Thread: One Destination on the Road

From Jim Rohn-

"The day you make a set of decisions can set in motion the next 10 years. Resolve is powerful: Resolve says 'I will.' Nothing can resist a human will that will stake its existence on its purpose. Resolve means promising yourself you'll never give up."

Just before my Grandad died a few years ago he said to me that when you take away everything in life, money and objects etc, love is the only thing that really means anything.

If your boyfriend loves you enough then you should be able to do what you want to do and he will accept it no matter what

You talk a lot and are a bit intense.

Easy on the caffeine. Relax.

Here's a gift on goals: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NHopJHSlVo4

I think you know, yourself that its not a good idea fr you to get married. For his sake and yours.

If you are anything like me, you seek variety and new experiences, i cant imagine living in the same country, being with the same person, doing the same job etc for more than 5 years never mind the rest of life.

Seems like you are more committed to reaching those $$$ and not to love- and thats fine, your more likely to reach your goals if you dont have other responsibilities holding you back. You just have to be clear on what you want.

Personally ive made the choice not to get married/have kids because it conflicts with my fastlane goals in the first place- to have as much freedom, with as little commitments.

Also WTF does it mean anyway. Marriage to me seems more about the event- can you love one another without having to "prove" it by entering into a legal contract and making a few vows? Makes it a lot easier to go your seperate ways also if it doesnt turn out as expected, rather than having a burden of divorce keeping you together when you dont really want to be. 50% of marriages fail anyway ("not mine tho!"- ye, just like youre the exception to all the other statistics- be a realist) so why take the risk.

Im atheist so maybe im not getting the religious significance of it though.

No offence to anyone whos married, i can see how it might come across this way, im open minded enough to be shown another point of view i havnt considered.

I like a lot of philosophies from other religions, Buddhism/Confucianism/Christianity/and more.... but right now at this point of my life, I'm not actually following one. I believe in "something weird" out there, but not necessarily a "Christian" God, but there's something... in my opinion, something mystical about existence. If anything I think there's multiple universes with higher lifeforms than us humans. I am not too sure about reincarnation, but definitely think there's more than just heaven and hell. But I also think religion is way to answer our cries for the end of our human mortality. But that's my theories right now.

Marriage to me is a way to keep a husband and wife together by a binding legal contract so they can raise a little family. But nowadays it's just a financial contract, and a sentimental piece of paper. It makes you feel a sense security... but really I see it as a financial contract.

Really, I don't want kids/marriage either, not because it interferes with my fastlane plans, but I would feel settle. I don't think I can truly love one person, forever...

I do. I have an infection I am waiting to heal, so I am kind of just waiting for this. I don't want to do any drastic moves, relocation, until it is gone.

Otherwise. The plan is clear as crystal. I don't want to say my plan in detail here for obvious reasons, but I'll post up success tidbits that come along...

Maybe. I am not worried about that as much since they wouldn't do it as well as I could. Well, I just don't want to verbalize it yet, until I am ready to launch it. It's too soon in the draft, since I only been 100% committed for the past 2 weeks, and I may change it a bit before I am finally happy with my idea. The plan is clear, the product isn't.

Plus, people will nitpick my idea, and I don't want the interference of others when it comes to the creativity part of my project. I like the ideas people have, but there's too many trolls/weak users who are just idling around here. basically farting around. What I say is 100% serious, so I can't muddle that up with people who don't know what the hell I mean. This place is full of ideas, and no logic. This is not target at any user here, but too many are just lusting over money. Money is nice, but I will enjoy it after I reach the million(s). I don't want to worry about that right now. I just want the best business I can come up right now.
