yeah i usally make alot of threads like this but they most of the time get over looked because of the sex threads and the silly ones (i think that might not happen so much now that jas went off on the boards in a drunken rage. )

so i ask you................... what are some of you goals in life......what do you won't to happen in life.........what do you live for.

alot of ppl here already know that i want to get in the music industry and change the game...... but i also have a keen buisness sense. i was making buisness plans at the age of 13! right in jr.high!! before the whole rap industry thought of owning your own i was preachen to my boys how we will each have our own buisness. i want to own alot of real estate and casino's see alot of the rappers we look at follow each others lead.... one rapper owns a record co. every other rapper what's one. one rapper gets a sneaker deal or a brings out a alcohol drink then every rapper wants one. nigga's follow to much instead of lead! i'm a leader and i wan't that bill gates money! fucken settling for that p.diddy dough i want the billions! and i have alot of goals to accomplish to get there......... so i ask me fellow xxl members what are some of your goals in life.......dancer, model, doctor??? what lets hear it!

U was right, this thread did get overlooked.

I dunno yet, Im still in High school and my only plans for the future is Army. Im thinkin about going to college for drawing or painting cuz Im good at doing those.

im currently going to college, majoring in Computer Based Recording, which means making beats with the computer.

to FINALLY start college....hopefully get a Major In journalism....and maybe...just maybe..write for XXL one day...IF they still on TOP!!!!!!!

career with my degree + 2 real estate properties i'll officially own + internet cafe franchise = CERTIFIED WEALTH






and about the cafe......all u can eat for DAPA

I goal is to finish college with my degree in industrial engineering and go to school for my masters and some day own a engineering business or maybe real estate.

Damn I could write a book but imma keep it short and simple. I have many goals in life, 1 of them im actually living right now. I'm The CEO of my own label, I'm creating my own destiny.This is something that I wanted to do as a I child, I always knew I would have a job within the music industry. When I was younger I also had dreams of going to the NBA ( Yea I play ball) (challenges?), I been playing basketball all my life it always came very easy to me. I played high school ball and I was unstoppable, whenever you do something and there is no challenge for you then you shouldn't do it, you should wanna struggle feels better when you win in the end.My next goal is to Become The CEO of a major music conglomerate (i.e..Universal Music Group,Warner Music Group, BMG Or Virgin).

Well...I still got time to think about it...as I am an youngster, but STILL..I got some plans up in my head.

First, I gotta pass my Cambridge Proficency In English Exam, this summer, AT LEAST with a B (which is FUCKEN HARD)...

Then...finnish High School with good grades...and I would very much like and want and hope to get a scholarship in the States...although my pop would like me to be in an european college....

Right now my short term goal is to finish school.....I've had a lot of obstacles that have knocked me off track since I graduated HS, but now I'm ready to move forward. Although right now I know it would not be right for me to go into the profession ultimately I wish to be a college professor----a history professor.....It's not glamorous but I like to teach.....I like knowledge and I like to make a difference in someones life.......I'm one of those idealistic people.....LOL

I also aspire to be a wife and a mother those are two very important things to me. I don't have to have fame and fortune (if they come or if I get them that will be icing on the proverbial cake) I just want to be secure in knowing I'm living my life to the fullest however that may be.

1st I want to pass enough curses and survive our 'writings'(that's what they are called in here, couldn't think about better translation) 2 years from now to finish high school then I want to go to law school in the states but I will probably stay in this stupid country.

You know da boy started AfterLife Entertainment short term goals include doin shows outside of Maryland or Arizona... I'm startin T-shirt company on March 1 I'll show some prints on here da t's are only $10 I hope to have a distribution deal for either da southwest or midatlantic region or both or just state deals in Arizona or Maryland... I wanna release 5 albums in 05 a new Cuffs one an SK one and 3mixtapes as well as recording lead video single for both artists.... 05 is gonna be a very very big year!

best of luck to alla yall

you too

Aight Ima list my goals. They aint in a particular order or nothin but there is A LOT of them. I got 10 ultimate goals. I say shoot for the stars and if you get halfway there then you doin good. A lotta people think my goals are unrealistic and I agree some of them are a bit far-fetched but I believe every one is attainable if I put my mind to it. Here they go:

Short-Term Goals:
1. Finish my remaining year and half of college and get my Advanced Diploma with merits in Music Industry Marketing & Management
2. Go to NYC in December/January as part of college course and do my internship at a record label.
3. I also wanna do a film-making course. Im currently looking into it. Ima try and do it at nights or the days Im off college, if I cant then i'll do it for a year once I get my advanced diploma.
4. Keep makin money, every way I can. And hopefully buy this apartment for me and my mom in the next 2yrs. It might sound unattainable to own an appartment by age 20 but we gettin it cheap cuz its city housing, but its nice.

Long-Term Goals (Here comes the part SOME people think are unrealistic):

1. I wanna be Head of A&R or Artist Developement at TVT Records. Possibly have my own subsidary label under the company.
2. Have a MASSIVE property portfolio and rent them out, I wanna be landlord.
3. Own a night club in my city. If its successful then expand it to a chain.
4. I wanna be a music video director and direct at least a few groundbreakin videos.
5. I wanna make at least one feature film. Who cares if it flops, I wanna do it for myself.
6. I wanna be a script-writer/ideas man. Coming up with movie treatments.
7. I wanna open my own boxing academy. Find young people who look promising, get them trained with the best trainers and hopefully breed at least 3 world-champions. Obviously there'll be some kind of contract signed that we have first re-fussal to promote/manage fighters when they turn pro.
8. I'd like to be some kind of teacher/lecturer at a school/college. Not full time or nuttin though. Maybe teach what Im being taught at my college right now. It seems like a fun thing to do.
9. I wanna help underpriveleged kids in my city. Especially the part Im from. I wanna try and help them realise their goals and dreams and employ as many of them as possible in my companies.
10. I wanna take over Barr's (a soft drink company based in my city), expand the empire into mainland europe, asia and hopefully north america then start selling its main drink "Irn-Bru" worldwide with the view of making it bigger than Pepsi.

I say Live for da next day...n i do dat everyday..till i cant

My goal would be to get a degree and get into a career that im good at. Hopefully it will be graphics design

As I've gotten older, I've realized that my ultimate goal in life is to just BE HAPPY. If this is accomplished I'm fine.

agree wit reesexc

hey!!i've been fine..you??

bump.

yo i ain't got everyones response to this shit! dont make me start callen nigga's out! lol

My goals are to go and stay in America, which I'm achieving this year when I go to San Fran for a week (but I KNOW a measly week isn't going to satisfy me completely so in the future I plan to travel around America)

To continue expanding my hiphop knowledge (never ending).

Find out about my biological parents and ask them questions I've had in the back of my mind for almost my whole life. unless they've topped themselves.

After that shit my life is fully in the hands of God. Come what may.

don't wanna go to into detail.....but I want to have established myself as a freelance model.....maybe get a TV show.....get my Range Rover.......and after I get that 6 figure modeling contract, I'll get my Aston Martin Vantage......get married and have kids

Right now I have no ambitons nor goals.

Sike nah let me stop...

My Ambition : (I forget who wrote this)
Take ones adversity,
Learn from their misfortune,
Learn from their pain,
Believe in something,
Believe in yourself,
Turn adversity into ambition,
Now blossom into wealth...

@Yoda, thanks and so are you from what I read...

in addition to my previous posted goals (look at 1st page)...i might plan to open a e-commerce site where I provide web design services for female models, where they can sell their shit without people jacking their pics.

happiness, money, fun, make a real difference to someone else, have a belief, have ambition....................etc
