What is your greatest aspiration?

I could put it in my own words but this is better said and close enough:
To know, possess and be the divine being in an animal and egoistic
consciousness, to convert the twilit or obscure physical mentality
into the plenary supramental illumination, to build peace
and a self-existent bliss where there is only a stress of transitory
satisfactions besieged by physical pain and emotional suffering,
to establish an infinite freedom in a world which presents itself
as a group of mechanical necessities, to discover and realise
the immortal life in a body subjected to death and constant
mutation.
 
To build my own business that offers a good product, and offers good wages and benifets to as many employees as possible,
so that they and their families can live comfortably and have just as many opportunities as I hope my future family will have.
 
I want to be the first man to conquer the moon Titan. I think I'll go ahead and take Europa too while I am at it.
 
"What are we gonna do tonight brain?"
"The same thing we do every night Pinky, try to take over the world!"
 
To build my own business that offers a good product, and offers good wages and benifets to as many employees as possible,

To infiltrate his business as an IWW organiser and convince his employees to take it over for themselves. :mischief:

(Is it trolling if it's at least half-true? ;))
 
The circular nature of the OT (and also the even more circular nature of my OT posting)
TRIPLE META SCORE!

Will anyone vouch for a 4th level? (and not in my post).
I think this is the best in the thread.
No way dude, El Mach's star colonization 15,000 years from now was way cooler.
I'm going to rap my way out of the ghetto.
I like this one.



I have visions of my future. I see a few different homes owned for different times of the year. I see children, I see a business empire bearing my name. I see my contributions through politics advancing the lives of all people. My people are my equals, and they are every person of the world. I see friends, family, a longtime lover. I see giant zeppelins and glorious sunrises and pristine mountains and towers of civilization. I see good health and happiness and conviction. I see sorrow but acceptance and I fear some regret. I am 62.

Dialing this down, I do hope I can achieve the status of "21st century Ben Franklin". I like to "touch" things. I have had already such a diverse series of experiences, so many of them others are too constrained, by fear or inertia or lack of vision. Mostly small things, but then, I only came to life at 18 anyway. I had to catch up on being a teenager, being a student, and being an ambitious person, while still having limited energy reserves to do it. But it helped by freely dreaming this stuff since I was, I dunno, 13? 8? I never, ever, avoid a dream or pursuit because it's "unrealistic", and to break from my intended pacifism, death to those who do.

But I do sometimes retreat from something I want because I am afraid. Even if less than others, it's something I still have to work through. I am afraid of success as much as failure, because I have been Goi finally getting a full share of Yam Gruel. I am also sometimes afraid to fail at things I feel I should be good at, things that will show me my self perception is a lie, that my ego is greater than "my me". It's why visualization is so important, and why faith is critical. It's the sun that dispels the mist of "fear of the unknown". You're fighting one psychology with another, and the faith side wins. Almost all of my success happens when I am completely faithful I will pull off my aims even with immense evidence of why I should fail. And my failures happen when I entertain doubts, reasonably or otherwise.

My highest goal is to live a spiritually good life. Wrap up the reincarnation cycle. That sort of thing.
