Do you have a future?
In other words, is your future set for you? Are you going to go off to college or get that job you always wanted to have? Or, are you one of those people who don't know yet?
I'm spoilering my future for personal reasons. Spoiler:
In more lighter terms, I wouldn't mind becoming a full advocate for people with disabilities. I'm very strong about my rights as a disabled person, and I wouldn't mind trying to promote awareness for mostly autism. Either that, or become a writer... if I could actually FINISH something. :c These are just thoughts though. So yeah... what about you guys? |
No. I'm tied with the court system on some bs charges that's crippling my ability to succeed since they expect me to pay them instead of bills or college. So until they're paid off I can't even imagine doing anything. So I'm basically just doing music on the side and planning how I'm going to succeed with it. I'm halfway through the process. People have told me I'm good enough to succeed in it and this is people I never even met so I'll see how it goes once I get it going. Plus my family has a history of music success and it runs in my blood so I feel I need to continue that tradition. Fuck being a slave to the system the rest of my life, I'd rather do something I want at my own pace.

nope!

I'm disabled as well, it's a bit hard for me, but like you I'd like to be an advocate :>
|
I am not sure.
I am still in school and my family is very supportive of me. School is getting really hard but at the moment im very happy as I managed to achieve an A in my French exam due to the tremendous amount of support my french teacher has been giving. My teachers are predicting that by the end of the year I be getting an C or a B. I dont know what sort of career that I want yet. I thought about teaching,lawyer and I want to do something relating to the fashion industry but im unsure of that. But as for family and relationship aspirations. I want to be in a stable and secure relationship with a husband and have children who I be able to spoil to death. But then again this is reality so I doubt anything will work out the way I want.. |
still in school and i'm doing really well which is fucking great. i know pretty much exactly what i want to do in life; i'd like to be a footballer's agent over in europe. i'm just having problems figuring out how to do that lol. i'll probably study law stuffs at university (haven't looked at anything yet).
as for family stuff, i'd love to be in a relationship when i grow up with maybe 1 kid. but i know my ideal career has too much travelling in it, to the point where people won't be able to work around it >~< oh well. |
To be honest, I don't know. Back when I was in college, I thought of myself hopefully getting into finance or something similar, but when I graduated in 2010 that was when the economy was pretty bad and, well, even the experienced folks had a hard time getting jobs. Almost six years later, for now all I see is very pessimistic.
|
Survive high school and apply to some colleges i guess. Idk what I want to do really. Probably something with social studies. My goal is to get a sustainable job to eventually raise a family or something. Knowing me, Ill probably become a professor and live out my days.

Future? That's a word I don't like unless we're talking about spaceship battles and cool impossible technologies.
My future is uncertain, but stable at the same time. I can't work due to my brain accumulating mass amounts of stress which eventually build up into mental breakdowns once every few weeks. All of the jobs I can obtain are minimum wage, low rate nonsense where everything is disorganized, the managers are incompetent, customers run rampant, and little stresses build up. And I've basically given up on school for two reasons. One: It's a lot of money for no guarantees. Two: They forced me to take a bunch of math courses, and I'm like, no. Math is not something I will ever be able to do properly, so just let me pick something else and avoid it as much as possible. So my current future and career is this: to try to exist as peacefully and stress-free as I can. It is much harder than it sounds, particularly when even interactions on these forums can drive me up a wall with stress. I live on the kindness of others, and I appreciate their support for allowing me to not have to deal with that which will negatively impact my health. (In particular, my fiance. He works a full time job paying off our debts whilst we live in my parent's house. He's trying right now to get the government to consider me disabled so that I can at least get some money to help us live) I do have things I spend a lot of time doing for no payment, such as writing and art. (Excepting the occasional commission, which is NOT enough to support me.) These are what keep me entertained. I have no intention of turning them into a career, because that is too difficult and the competition is fierce. I'll just keep doing them out of the pure enjoyment of my heart, for slight pennies sometimes. If something happens that I can handle, then that's great. If not, then that's fine too. |
I'm gonna graduate from Uni next month.
The future never looked that scary before. You figure something, you have dreams, and when you are there... Now, what? |
nope. i should go and try to get into college. but idk. saving up money for a few months at a time and then blowing it all trying to win the lottery sounds more exciting. also will make for a better story to tell kids/grandkids when they decide they want to try and be a no life piece of shit like me.

I gotta job lined up as a flight instructor once I graduate from flight school in june, I'm gonna have 6-8 students from the start which is insane. super stoked

There was a time when I'd give you a clear honest answer of yes. I was in university studying education and I was getting into the beginnings of working as a ballroom dance instructor with further qualifications in that area on the horizon. My future looked pretty solid, I even had a long term girlfriend that I thought might be the person I'd eventually get to settle with.
Then the relationship ended, university kicked me out based on a bullshit technicality I got terribly ill, my autism and anxiety/depression issues have gotten insanely bad as a result of my illness. I can't study, I have no relationship, I can't dance and I generally can't leave the house because of sickness or panic. I'll get better eventually I'm sure but right now my once bright future is looking very bleak and I have no idea what my life will bring anymore. |
So much negativity in this thread! Of course you all have futures. But we shouldn't live in them. We should do what we can with what we have now, and try to form goals to strive towards. Any kind of goal. In my opinion, at least (:
I have a job, cats, friends, home - but no goal. I really don't know what to strive for :/ that bothers me a bit. Okay it bothers me a lot. I don't want to make "finding a man" my goal either, haha. So I just keep going. I obviously have a future, I just really don't know what it is. I need a goal. Hm. |
I've so many goals in my mind. I don't know if I can accomplish them all or not. But so far whatever I learned from life is never give up. You will eventually going to achieve your dream.
|
I've never really planned ahead much for anything really. I graduated highschool, went to a budget college and graduated, found myself a decent job, etc. I did all that without really planning any of it. Was more of an up-and-coming checklist of expectations held by my family. Now that I have a job, I'm consistently going to work and coming home to do nothing on a regular basis.
I don't mind it. I'm in a comfortable place, but I guess it can get lonely. |

Same as Johnny you achieved your goal but Is there something in your life which you wanted to do so badly ? As for my goals.. My first goal I want to eat "real" ramen. (hmm...that's right. It's so important) My second goal is ....................sorry I forget this one. My third goal is i want to make a naruto mafia(for real)... I'm enrolling in university next month. So my fourth and real goal is rocket science ( aerospace engineering). I really am going to destroy it to oblivion. and so on. But these are important ones. |
Ever since finishing up school, I've felt like I'm gonna end up in this sad loop of work-go home-rinse-repeat. Mostly because I don't like the industry I'm in and I'm always exhausted and work so much.
The only thing I'm actively working towards right now is graduate school but that's still a few years away if it happens. Everything is basically up in the air and I don't know what to expect in the future which can be intimidating sometimes, but I'm trying to work on getting excited about it. |
I love the job and career I have now. It's not without stress and it's certainly a lot of hard work and puts a lot of responsibility on me, but it's nothing I can't manage, and it all feels worth it in the end. The only thing I see for my future is moving up the "ladder" at my company and becoming engineering manager or engineering team leader or something to that effect--if not that, then I'd just like to get a fancy title like some of my co-workers have, like "senior software engineer" or "software architectural engineer" (and of course the extra pay that comes with it n_n)
I just want to be as much of an asset to my place of employment as possible, no matter where I work. That's the closest thing I have to a solid plan for the future. |
My future is still pretty undecided, but at the moment the most likely option is stick with my current job and move up through the ranks. At the moment I mostly just build pallets of soda, then load them into trucks. But I'd like to be at least a few steps higher than where I am now, even if I don't make a full career out of it. I don't really mind working for Coca-Cola, but I'd rather not work there forever.
The best outcome would be to get the job I would enjoy most, which is as a voice actor, or actor of any sort. It's not just something I enjoy, but something I am extremely passionate about. I absolutely love bringing life to characters. Above all, I'd love to voice Anime more than anything else. (Like any nerd would, really) That's what I would like most to see in my future, but it will require a lot hard work to accomplish. |
