Hard to top that list, brother.

By the time I die, I want to be able to understand all music. If I'm in a jazz club, I want to be able to follow along with the musicians in my head and on an instrument without any sheet music. I have perfect pitch, so I'm half-way there! It's a LOT of work, though, figuring out so many tracks.

I essentially want to be Nick Oleksiak: King of Music.

I also wouldn't mind own a private place along the shoreline somewhere, anywhere really. I love water. In reference to one of your points, I've actually snorkeled in the Great Barrier Reef before. It was amazing to say the least. I'd love to go back someday. You better get there before it's gone!

@Jecht Spencer I love your fuck it list!!! I think all of these are capable of achieving! I want to travel the world and I don't want to make it just a dream! I want to find a practical way to achieve it and study other people who traveled the world and apply their strategies.

Take advantage of sales at the local supermarket.

Actually, a lot of these goals can be achievable!! You need to think strategically to achieve these goals and learn about people who have achieved the same goals as you did. If you say the goals are fantasy, than that would limit you from achieving them. Maybe you can tell yourself "these goals are grand but I can create a solution!"

If you say the goals are fantasy, than that would limit you from achieving them. Maybe you can tell yourself "these goals are grand but I can create a solution!" Some major goals I've achieved were going to San Francisco and New York, committing myself to a Twenties Journal and writing around 90 pages, committing myself to daily creative writing, and seizing new experiences like theater experiences and to skyrocket my own happiness and i'm in my early twenties. You have the great vision but what you need is to think like an entrepreneur and create your vision rather than say "it's impractical." When people try to be "practical and realistic" they can feel unfulfilled.

Honestly, I feel like I'm living in a quarter life crisis where I'm focusing on all of these aspirations and achieving them even though I'm in my early 20s so I can prevent dying with so many regrets that I feel unaccomplished with my life. I've had so many great experiences in my early twenties!

No but they will be some awesome experiences that is for sure. Leo might be happy in a box and maybe one day I'll reach that level of fulfillment. Though coming from the Navy out to sea I can see it being a very similar experience and to be honest I never want to go back there.
