This list was about material things in life. Other thought are very deep and I thank you guys for sharing. Not my intent to pry on those subjects. Please keep sharing though as those are very important lessons.
Gotcha. I don't have one then.

I've figured out that all lofty goals seem to do for me is create disappointment. No sense in adding to that by admitting failure and having no way out. Let me make it to the weekend again and those times seeing the kids and I am happy. Some may understand because they are in the same situation and some may not, that is OK.

I think and plan in a shorter timeframe as life is short. I simply try to make this year better than last year and try to accept what comes with life’s journey of curveballs.
The previous posts have gotten a lot deeper and contain great knowledge and wisdom, thanks for sharing.
Dave, what I've always read about doing is yes make the long term (10 year) goals but also then think about the steps required to meet them and list those as short term or intermediate goals. That way you get more positive feedback as you progress and also more help in realizing if you're on track or not. Finally the long term goals should be fluid because life changes.

With the deep thoughts, in 10 years I will likely have multiple grandkids running around. How the fugg did that happen?!
I'd be totally satisfied if I was still blowing the old lady's back out and breathing in ten years. I'm not complicating things with goals.
My plan for 2021 was enjoy life as much as possible. That got chit on. 2022 was just pay out of debt and make money in the market. that got chit on. 2023 is enjoy my 22 purchase Ohio property (see what i did there?) and pay off the house...invest when i have the balls to open a 401k statement again.
As with others- the enjoy more, worry less (but be financially responsible) is the theme
