It is quite fun exercise to do. Be careful not to slip into fantasy daydreaming, but at the same time, aim high and reach for the stars (I wonder how fine the line is between ambition and fantasy?). I think this activity is productive when you aim for the things you feel drawn to most. Thanks Greg. It is quite fun exercise to do.

A self-help guy called Steve Pavlina, if I remember correctly, actually wrote an article about realizing your dreams by writing down what you want to be or be doing in exactly 5 years' time. I don't really remember what the idea behind it was, but it seems to be similar to what I'm doing here. If one makes a profile in the present tense even without it being currently realized, one can italicize the unfinished parts and un-italicize them once they're achieved. A nice alternative to writing lists and ticking them off. Thanks.

It will serve to put the Universe in motion to achieve that which you desire. Remember, you can modify this as you go and make changes to it as you make changes to what you desire. Great job!
