A Jump In Time

15 years is no short time period, For most people that is about 1/5th of their life. What will happen in 15 years? What will be going on in life in 15 years? What will I be like in 15 years? 

Think. I think that it's pretty hard to tell where I will be in 15 years. But there are a few things I hope to see myself doing in 15 years time. I hope to see myself with a career lined up for myself. This has a huge meaning to me for one sole reason. Purpose.

Purpose. Purpose is something that has a lot of meaning to me. I always feel like I need to have a purpose with everything and anything I do. Whether that is schoolwork, homework, hockey, or even working out. 

Work ethic. Work ethic to me is something that is very important to me. Not because it makes me feel good or anything like that. I think that work ethic really defines someone for who they are. I know many people with terrible work ethic and you can take a guess if they are my friends or not. They most definitely are not. Now currently my work ethic in school maybe isn't what it should be, but just because one of my areas is lacking doesn't mean others are. My work ethic when it comes to jobs, working out, hockey, and even life itself is something that I like to take pride in. I like to think of my work ethic being something as strong and superman. I feel like superman when it comes to work ethic! And I wanna keep it that way even when I am 32.

32. 32, wow! That is an old age, at least compared to how old I am now. 32 million, 32  cars, 32 houses, 32 boats, all something that I would love to have at 32. Everyone thinks that If I ended up working hard enough, I could acheive(32 houses with a real estate license for sure). I like to think that anything is possible. Especially at 32. 32 is an age where you are still young enough to have fun. I don't plan to spend every single day of my life after high school working. Now I may want a job that keeps me busy. I also strive to have fun at the age of 32.

Fun. Fun is something that I value highly. Fun is something that every life needs. Fun is someone that everyone needs! If people don't know how to have a balance of work and fun, then their life won't be fun. I hope to be able to have fun with someone that means a lot to me at the age of 32. I want to be able to support a family and have fun with them while being able to balance work. 

Balance. Balance is something that I also hope to achieve at 32. Whether that's having work and a wife, or even work and money. Wherever this path I’m on takes me to, I hope it takes me to equilibrium. Something that I can balance. I hope to be able to balance my money, wife(if there is one) and problems all correctly. Because then and maybe then, I will be able to reach what I want to reach.

Endgame. My endgame is something that I value most. I hope to finally be able to have my own house, wife, and who knows, maybe even a kid at the age of 32. I want to not only have a happy life at 32, but make others in my life happy too. I hope that I can see my friends, my family, and have the ability to travel at 32. Because I don't want to just have friends, I want to have a family.
