imagine that there were no limits; now, what makes you feel alive? If you have free time on your hands, how do you want to send it? (again, if you had no limitations). If you can't think of something now, then what did you dream about as a child?
When I worked in film, our studio had a constant stream of celebrity visitors. I met presidents and dignitaries, rock stars and academy award winners, TV stars and playwrights. Most of them weren't any smarter, talented, or even more charming than anyone I've known over the years, but all of them seemed to have drive and ambition that never wavered. Combine that with knowing the right people, or being at the right place at the right time, and there they were!
I've found what I want, but not my place. I haven't had enough drive, courage, etc. to make it happen-but personally I'm sick and tired of feeling dead inside, and that's why I posed the question. I knew that others had succeeded here and might be able to point the rest of us in the right direction, or they might feel as you and I do, and just need a KICK to get off their arse and do something with their lives before all that's left are regrets for what was not even attempted. Everyone has a dream, but fear of disappointment and failure smother most of them. I'm old enough to regret the things I haven't done more than those I have, so it's time to make use of what time is left, before those regrets are with me forever!
