Question

Do you have any preconceived notions of how your life should turn out?

Answer 1

A little. But I like to think I live in the now, and thats what I think about. One step, one breath, one day at a time. Enjoy life, and dont stress. Think about your future, but don't let it take over your life. =]

Answer 2

yes but i mean life changes so much as it goes on especially if you are still fairly young.

so yes i do, but all the ones i have had in the past have pretty much been wrong. at least the really important ones like finishing college on time.  

Answer 3

Yeah, Sh***y.

Answer 4

yes, and its only somewhat turned out like that

Answer 5

yes . i think that you create  your own destiny. and when you plan on something to happen in your life you have to work on it to let it happen.so you have the idea of what's going to turn up from your actions.

Answer 6

Life is 100% what you make it. You can have preconceived notions, but if they come to be true it is because you believed them to the point of ensuring that they happen. We chose to be miserable or happy ... sad or glad ... up or down.

When you hear those heartwarming stories of people who were born into the worst possible situations yet still come out okay we see some proof that preconceived notions have nothing to do with it. Our attitudes and the way we chose to handle things are far greater predictors of how our lives will turn out and/or what we will become in the end.

Rather than focusing on "I think my life is going to turn out like this ..." It would be far more beneficial to take the actions and carry the attitude that our lives are going to turn out exactly the way we want them too because in the end ... it really is our choices that create our reality. .

Peace ... to you.

Answer 10

Considering how much alcohol I consume and how unhealthy I eat I think it will end faster than having the chance of turning out how I wanted.

I guess I assume I'll get married and have kids and get a good job, but me just wanting it doesn't mean it will happen.
