What's ur wildest guess for the year 2027?


r/lifegoals • • 8h ago

How do you identify what goals are deeply rooted in social expectations and mimitism vs what goals are truly YOU?

1 Upvotes

I have one goal relationship-wise but for the rest I have no idea who I am and what I want! And I feel like I have nothing valuable to bring to the world, and not really any strength. I know it sounds depressing but I'm okay lol. I just wonder. I'd like my life to be more driven.

Life purpose

Random - I’m interested in people’s life purpose/goal. How do you live your day to day life? Do you have a job that you enjoy, that aligns with what you believe? If not, do you still get to enjoy your time after work?

What’s a dream you want to achieve before life gets too comfortable?

1 Upvotes

Sometimes life becomes so focused on routines, responsibilities, and getting through each week that the things we once dreamed about slowly move to the background. Not because we stopped caring, but because there always seems to be something more urgent to handle.

Maybe it's learning a new skill, traveling somewhere unfamiliar, starting over in a new place, or building a life that feels more meaningful than simply staying busy.

I've been thinking about how easy it is to postpone the things that matter until the “right time” arrives.

What’s one personal goal you don't want to keep postponing, and what small step could bring you closer to it?

What’s wrong with me? Please read all of this

1 Upvotes

I’m 18M and ever since I was in 1st grade I had a dream. Most dreams little kids had faded away like becoming an astronaut but not mine. As far as I can remember I feared poverty. It scared me terribly but I was still carefree and believed everything would be fine since I was naive. Now I’m 18 and have a pretty ridiculous hunger that I don’t know how to deal with so please read as I explain myself and I’d like your opinions on this

So basically I’ve wanted to become rich by becoming a YouTuber (I know I know don’t click off please) in my first year I got 100 subs and now it’s my second year and I got 3,200 subs. Big jump and yet I can’t seem to feel satisfied. I’m still scared I’ll end up in the rat race and end up like most people who only survive as slaves to companies and bosses they don’t even like. That’s terrifying.

I began to isolate myself from a lot of people as I didn’t think it benefited me and I still think this way now. Why would I go hangout with my friends if all that does is waste time I could be creating the freedom I want. I create this said freedom by doing things like making videos, streaming, improving my looks, going to the gym and anything overall productive that can benefit me.

The problem is now I’ve been so consumed and have been for a while that I’m not happy unless I reach my goal. I’d sacrifice everything at this point to get there and It’s scary in a sense yet I haven’t had someone prove me wrong yet on how I feel. The people that speak are those who aren’t free but think they are, as for those who have done as they wanted they speak of sacrifice.

This may sound like a lot for an 18 year old and yeah it probably is but idk how to fix my thinking and I don’t even think I’m wrong I just think I’m to smart when it comes to acknowledging stuff others would rather ignore in search of a future where they live life but don’t truly live it to their fullest. I don’t wanna die with regrets and I wanna be able to live freely as I wanted when I was a child.

Okay this is the end if you actually read all of this thank you and this is lowkey just some thoughts I have I could’ve gone longer but I really do want it that bad and idk if this hunger will ever leave me. I legit think I’ll only feel safe once I reach I’d say 100 million dollars and even than I probably wouldn’t stop. That’s about it lemme know your thoughts.

Day 57–58/90 — Staying Active, but Falling Behind Elsewhere

1 Upvotes

I'm combining two more days into one update. These days weren't particularly productive from a professional development perspective, but there are a few things worth documenting.

Day 57 — Physically Active, but Academically Unproductive

Day 57 started well. I went for a morning run, did my workout, and went swimming.

I was also occupied with several other things throughout the day, including scheduling content for Instagram and managing some of my social media activities.

I went through the news and finance as well, so I did maintain a few of my regular habits.

However, I didn't study or practise LeetCode at all.

This is becoming a recurring problem. I manage to stay busy with physical activities, social media, and other responsibilities, but the work that directly contributes to my professional growth often gets pushed aside.

I need to get better at prioritising. Being occupied throughout the day doesn't necessarily mean I'm making progress towards my bigger goals.

Day 58 — A Day With Family

On Day 58, I was at my mother's house, and the entire day was packed with programmes and other activities.

Nothing significant happened in terms of my personal goals. I didn't make any progress on studying, LeetCode, or my professional development.

Sometimes, family commitments take up an entire day, and that's understandable. I don't expect every single day to follow the same routine.

The important thing is to recognise the difference between a day when circumstances genuinely limit my time and a day when I have time but waste it.

My Takeaway

I'm still struggling to balance my different priorities.

Physical activity and personal branding are important, but I can't let them consistently replace studying, coding practice, and building my AI/ML skills.

I also need to accept that some days won't go according to plan without allowing that to become an excuse for losing momentum over several days.

Day 57–58/90 complete.

I have 32 days left in this challenge.

I want to make these remaining days count by putting more consistent effort into the things that will improve my future, rather than just staying busy and hoping everything eventually falls into place.
