I agree with you. I just wanted to make the point that focusing on fulfilling your desires isn't going to empower you.

2. Make $80,000/year doing something I love
80k may seem like a lot to some and a little to some, but I think it is a realistic goal that would keep me happy. If I peaked at that in my life, I would be content.

3. Have a flexible career
Holidays, holidays, holidays. I am NOT a call-in-sick guy, so I feel I deserve 1 to 2 weeks off for Christmas, 2 to 3 weeks off for summer, and that is all I need. Mon-Fri isn't too unrealistic either I feel.

5. Have my parents understand I appreciate what they have done for me
I want them to feel they have done the best job that they could have, and that I appreciate every ounce they put into parenthood, good times and the bad.
