What are your goals?

[Vex]

Get money, get hoes, get high

[Adam Strange]

Get money, get hoes, get high

Makes sense. Just don’t try it backwards.

[EUDAEMONIUM]

I've seen this tip on countless online articles about how to make/break habits. I'm trying that, have been for a long time, but it hasn't made it any easier tbh.

Everyday it gets easier, but you have to do it everyday.

[Dreymagine]

Everyday it gets easier, but you have to do it everyday.

Yeah, that's true.

And hi Eud!! It's nice to see you around, I thought you were gone 3:

[DogOfDanger]

my goals...
really short term - start exercising regularly & eating better
short term (a year) - switch into web development
medium term (5 years or so) - try & get database, network, and system admin certifications, and follow it up with job experience
long term - work as a cloud engineer for some large company

So I try & wake up early & read for 2-3 hours every day to make these things happen. If I can go the gym too ... I'm doing really well.
No room in there for a relationship, but that is a sacrifice I have chosen to make.

[timber]

I dont share my goals with people, even irl.

I guard them and nourish them and go after them.

Finish this design I've been working on for like 3 days. I'm designing a contemporary building and decorating the interior. I'm pleased so far. I'm currently adding lighting/shadows. I'll more than likely design my own furniture for it as well. I'm thinking of making an entire branding kit out of it, actually, since it's a commercial building...web banner, logo, ad styling, product packaging, signage, and so forth. Maybe some company will hire me on if I make several of these kits and put them in a portfolio.

EDIT:
Or, maybe an LIE will team up with me to do the more Te-like aspects of a business, and we will run away together and have our own successful business of some sort, be rich, get married, have babies, and live happily ever after.

Ok, well, dreaming was fun.

[Disturbed]

Well, i don't know how to be well, so I don't really have any goals.

[godslave]

Waiting in between the axis of time for a life calling. I'm just hoping that by the time life finally decides to call, I will still be able to hear it...

[ContractedCriminalboy]

Earn and save up a lot of money, become an absolute physical specimen, find a way to get myself killed. That's the dream.

[Averroes]

Get in shape, get my own apartment and car, skate more, travel, stop hating myself, and maybe put a baby in someone that I can tolerate for the rest of my life in 3-4 years

[lynn]

Getting rich by winning the lottery.

Writing a fictional world where positive integers interact, with an AI.
The problem is I don't know where to start
How do I find/create an AI who will co-write with me, etc.
This experience is a way for me to learn more about number theory as I suck hard at math
I'm not sure whether or not I can achieve it though

[pasleine]

one for a while has been developing my ability to argue. i have no backbone and people misinterpret me which makes me self conscious about stuff that they made up in their head. i know that "people are just something you have to get used to", but i need to be careful about it because i don't think a person should ever lose their humble side. still, there's a line between humbleness and self-hatred, but there's also a line between self-confidence and egomania.
i would also like to do something really good one day so that maybe i can stop feeling so guilty for taking up space, but IDK what that would be since i change directions so often.

[wanderingsoul]

https://chat.openai.com/

Thanks for the recommendation.

What I'm looking for is an AI who can speculate fictional mathematical possibilities with me.
OpenAI Chatbot specialized in factual information which isn't what I'm hoping for, but it could be useful in different ways. They help me learn where I can find AI developers and that's all.
Nvrmnd, maybe I'm asking for too much.

The AI manages the positive integers, and they live in mathematical peace. However, one day, something happens: an odd looking integer comes into the world of positives and approaches a group of integers. The integers are initially curious, but their curiosity turns into morbid horror when the odd integer touches one of their friends and a forbidden interaction (a "calculation") takes place. Their friend doesn't come out the same. The high positives consider the appearance of the odd integer to be an isolated incident and don't investigate it further.

However, unknown to the high positives, the odd integer (agent negative uno) was actually a sacrificial test agent sent to gauge the world of positives. With the knowledge that their test on the positive world was a success (they were able to delete quantity from integers), they launch their invasion. Thousands of integers descend upon the positives, and through the chaos, a few make it to the high positives and dismantle the head of society.

The positive land becomes an apocalypse of forbidden calculations. It seems that negative numbers weren't meant to interact with positives because the glitches in the system grow greater. Somehow, this leads to the creation of irrational numbers, numbers which snake out of non-existence and tax the server with their sheer length. The AI, the god that the numbers had always worshipped for the creation and maintenance of the world, was dying.

In the end, it's the dying nature of the AI that leads Sergeant 1337 to investigate a world anomaly too big to spawn irrationals. 1337 crawls to the edge of a graphical cliff and looks over at the anomally that spawned and sees nothing but negatives (both literally and metaphorically). However, 1337, through a mix of war experience, sharp thinking, and finely tuned gut instinct, knows that despite being full of negatives, or maybe because it's full of negatives, the situation could actually be positive. And so, he records what he sees and brings the data to his highly intelligent, yet strangely attractive scientist friend 8008.

Basically, after this point, 8008 tells 1337 that there's an alternate server (the dark side of the AI) that spawns negative integers. Apparently, the more errors the AI experiences, the more negatives it spawns on the alternate server. 1337, being a hero, charges into the depths of the alternate server and deletes the core error that causes the dark side to exist. The AI wakes up and despite its lag, starts to purge the alternate universe and the irrational numbers. 1337 thinks he's about to die in the purge, but is saved at the last minute by 404, an integer that appeared apathetic or even traitorous at first. 404 is lost in the alternate server as it finally becomes NULL.

1337 of course goes back civilization to celebrate and sees 8008. Whether they get together at the end is ambiguous (I guess for drama).

[Squirrel]

My goal is still success in high school certificate examination , and admission to a good university branch

I have no other goals now

[adage]

I have one goal for the day, it is to get up and was accomplished.
Such days are nice, nothing to do, no expectation, nothing.

There is something on the horizon tho, and if it comes to fruition, I won't be coming back here at least for a while. A lot of unknown factors are at play, and as always the possibility for changes coming from most ways.

[Aster]

I want to make valentine sugar cookies today. I’ve wanted to for a while now. Let’s see if I can get my butt in gear to do it.

Starting is the hardest part

[rizz]

I have reduced my goals to a billion dollars and total control of the country.

Very interesting plot! But what I had in mind is drastically different from yours ��

[Fluffy Princess Unicorn]

I found another certification I can get. CCTSI: Certified Clinical Trauma Specialist – Individual. Going for it, since I want to specialize in trauma. I'll get it after the CPRS: Certified Peer Recovery Specialist one.

Idk what else I would do if not trauma, honestly. I don't want to go for disorders. I don't want to focus on children. I don't want to deal with medications. I don't have any experience with addiction. I've been dealing with PTSD and trauma all my life, and I recognize ways it can mimic disorder symptoms without actually being them. A lot of psychiatrists out there over-prescribe and misdiagnose because they don't take their time with patients. I'm sure at some point I'll see some poor souls who think they have some disorder and are taking medications while it's actually that they've been abused by narcissists. "yOu hAvE bOrDeRLiNe!" When really, they've just had their personalities erased (which mimics identity disturbance), emotions constantly invalidated (which causes emotional dysregulation), and so forth. I'd like to counsel them to a place where they no longer depend on medications. I'd like to help them with those issues the other doctors out there aren't taking the time to recognize or help with.

[Sol]

Today psychiatry is not good efficient by its methods. It's too symptomatic and surface. "Misdiagnose" is among consequences of initial doubful approach - disorders are described badly, with many intersections and muddy parts, without good objective basis of physical reasons. Side effects of used meds are also harmful.
The main use for today psychiatry is to notice very hard cases of psychoses/IQ defficiency - people which are socially dangerous and to limit problems from them. Secondary - to restore partial work-abbility as by suppressing anxiety and depressive symptoms. All this is not so about good for people themself, but more about good for normal people near. It's not supposed that psychiatrists give much of efforts to help people with disorders - they can a few anyway.

If you want to help people, you'd better watch to psychotherapy and psychology, clinical psychology side, - behavior-cognitive approaches. It's also not far from Socionics.
The one who you know as Gulenko used Socionics as a part of general psychology help. People did not know even about Socionics theory usage by him. He worked as an assistant to his wife with psychology diploma, up to beginning of 2000s and mb later. It's not unusual situation when Jung types are used as a part of general psychologists work. They don't tell about all theories which they use - just try to solve problems by anything they know (psychology of today is not much scientific in general, anyway).

Chemical imbalances are real. Psychiatrists are just too rush-rush about their diagnoses, and that is why people wind up misdiagnosed. That, and some of them are genuinely morons. Many of them do rush jobs simply because they're having to cram a ton of clients into too small windows of time, though.

As someone who's been studying the field for years, and also knows Socionics, I assure you that Socionics is extremely far from real psychology. Socionics sucks and it's fake news, that's why it's a pseudoscience like astrological signs/horoscopes. The only thing Socionics types are determined by is what someone relates to the most, then you've got morons like Alive and nifl going around acting like they know what people relate to better than they know themselves what they relate to, shoving types down peoples' throats as if they actually know these people. Psychology is considered an actual science. Look it up. Educate yourself on topics before you speak on them. I welcome debate on it--by all means, please do challenge me--but you've got to be a worthy foe if you want me to bother with it.

[Fluffy Princess Unicorn]

I want to specialize in helping people who have trauma from narcissism. I want to be narcissists' worst fucking nightmare/enemy. I want to empower their victims, help them recover, strengthen them into soldiers, and make an army rise against these fucks...

[Riven]

I just need to fucking get a 10 on a calculus test before the end of my college course.

Will the universe, or should I say, Macroverse, make the sun stand still, or should I say, the icy core of the Force, activate the mass shadow generator, and plunge existence through the chalice of love that all pain may go away...

[Sol]

plunge existence through the chalice of love that all pain may go away

Pain/suffering is one of 2 kinds of methods which motivate. The other is pleasure. Both influences may lead to the same.
If to "love" relate the intention to keep alive or remove from a harmful way, then a pain would not contradict this (until it pushes to useful).
It's two principles to deal with anything living - pleasure and suffering motivations. Principles known by upringing of children. By common social relations, where exist gifts and punishments.

Pain by nature task is only a kind of motivations for better. The problem can be to where it moves. But a pleasure may move to worse too.

Good, when exist a choice of what to do between these too methods.
From karma idea - it should exist always. But it's not common rational approach.

This is an interesting theory, like building and becoming, spurred on by an alchemy of evil helps us to harness the growing ingredients and experience the fuller spectrum of generation and explosions of progress.

Philosophy is always good.

I like this thread. It gives me inspiration and motivation when I see other people's diverse goals.

[Beautiful sky]

I was accepted to a masters program to complete my degree in counseling psychology so that’s still a life goal

[necrosebud]

I was accepted to a masters program to complete my degree in counseling psychology so that’s still a life goal

What made you wanna do counseling psych? If you don’t mind me asking
like what do you plan on doing with the degree etc

[necrosebud]

My goal is to simply try to go in a more constructive as opposed to self-destructive direction from now on (something I have been doing for well over a decade). And see where that might lead me..

[Beautiful sky]

What made you wanna do counseling psych? If you don’t mind me asking

You can do therapy or counseling at schools or independent organizations.
I prefer to work or guide kids to their career path

thats cool that you wanna help kids. I have a masters in clinical psych and am currently going back to school for further graduate studies. I love talking to kids but I don't like having to deal with the parents/family so much lol
good luck with your career and stuff!

[Bethanyclaire]

I’d like to spend a bit more time looking for new music. I don’t have the patience to do it. Just a bit of time dedicated to it would be useful but I put it off a lot lol
