I am talking non work related...not getting married, or anything that involves anyone but you.

Right now, mine is simple....dropping a bunch of weight so I feel better health wise and energy wise.


Nothing earth shattering like beating cancer, but I will take it lol

Mine all involve someone else be it coaching or parenting....so mine I guess is just having a 4.0 while earning my master's degree.....either that or graduating college owing no money due to 40-50 hour work weeks while going full-time to college, with a kid.
