Starting to think that the life I want is unattainable

But I'll keep trying and hopefully I'll get close

Well it probably isnt going to land on your front lawn gift wrapped. It requires a plan. Start with your ideal life. Look at the pieces of that and what it took to get those. Then work back step by step, each time looking at what it takes to get those pieces. Continue until you get to where you are now. Then take the first step..

@whowasthatmaskedman I get all that. That's why I said I'll keep trying. My plans hardly ever produce the results I want.

@iamnikki Maybe we need to start with smaller plans. My kids had big dreams when they were young. My son in particular wanted to drive a big luxury car, from a young age. That was an easy plan to draw back step by step to either having a high powered job that paid. Or provided a luxury car in his package. Then back to the degrees needed to get that job, and the marks needed to get into that degree, so he needed to work hard at school. He now has the job, the car and the lifestyle.

@whowasthatmaskedman I understand about making small steps and starting with the end in mind. My plans do not work, especially in 1 particular area of life. I will be doing a class/training/seminar partaining to that particular thing soon so that I can get the help I need. That's for your time though
