TL;DR: I don't have long-term goals. I am setting short-term goals (at most a decade) and then re-evaluate my life purposes and begin again. I don't really have goals longer that one decade from now. I don't really know what I want to have by the age of 80(im currently 29) so I am not concentrating there. I do know a few things I would like though and those are money and to still be working with interesting things that I love doing (programming, business running, hobbies, family, friends). So what I do is I set short-term goals that are making me work towards those life purposes. I am aware though that these purposes may change so I wouldn't like to work for two decades on making money and then suddenly realize that money was not what I really wanted. So I set a goal 10 years ago and was stating that I wanted by the age of 30 to be a highly-paid (to fulfil my need for money) software engineer (to fulfill my need to do something that I love doing). I am very happy with my progress so far and I am still waiting for the time that I would make piece with myself and sit down to set the next goal which will also be short-term, something like "build a buisness by the age of 35 and marry your girl". |

I do know what I want to have: my health. Health is kind of relative at that age, but I'm working now to be the healthiest 80 year old I can be.
