• It is always good to have a goal in life…

  Be it short term or long term, a goal in life sets you on the path of
  persistance and focus’ you towards it.  There are many people in
  the world that are ‘driven’ by the simpliest of goals.  I am one
  of them.

  However, it really depends on what
  that goal is.  For me, my goals have never really been about work,
  unless at work.  My goal during the golf season is to break 100. I
  did that last year, five times and even scored an 88 (best ever). 
  But, when it comes to computer games… I get just a little bit
  zealous… almost obsessed… almost.

  World of Warcraft is one such game.  Just when you think that you
  are out, it pullls you back in (thanks Godfather for that phrase)…
  You start out playing, the first 2 hours fly by and BAM! you’re at
  level 10 thinking, ‘Man that was great.. those quests were easy and
  look, I have 2g already…’  By about level 20, you pat yourself
  on the back…. between 30-40 you are thinking… man I better stay out
  of that AH (auction house) to save up my gold to by me a Pony (or
  Mechanical Ostrich, Wolf, Undead Horse, Raptor, or Kodo depending on
  your allegance)… between 40-50, its the principle that you tell
  yourself, I must get to 50, that’s my goal, must get the most exp I
  can….

  But between 50-60 you are just flat out not really caring about quests,
  you just what to attain level 55 and level 60… and for the love of
  Elune and all that is sacred… stay the hell out of the AH.. .I’ve
  made so many bad purchases, like dropping 20g on a pattern that I know
  I’m NOT going to use but I want to be the only tailor on Cenarius to
  have every frickin pattern available.. just like Pokemon, gotta catch
  them all.

  So where was I?

  Ah yes, I have goals.. they just are focused in a different area right now…

  Onto 60

  Vx Out
