Ah, so...I'm feeling incredibly excited and inspired right now because I've just realized what I want to do with my life.
I want to be in the business of making dreams happen.
Now, I know what that sounds like...but the way I mean it, I'd like to design and build things, invent things, that have always just seemed like dreams. I want to run a company comprised of dreamers, people like me, who are brilliant and inspired with a wide array of interests and the passion and drive top accomplish anything they can imagine. There would be no limits to what we would create...ah, I'm all excited and could ramble for quite a bit more about what I want it to be...this description doesn't do it justice. I've got it all worked out. It will be fantastic.
Ah, I suppose I should get on to the topic, eh? Now, while I must admit this is a bit of an excuse to share my excitement with someone, it also has a legitimate subject: What are your goals in life? What do you aspire to be or do?

My everyday aspiration:
To make someone smile.

My aspiration is to do something I love. Something that makes me excited to wake up and get to work. To me it doesn't matter if it pays well. Just something I absolutely can enjoy doing.
For me right now this is theatre. Mainly, being a technical hand when it comes to the stage. I love the adrenaline that's pumping through everyone as the time for the show draws near, then the sigh of relief and pride that comes after it's all over. I love the frustrated moments of "Where is that mic!? I set it right there and now it's gone!" "Don't ask me! I can't find my gels for the lights!" It's just so chaotic but for me it's also peaceful; it's my element and I know what to do with myself.

I'm glad your goal is so tangible, though - that you can do something you love without having to waste your time working up to it doing things you don't enjoy. I mean, I'm sure you'll work your way up to the higher level positions, just like any job, but you'll always be there, at the stage, doing something that makes you happy. That's what this company I'd like to build would be about - people with an aptitude for multiple things doing things they're passionate about. I mean, you know how I am - I get bored doing the same thing too long. Ideally, this place would allow people to essentially do any of the jobs they've dreamed of doing without giving up a chance at the other things they love. They could get together a group to work on, say, a computer game, and as soon as their part in it is done, they can move on and take research trip to study animals. We would build, discover, create new things. It it would be fantastic.Ah, there goes that rambling again. ^^;;
