Dreams of Life
What are your goals or dreams for your life? What would you love to do if nothing would hold you back?
What are your goals or dreams for your life? What would you love to do if nothing would hold you back?
Iād love to own a company related to something to do with metal. Iād like to make knives and stuff, but Iād be happy to make parts and pieces for anything so I could ensure quality. But also travel the world.
Fly helicopters. If not that, hike off into the Canadian woods and start from scratch. Awesome question! Also go back to Australia with no agenda.
YOU WENT TO AUSTRALIA????? That's so cool. Those are awesome dreams. <3
@š¤SavageGirlš¤ I did, and Canada, which is where my family is from. Both places are so beautiful. The accents are awesome as well. Iām an idiot though, i got confused while i was in Canada and spoke Spanish, with obvious confused looks lol. I know just a little French, so that was interesting lol. The snow was amazing, everyday so beautiful. The people in both places were so nice, like everywhere just super nice people. Australia used the total opposite of here, seasons and time zones. Right now they are going into Winter. Hong Kong was awesome too, wish i couldāve spent some time there, only got to see it from windows.
@š¤SavageGirlš¤ I forgot to say thank you, so thank you very much. They are wonderful dreams indeed. What are yours?
@Someonemaybe - Wow, I would love to go to all those places, and I understand the accidental language confusion >< I only know English and a little JP
@Someonemaybe - Of course!! I want to sing on the side while doing my veterinary. Gonna have 2 sugar gliders, my kuten (a Russian Blue), 5 dogs (Aussie, Siberian Husky, Shiba Inu, German Shepherd, and Belgian Malinois), a mini croc and alligator, and maybe a ball python or corn snake. <3
@Someonemaybe - I've also convinced my honey on possibly 6 kids. <3
@š¤SavageGirlš¤ They are beautiful places to go if you ever get the chance. And just for clarity, i donāt speak Spanish well, just enough maybe lol. And while my family was French and spoke French, they were reluctant to teach us kids what they were saying, because then they couldnāt say the aweful things to each other without us knowing lol, so i never learned much French. My uncle taught some words and phrases that would get me slapped by a woman for saying lol.
@š¤SavageGirlš¤ You are going to need to buy an island and own 15 houses for all those people and creatures lol. Thatās awesome, so many wonderful companions and people to love. And a mini croc, that is really wild. Just make sure itās legal to own all these wonderful creatures. I have five kids and Iāll tell you, itās pretty wonderful as they are as well. Thank you for sharing your dreams as well, thatās awesome!!
@Someonemaybe - >< That seems pretty common, but the phrases can be pretty funny for people who don't take them personally.
@Someonemaybe - Of course, and thank you!! I'll give my honey whatever he would like, since he is my everything and loves me a little too much >< <3
@š¤SavageGirlš¤ Awesome!! I donāt think one could ever love their person too much, impossible šÆ.
@š¤SavageGirlš¤ Oh absolutely, he was quite the character and such a nice guy. I miss him. Iāve never said what he taught me actually lol, Iām not a fan of being slappedš¤£
@Someonemaybe - ><
I like this question :), I want to have a YouTube channel and a business selling my art! (Currently working on both but too scared). But really my main goal in life is to make people happy! Especially those who are neurodivergent! :)
That is so awesome!! You should pursue those dreams, they're amazing. I'm extremely neurodivergent. <3
@š¤SavageGirlš¤ Thank you! I think I'm going to start posting on YouTube within the next few months despite my fear of being cancelled lol! I hope you achieve your dreams too, whatever they may be! <3
@lolapug - Thank you, and I pray the same for you.
Great question! I would make art āĀ all the time. I would create stories and publish them, and I'd travel the world getting inspiration for my work.
That sounds amazing. I'm currently writing a book, but I can't draw because of my perfectionism OCD. TwT
@š¤SavageGirlš¤ - That sounds so cool! I struggle with this soo much, I literally will throw away an entire drawing if it's not perfect. But it means we care a lot about our work, which is awesome š
@flyana - Yup!!
If you have been thinking about looking into therapy but you haven't yet, what's holding you back? Maybe the support of the community can help you take that step to feeling better!
My biggest issue with things in my life are not feeling confident in things I want to do and feeling doubtful combined with anxiety. It makes me not want to do a whole lot of things outside of my comfort zone because I either feel I'm not ready for them or I don't deserve them. In the back of my mind, my brain tells me that I've done something in relation to POCD because of porn when I was a teenager and a time I tried to help a minor with OCD. Or that I've committed sexual harassment because of a time I tried to zip up a bag but didn't tuck my arm and it touched someone's behind when really I just didn't want to keep listening to my OCD about how much of a bad person I would be or bad things would happen if I didn't tuck my arm. I thought I would just very slightly brush up contact and it wouldn't matter that much but it just ended up happening in the worst way. I remember how extremely depressed this made me and I just feel like I don't deserve to go on because of these kind of thoughts, memories, and worries. These worries are what keeps me down from really living my life. Another part of this is I feel I need to just have my needs met before I can really carry on in life I also know that I can't keep waiting for things to feel right when I need to do them. Is this a sign of Just Right OCD? Needing my feelings to feel just right in order for me to do someone I really want to? I act on my feelings more than I do my rational and it definitely shows in my anxiety. This stuff holds my back on my dream goals, trying to get experience with relationships, going to school, and just overall being happier and caring a lot less about anxiety. I don't know how to get rid of them. I just try to let them pass. Sometimes that works, sometimes that doesn't. Being up at night is a trigger for this for sure.
Anyone else really wanna pursue their dreams, but imposter syndrome and OCD thinking holds them back? For me, itās my art. Iāve had some success with my art, and itās been really exciting, but then I think of all the things I regret and the mistakes I made, and Iām terrified, so I recoil. I never feel like I deserve it. All those artists whoāve been praised for their art by the masses, I imagine them as being perfect. I know itās not true, but I mean, how can you put yourself out there these days and not know you have no skeletons in the closet?? I see people making reels and theyāre so confident and carefree, and I think, āI bet theyāve never made any really big mistakes, or else theyād be terrified of having themselves out there.ā Iām probably projecting. Maybe theyāre just as terrified deep down. Maybe thatās what drives them. Maybe thatās what makes their art so touching. All I really wanna do is impact other people with my art. Maybe thereās a selfish part of me that relies on the praise, and thatās the part I need to let go of. Whether I get praise or not, my art should just be something Iām proud of. If I can help someone with my art, that would be amazing. Like you guys. I feel like this community is my demographic, and even if the rest of the world turned away from me, the ones whoāve been in my shoes are the ones I should write for. Anyway, this is a huge issue for me and my OCD. If anyone has any words of wisdom, I would really love to hear them, because I feel pretty stuck.
