Where I Want To Be In 10 Years

Recently, I’ve been asked what my goals are, where I see myself in the future, and its really made me stop and think about my life in ten years. So for those of you who are wondering and haven’t had the chance to ask me yet, here’s my answer:

I would love to have a stable job in my chosen industry. Since I’ve graduated college I’ve often find myself questioning whether or not I want to continue pursuing a arresting career. It’s when I am having thoughts like that where I have to remind myself that I have only been exposed to one actual job in the field I have chosen. When I was there, I loved every moment of it so I should continue searching for that dream job in the marketing industry. Whether this is my forever field, that’s unclear. At the end of the day I just want to be happy with the work I do and not be constantly hopping around from job to job.

No longer living in my family home. Don’t get me wrong, living at home is great (as mentioned in a previous post), but eventually a bird needs to leave the nest! Eventually I would love to have the chance to move out of my parents house and find a place that I can call my own. It’s a scary thought, and I wont lie I am terrified of not living with my parents, but in order to grow as a person it must be done!

In a healthy and loving relationship. It’s no lie that I’ve had my fair share of struggles in the love department, but that doesn’t mean I’ve given up on love! I would be beyond happy to find a loyal and loving partner to start a family with and spend the rest of our lives together. If that doesn’t happen, oh well because I do have amazing friends and family to surround myself with after all.

And with that being said, nothing would make me happier than to be surrounded by friends and family. I am 100% a homebody. I love my family, and I love being around them. Of course I’ve gone through periods when my friends and family were far away, and although it wasn’t horrible, it would not be my first choice. I can definitely see myself living close to my friends and family in the future!

Physically and mentally healthy. It’s no secret that I struggle with my mental health as well as my physical health. Although I am in the process of receiving help and focusing on/working on myself, I recognize that my recovery is not something that will happen overnight. With that being said, in 10 years I hope to be recovered or at least one step closer to being healthy in all aspects of life.

Free of financial worry. I was raised to want to be financially independent. It hasn’t been until recently that I’ve started to become SLIGHTLY more financially independent from my parents. I will admit, I still rely on my parents for food and the roof over my head and even my phone bill, but if I want something for myself? I get it for myself.

So yeah, these are my hopes and dreams for the next ten years I suppose. Unfortunately, to get to where I want to be, I am going to have to push myself and work incredibly hard (this is nothing new to me). I look forward to seeing where all my time, love, and hard work will lead me to!
