No Goals for Me

I don't have goals. I have ambitions.

And here is why I make the point to separate the two... goals are just that, goals. There is no less and no more to a goal than the end result. They are flat. Goals are what you achieve for yourself. Ambition is what you become in the process.

Ambition. Whoa, now here is a word with meaning. With thoughts and emotions, with rocks and rivers cut through paths and superheroes saving the day, your feet stuck in the mud yet a crowd of faces still cheering you on.

I don't know why this makes a difference, but the pictures in my mind of these words are drastically different.

So here are some of them... perhaps they'll come to be reality and I'll write about them in my blog.

1. Spend an entire day in prayer

2. My name on Google (on the first page of search results!)

3. Live in a spanish-speaking country for at least 6 months

4. Start a Supper Club

5. Be fluent in Spanish (regardless of whether ambition #3 happens)

6. Learn to make sushi

7. Live alone

8. Help teach an adult how to read

This list is ever-expanding. We'll see how it goes.
