I've been doing that alot. I haven't really been listing my goals in that type of form, but lately I've had ideas in my head like:

- When I get my license, I'll be happier... (already happend)
- When I graduate High School, I'll be happier (one and a half more years...)
- When I actually take a big plunge in the business world, I'll be happier...(I've only had tiny ventures)

Is this incorrect thinking because I think so? It's tough for me to really focus on goal setting when I have all of these things like high school that I want to get out of the way. I love my friends and the people, but the actual eduation and loss time of what I could be doing something productive is killing me.
