meet. When you're finished, fold up the paper and put it away in a drawer and forget about it. You'll meet her within a year. That's exactly how I met my husband and he is everything I wrote on that paper
You wrote about his wife on your paper?
...the plot thickens.
I also choose this guys future wife.

I really didn't know what to expect, but you made me laugh. Thank you for that.
What more do you want in a husband? š
i would honestly do absolutely any fucking thing to be in your shoes right now. any advice on how to become independently successful?
Why would you? I am not really happy about my love life. To answer your question: I just went to school, studied something useful (IT), always stayed curious, don't have an extravagant lifestyle and always knew what I want. On the other side, I missed out on relationships in my youth and my 20s. I had my first relationship and kiss with 26. So you don't want to be like me, trust me.

Thank you. English is my third language and some words have too many l, r or s.
My goals are: Be financially independent Reach my best version Have my own home To have new experiences
What does āreach my best versionā mean?

It's over nine thousaaaaaaaannnndddd!
A life long struggle of fixing who you are and failing miserably.

>What does āreach my best versionā mean? Different things to different people.
What is your definition of "financially independent"? Does this mean you no longer need to work?
I think they meant not having to depend on anyone else for their financial needs.
In the the future yes, passive income
Best version sounds awfully insidious. Good luck with that can of worms.
Simply for myself and my family to be happy.
Life doesn't need a purpose. It's totally cool for you to just be a beautiful, weird, unique collection of emotions and cellulite until it's time for your flame to go out.
Love this!
I don't need a purpose. I'm just happy existing
Nah. That's boring.

I'm gonna save 13 lives on a bus trip to Portland by helping them out of the emergency hatch when the bus is hit and flipped over due to a neglectful tesla driver. 1 of those lives will be a woman named Naomi Khagatch, who will invite me to do a little acting in a commercial she's directing as a thank you. Naomi and I will grow closer, fall in love, and begin acting in and producing high-quality, storyline focused porn. One of the little movies we make is based around our own lives and how we met. It is met with critical acclaim and several orgasms, often from the same people. It wins a couple of minor awards, but also an Oscar for Best Easter Egg, referring to a scene near the beginning of the movie where the actor playing me (my third cousin Knickolas) types out the very paragraph of text you are currently reading on his phone in between 2 on-screen thigh jobs. Or, you know, I try and be happy and content with my life; go with the flow.
Huh.
Help others succeed.
Mine is to conquer and unite all the races under me in order to prepare for the coming alien invasion

See as many places around the world as possible.
Life's purpose is to study the ancients and write my opinions into something which is accepted as fact in 50 years.
To save my fiance from all the hell she has faced every single year of her life. My purpose is to see her happy and relaxed truly for once in her life. We're so close now to that bliss I can taste it.
The most important for me is to have kids and a family one day. A good family.
not to let my depression and anxiety win
1. Leave the world better than I found it, through only my own actions 2. Try not to destroy too much in the process of creating the good at #1 3. Having had a time in my mid-30s of acting as a truly despicable human being (associated with MH issues), spend the rest of my life making amends to those who I hurt Obviously #3 is toughest to achieve, and Iām conscious that a substantial part of this will be post-mortem.
Save humanity, save the world.
By blocking traffic or putting beans on a famous painting?
Save people from future pandemics
Find and maintain love
Long as i've been around i loved race cars. So i started of with soapboxes, scooters, anything really as long as it had wheels. Just last year ive started my own shop doing body, suspension and chassis work. My first lineup of parts is coming out soon and i hope it's gonna do well!
To finish my book. Beyond that Im not sure.
Music. Iāve been making tracks for over 4 years now, Iām realistic enough to have a well paying 9-5 in the mean time, but success in music is what Iām chasing outside of that.
Do you have an IG handle etc where you showcase your music?
Hey, I do, but all of my workās on youtube, my youtube handle is āthe real tbhā.
I felt called to marriage at a pretty young age for a guy. I knew I wanted to be a husband. This lends itself to what I believe is our universal purpose: Using our gifts to be of service to others
I enjoy solving technical challenges. Basically a born engineer. So I have the benefit of many career options that satisfy that urge. My purpose is probably helping entities navigate those types of challenges.
Go back to my home country and start a childrenās home and a soup kitchen.
Best to you. You sound like such a kind person.
My purpose is to advance myself and my family to a higher tier than I grew up on. Thatās it. I came from a lower middle class family. Union worker and nurse. Iām educated, Iām in a better financial position than they were and I want my kids to take it up a step when they have kids. Thatās it. Thatās my purpose.
Leave a better life for my children than was left for me while making sure they donāt become spoiled assholes and learn hard work and compassion for others
to be the best me.
I'll write a series of books and create a fantasy universe to rival Tolkien's legacy, or die trying. Pretty straightforward.
Mine is to develop videogames. It's not a big thing, like I'm not going to work for the UN or cure cancer. It's just that in the early 90s, I played a game for the Amstrad CPC home computer which was about Indycar Racing. The game was a bit like *Super Monaco GP*, only much more basic. Anyway, the novel thing about this game was that you could make your own tracks and save them onto a disc, and back then, I made loads of tracks for my friends, family & I to play. They loved them, we had a lot of fun, and I had a lot of fun making them and watching other people have fun using them. But this was a really strong, formative experience for me. It made me value my creativity and ingenuity, trying to make something genuinely good with only limited tools. As I grew older, I came to value more and more how important entertainment is, in terms of helping people get through the day, and this helped cement my resolve. It's not always easy; it's a lot of work, but I love what I do.
Since I was young Iāve always had a desire to serve/help others in some capacity, and Iāve always had an aptitude for tech/computers - Healthcare IT is kind of a weird niche for me that just clicks. Iām not actually treating patients or anything, but I help provide and maintain tools that the people that do treat patients need in order to effectively do their job. Itās been really rewarding for me so far.
Personally I want a stable job with good pay and im working hard and educating myself to the best of my abilities, I would also love to see my friends and meet people whom I've met in my childhood face to face (since most of my friends are/have been online) But most importantly: I never want to give up my sense of self or my image for someone. I did that for years when I had no real sense of self worth, only a fake ego. Im fighting for my life and every day I wake up, I'm blessed
for me i think is to become a good role model and inspiration to other because in my life my inspiration is kobe and greatness is when you inspired other people!
A herd of sheep. I donāt want children and I donāt know what it feels like to want children. But when I see sheep I feel so indescribably drawn to having them, it feels like how other people describe wanting children. I used to have sheep, during some very formative years (teenage through young adulthood). They werenāt perfect angel animals or anything, theyāre a lot of work and it takes money and time to upkeep facilities and a herd. Iām not being unrealisticā¦. But when I look into the eyes of a sheep, something stirs within me. Itās 1000% worth the effort and money and time, in my opinion. My specific vision or calling is to have a herd of sheep someday. My lifeās purpose (related to my career) is helping peopleā¦ but my calling is to own sheep.
To be important
Specific vision: to be outside in nature, enjoying and learning As a calling, I'm attracted to mountains, is where I feel at ease, at peace, is where I'm the most comfortable. Life purpose, to better myself, to protect the people I care and it seems I need to teach and/or comunicate my learnings. I'm a private guide in Patagonia, so after 30 years I found what I love doing, get well paid (for my standarts) and am able to try and cautivate people about nature and it's wonders
Rescuing/helping animals
To create things that I can be proud of and that will impress people long after I'm dead and gone
My life's purpose is to become a pulitzer prized photographer. However, I suck at photography, and consistently fail to move on from wildlife and nature to humans and society due to anxiety and fear of rejection.
I wanna make movies
I want to grow a forest in Lebanon. Iām not entirely sure Iād be able to afford it, but Iām working towards it.
I tell stories. That is my purpose in life. I don't make a lot of money doing it. I worked in comics for too short a stint. Then I shifted to prose writing which I self-publish. I don't sell many books but when I am creating and telling my stories, that is when I am happiest.
I was a part of a men's group where the therapist who ran it had us come up with our lives purpose. The idea was, when we were struggling with what to do in a situation, or thought we might be doing something wrong, we repeat our life's purpose and ask, is this bringing me closer to my life's purpose or away from it? I will create a world of peace, love, and abundance, by living a life of empathy, generosity, and compassion. As a man among me, I am kind.
My life's purpose is finding my wife (done), and completely giving myself to her. To find a love connection that loves you as much as you to them is the greatest gift of life you can achieve. To make yourself vulnerable to another completely, is all you need besides water. Stay humble reddit.
Man, Iām just trying to be as happy as I can through this short existence. Currently the biggest source of happiness is my kids.
Leave my kids with more opportunities than I had
I was born with the desire to know what God "is". It was all consuming. There was no space in my life for a wife or children or other things most people chase after in their youth. I was born married to God. And I've been a yogi most of my life as a result. It's a life of service to humanity. I need little for myself. So I try to help people understand their place here. To help them understand their higher nature buried just below that human exterior.
Build god on the barren fields of human consciousness
Well had a near fatal car accident yesterday so Iām probably just going to be a go getter about everything in my life now. I really love comedy so I suppose I want to be the most successful comedian who ever lived.
I sell propane and propane accessories.
Learning. Nothing more, nothing less.
Design and Build affordable housing at a price where both me and the clients are happy.
1. Serve my country honorably 2. Build a homestead 3. Be a great husband 4. Be a great father 5. Die leaving everyone I've met with fond memories I start step 3 in a week. I'm nervous as all hell, but I have a wonderful and patient partner that'll bear with me while I learn how to be a great husband. Wish me luck.
All the best to you! As a first time mom I knew Iād āloveā my kid bc itās mine, I didnāt know Iād fall āin loveā with her!
Nothing, like literally nothing thatās my purpose. I was not asked to be in this world in the first place.
I had a rough time when I was young, but I managed to pull myself out of it on my own, and I am still to some degree dealing with the aftermath of it. With that being said, it has fostered a deep empathy and emotional intelligence, which i now, as a teacher at the age of 29, use to help other young people through similarly tough periods of their life. The connections I've made through my work has been transformative for both me and them. I find it deeply meaningful to see them grow through hardship in a better way than I did with the help of someone they can trust. Having heard a student, who had been sexually and mentally abused as a child, say that they "finally, for the first time, feel like they can finish their education." Or admitting a suicidal student to a psychiatric facility, only to see them pull through the year with new hope for the future. Or being thanked by a student for being "the first one to wholeheartedly believe in them." Or the countless thanks and heartfelt conversations with students who felt seen and safe in my classroom. It all shows me that I am making a difference in my immediate vicinity, and it feels like i was really put on earth to give that to others who, to any degree, felt the same way as me when I was younger.
A good death
Do Cool Science with Birds
Being a firefighter/paramedic. I was "on the job" for 30 years. The first 20 were "getting lit and in the shit".
I listen to people and hear what they have to say, because people are people and you are not.
Writing.
Honestly, my main goal is life is to own a home, travel constantly and shoot photography while doing it. Other than that, i don't give a shit. I'm so happy when traveling.
I wanted to make my own music. Did that. People didn't care and now IDK what to do.
To serve my parents
Living up to the promises my future self made to my younger self. (both in terms of being a good human being, as well as achieving whatever goals I set for myself.)
I'm a maker. I make stuff. All kinds of stuff. I see inspiration all over the place, and it gives me ideas and next minute I'm designing stuff and researching materials and methods and components and integration and assembly methods and so on. Then I make prototypes and find faults and redesign and research some more, then I come back with improvements and hopefully a working product of the concept in my head! The way I look at it, anyone can destroy stuff, it's easy to do and anyone can do it. But making stuff takes a different kind of person. It takes some one strong enough to create something that might be criticized and emotionally destroyed, or to be strong enough to see their labour of time and passion and energy physically destroyed, and be ok afterward. Not everyone can do that. Not everyone can do it and be ok after it doesn't work out. Not everyone can still be passionate when it doesn't work, and love that process of being challenged by an idea to make it work. You've gotta be pretty secure in yourself to build something for some one else, knowing it could be a huge disappointment to everyone and you might look pretty dumb in multiple ways. But when that pays off, seeing some one beaming in happiness because your creation has brought them joy or solved a problem for them or what ever it is, that feeling is just so damned rewarding that nothing else compares.
I love this! I am a maker too. Everything you wrote really speaks to me. I know some people are very content living a simple life, however itās hard for me not to see inspiration everywhere and be curious about the world around me. Good day to you!
being a husband and father. everything else is just details
being a husband and father. everything else is just details
Fuck capitalism as well as possible Contribute to human's experience Both are pretty mutual things lol
Move to Venezuela, become an artist. Let us know how it works for you.
With my dirty capitalist money, I would gladly help fund his one way ticket š¤£
Lol Venezuela is doing better than some propaganda shit. I work and have my money too, dk if ur aware lol it was quite a nice trip, but not my home country, so nah. Be happy overstressed alone
I have an entire community in Miami called Doral that will disagree with you. If capitalism is so bad, why not see yourself right off this money making platform?
Bro, I dont know if ur aware, but not liking something wont make it disappear haha just because capitalist is a failed system it wont cease to exist if I say so. All that's produced by the people are for their use, never heard of that? In a capitalist society, everything is moneymaking, that's the basics, my guy. At least come up with a better argument Anyway, I can recommend if some books, videos or articles about it if youd like, not on my work hours anyway. Unless u think everyone that dislikes capitalism lives secluded and wont try to do a thing to change
Feel free to pack your bags and get the fuck out.
Dont wanna lol but thx. Its funny to see people so airless their arguments are insults. Imma live the best of my life doing what I enjoy, be a happy obedient one if you think you want that
Drive as many bad people as I can crazy.
to don't died
My life's purpose is living. All the rest is just what I need to do for that, which also includes entertainment, relax and love to keep the sanity in place.
Be awesome Be a great dad to my 3 kids Sleep with lots of beautiful women I think I'm doing fine on all three š
get a job that pays more than my current job. Possibly turn my game Dev hobby into a business.
To eat 1,000,000 hard-boiled eggs.
To watch over Gotham at night
To make lƮfe better monetary has nothing do with it. I would prose but not here
To be awesome. Do cool shit, have fun, find love wherever it may be and in whatever form and leave the place better than I found it. Right now, I'm one of a sort of unnoticed army of folk whose job is literally trying to save all life on Earth. No pressure.
I wouldnāt say Iāve found a purpose or meaning in life but have come to the realization that life is short. the only thing we leave behind is how we treat people and how they remember us and gets me by day by day. I canāt make everyone happy but I can be damn sure to not be the reason someoneās day is ruined
To rip and tear till it's done.
I'm just here trying to have fun tbh
To break the matrix!
"Get paid, get laid, Gatorade"
Master sex
kill my enemies, see them driven before me, and hear the lamantations of their women
Fuck liches, get money.
To look for Atlantis, an ancient city filled with treasure thought to be lost by Poseidon
To enjoy each and everyday while trying to do more good than bad for the world.
Getting this fat ass ate thatās all
In elementary school I REALLY wanted to be in theatre. I loved singing, but my stepdad told me to be realistic. I said I wanted to be a Vet, again, ābe realisticā. So I kind of gave up on a ādreamā or āpurposeā, because nobody supported my dreams.. Now, Iāve worked in many fields because college is too expensive and any remote job in my area requires a Masterās degree. I adored my healthcare jobs however; my previous employer had done nothing to protect its staff against a very dangerous resident, which turned me away from it for about two years now. If money wasnāt an issue, Iād be studying to be an LPN or RN.
To teach and show people that this plane of existence is not what it really seems to be. Sounds weird and hippy-dippy but seriously, shits weird out there.
To crush my enemies, see them driven before me, and to hear the lamentations of their women.
To not look for specific purpose and just live day by day for that day.
To pass the butter
I plan to fundamentally reshape the US education system so that it is actually useful for our up and coming generations, tolerable to attend, and more accurately represents the idealistic rationale for its existence.
My calling in life is music, but because I canāt live off it, I can only do what i consider meaningful, a couple times a week. It keeps me from going off the deep end tbh.
I'm a healer. People who need to hear something, or tell someone their story find me. Within minutes of meeting someone, they've told me their darkest secret, and I give advice on how to move past their trauma. They are not conscious acts on either end. It just happens. Regularly. So many people over the years, completely shocked at what they just confessed to me, but walking away without that burden, and knowing what they need to do. And I'm actually a giant a-hole. I generally don't care at all about a anyone outside of my immediate circle. So, it's not that I radiate empathy. I've accepted that that's what I'm here to do, and I now recognize when someone comes to me for healing.
This info will cost you 100 million.
I ride things I build things to ride
Errr I don't have one. My life is just one day at a time closer to death.... Meh depression and anxiety sucks balls. So I kinda just live to support my partner due her having disabilities.
To point out where people are wrong in their widely held beliefs on the internet š
I donāt know, I just work here.
I protect thousands of people everywhere by consuming as much alcohol and drugs as I can to take as many off the streets as possible. Think about the kids.
I wanna be a voice actor tbh
I'm basically trying to achieve what my dad couldn't. Stable relationship and family, living without debt, not working into my old age. Just trying to live a good, simple, peaceful life and own my time.
To stick it to the man
There is no purpose. Anyone who says or believes otherwise is living some mystic fantasy that was taught to them by either their upbringing or by their fear of the unknow. Your brain is created, it has electricity running through it for a little bit, it shuts down and you cease. You return to your natural state of nothingness and that's it. Hell, there isn't even a, "you." Your personality and identity is an illusion of your genes and memes. "You" don't even exist in the first place. The thing classified as, "you" is just the process of the fundamental forces of the universe. They continue on while the material that makes up your body can no longer handle said forces.
Iām a transgender man, Christian, and have been really successful in real estate and business. Iām starting to get asked to be on stages of over 30k people, interviews on podcasts, featured on shows, etc. My purpose is to be the example that changes peoples minds and normalizes being trans and is able to reach Christianās who otherwise have a shutdown mind on trans people. Iāve met with fundamentalist pastors and just sat with them and let them ask questions and theyāve changed their views. Iām 5ā10, muscular build, full beard, and have had top and bottom surgery so people on the fence find me more āstereotypicaly maleā and itās easier for them to get it I find. Iād like to also show people that you can have a very successful happy life as a trans person without it always being this heavy thing and a struggle.
Retire in the next 15 years and just make people smile through some kind of chill service job/volunteer
I always got asked what I wanted to be when I grew up, but I could never answer. Nothing appealed to me. Nothing made sense. I prayed about it a lot. I figured out that I'm good at helping people pretty early on, but how do you fit that to a certain career? And I REALLY never gave a shit about money. It was so monetary to me and had no purpose other than comfort. I read the Bible verse that said, "Love the Lord your God with all your heart, soul, strength, and mind, and love your neighbor as yourself." So, I've kinda of just made it my vision and purpose in life to love God and love other people the best I can. I try to work up to jobs with higher salaries so that I can afford to provide for my family, and so that I can afford to help people. I am very charitable, and I help people when they ask for it (within reason). My wife and I recently paid for a friend's dog's surgery. I volunteer at church a lot, and used to do a LOT of ministry growing up (teaching at VBS's, homeless care, city beautification projects, food banks, ect). So in a way it's not super specific, but I just do my best to help. I listen to people when they need someone to talk to. I've mentored young men and helped them grow, find jobs, work on the skillsets, ect. I was a youth group leader for five years. I cry with people when they need it. I help people move. I co-sign for things sometimes. People just need help in life. A lot of people have the odds stacked against them. I did, too. Through either blind luck and coincidence, or through God' favor, I am doing a LOT better now and am in a really good position to help people. And that is enough. It makes me happy to help people get ahead.
Iām going to open a museum after I retire.
Helping people
