That whatever it is in life that you want, wanna do, or wanna accomplish in it - is simply up to how hard you work in the progress to get it, but everything you want and dream can eventually be achieved - It's just about how bad you really want it. What is the purpose?
To expand your brain cells. (Agrees with Avarice) What are your goals?
To be what they said I wouldn't be. Successful. your weakness?
My daughter and my fiance. your fears?
God - and God alone.

My outlook on life is purely to be the best i can be , do the best i can, but live my life and not regret any shit i have done , but move on and carry on living and ejoying my life What is the purpose?
the purpose is to understand life and adapt to the culture you live in, also learn in the place you most feel comfortable What are your goals?
goals are similar yet again, to be the best i can be , to provide for my family, and bring happiness to my family and sarrounding community, your weakness?
goes without saying my children and my lover in mah life, your fears?
my fear would be to loose the people i love, family and friends ( of course RF too ) Who are you right now and how far are you from what you want to be in life?
ok well, i am currently not far away from where i want to be in life, currently i am a IT Consultant, but my course's i have done is CCNA neworking admin) + CCNP ( networking profesional), plus all little courses such as Microsoft Certified + ECDL + ECDL Advanced,

Bleak. I see a frightening downward spiral occuring in our society. Everyone is so concerned with "making it" or getting to the top they don't understand in order to do that you HAVE TO crush other people, with the same ambitions and dreams as you who are striving for the same exact thing. There can only be one #1. We've always had competition in our society but lately it seems companies aren't content with sharing the spotlight.. it's either all or nothing. Most companies can no longer exist in the #3 position.. Ford Motor Company is a perfect example. They're in the midst (or have they already.!?) of a massive lay off of hundreds of thousands of jobs which will mean for the first time in America a foreign car manufacturer (possible Honda or Toyota) will be in the top 3..! It use to be Ford, General Motors and Daimler Chrysler.. but now Ford, with the massive lay offs and product restructering will no longer be able to maintain their top 3 spot. I think in the future you'll notice more and more BIG companies following suite and either downsizing or worse, folding altogether. Ofcourse this means more unemployment.. more taxes for the working to balance that unemployment.. and eventually if things continue along this trend it'll be far worse for people in the future because with less options and choices to pick from.. not only does the consumer suffer but companies seek other viable sources of manufacturing be it outside of the US, or by cutting out the human employee altogether and going with an automated work force. This.. not even including problems with our Ozone, problems with other countries and threats of Nuclear weapons, wide spread famine and disease in 3rd world countries... there's just so many things going wrong with our species and our eco-system it becomes apparent that the distant future doesn't look so good..! What is the purpose?
Of Life... In my opinion the purpose of life is as simple as a test to advance further. If you believe in God and Heaven.. Life is your test to get into Heaven and prove you belong there. If you're a complete self centered, heartless asshole on Earth how would you expect to be granted passage into the kingdom of Heaven..? If you don't believe in God.. Life is YOUR test to take and learn the answers to so when you have children you can cheat and help them out with their "test". If you believe in reincarnation.. Life is your test to prove you're worthy to be reborn again. Life is a Test. What are your goals?
To provide for my family. To be the best at whatever I do, no matter how big or how small, how important or how insignificant. To raise my son to be a good man. your weakness?
Family. If you have a family (Mom, Dad, Wife, Kids, etc...) if you're close to them, and love them.. IT'S YOUR BIGGEST WEAKNESS..! I'm 99.99% sure almost everyones answer will be the same. your fears?
Again.. the previous question and this one go hand in hand. Something happening to my family is the only thing I really fear. Who are you right now and how far are you from what you want to be in life?
If I get this job I'm in the running for I'll be looking pretty good. I've already been offered the position but on a different shift ( I want Graveyard) and I've been told as soon as something on 3rd shift opens they'll be calling me because they really want me to work for them. Which says a lot for me and what I've accomplished since I'm a highschool drop out (GED..! STAND UP..!) with no college degrees, so to be making 60,000+ usd a year would be something..! We'll see.. as far as a person, especially as a father and husband i still have a lot of work to do. I'm learning. I think I'm a better husband now for sure. I'm getting better as a parent. Always room for improvement... perfection is impossible in those areas I believe but I'll keep striving towards it.
My apologies for the length.. typical STRONGARM..! lol.. |

| Re: Your Life... What is your outlook on life?
My outlook on life is you get out of it what u put into it... Im a pretty strong believer in karma and you reap what you sow... i just reaped some bad shit, n i started off asking why?? then soon realized i deserved every bit of it and prolly got off lightly... I also believe in confucianism in that every person should strive to make themselves better as a whole, and their surroundings better as a whole... and that whatever you should do, should be done to make you a better person...
What is the purpose?
the purpose of life... live every minute to the fullest, have as much fun as you can and try not to get bogged down in all the bad shit goin on... the purpose of life is to see where your choices and free will lead you... whether it be good or bad
What are your goals?
one goal is to graduate college with 2 degrees next semester, but i gotta take 7 full classes (which is almost 2 semesters in one)... n after that get a pretty good paying job and have a family n all that shit...
your weakness?
temptations... (im that .01% Strong left out)
your fears?
that im not good enough
Who are you right now and how far are you from what you want to be in life?
im pretty far from where i want to be in life... still got a long ways to go... and just got setback a little...i think it will take me a good 10 years or so to be close to my goals of a successful businessman, parent/husband, with job security and not having to pinch every penny i spend...

Life is a game filled with good and bad choices. What choices you make will determine the outcome of your future.
What is the purpose?
The purpose of life.....Hmmm...To live everyday to the fullest....Make the most out of yourself and be all you can be.
What are your goals?
To stop selling yayo and try to develop and maintain a family. I'm starting to hate being lonely. Cause right now, it's just me. Get a regular job and quit the drug distribution business.
your weakness?
My heart. I don't have family. I was in foster care and I fall in love too easily. Always with the wrong type of females as well. It's hard as hell for me to trust anyone. Definitely trust issues.
your fears?
Being another afro american statistic. Not making something positive out of myself.
Who are you right now and how far are you from what you want to be in life?
Right now I'm a full time dealer/ producer. All my income is from drugs. I have my own place and I travel alot. Tomorrow I record my first studio track with this label in texas. they might wanna sign me depending on how well i do on this track tomorrow. if that goes well i can stop selling and start to piece my life back together little by little.

It's Jus An ILLUSION!:a one dimensional realm, where we exalt and put all our resources into what is set at the surface.some die happily never knowing OR speculating that there was much more to it ,than our worldly desires. Other's live to be shaken out of their stupor, they soon realise that life's nothing solid, just a simple carnal illusion.. Then they too die, slowly, painfully deep within the recesses of their minds, their spirits, their hearts, they think others would understand that they knew that there is more to life (e.g the overly religious ones amongst us )...But That too is an illusion! Cuz no one cares or gives a fuck about none ah that shit! Only God.
What is the purpose?
Of life?: We live to die- That's it! At the end of it all, when u die you die. Nothing you have accomplished physically goes with you.
My Purpose: To make some sort of positive impact on the earth, my community or family. either one!
What are your goals?
To be a well respected indvidual, not based on my possessions, but on my character. To have a well paid job. My immediate goal would be, graduating from col.
your weakness?
My bad temper,family & friends.
your fears?
God, AIDS & STD'S
Who are you right now and how far are you from what you want to be in life?
At present im a young adult, chillin having fun,partying, going to school, get money here n there thru my hustle. Im not that far from what i want to be in life, i'd say in the next 5 yrs or so...I'll be pushin that BM'dub, all chromed out, with nice suburban crib, holding down a managerial position in some Advertising/Marketing Firm.
