Last November, I found myself thinking a lot about the future, and saved this writing prompt for a future post. Over the past year, there have been many changes in my career plans, and I found myself thinking about the future in more general terms. It began when I thought of something that I wanted to do in the future, and then I thought…what else? What else do I want to do, which ones can I reach and which ones will remain daydreams?
Here are a few things I’ve come up with:
- Keep a constant stock of wine
- Return to Amsterdam (possibly for an extended stay)
- Visit San Francisco
- Move to a different part of New York City
- Have a baby. And another…
- Launch a professional site for my skating coach services
- Try a job in industry or consulting
- Make new friends
- Sew more
- Compete in Adult Figure Skating Eastern Sectionals
- Advance from Sectionals to the US Figure Skating Adult Championships
- Pay off our credit card debt
- Get better furniture
- Find a career that challenges me and is flexible enough to let me live life the way I want to
What do you want to do in the next decade?
I keep a list like this – calling it things I want to do before I die. I learned to crochet, SCUBA dive and went on a hot air balloon ride!
You have your priorities right regarding keeping well stocked with wine!
visit Austin!
Indeed! Add that to the list. 🙂
