Yourself in 5 years

Ever since i was a kid i hated the idea of being mediocre. What a daunting idea, to life a mediocre life where i slave my life and time in change for survival needs and have some fun every now and then. Ofcourse, im better that billions of people and i appreciate that really, but i always imagined myself being that charming movie character who is so warm gets all the girls, and can do virtually anything. As a kid i grew up admiring that character, thinking that theyre just born with it or that theyre born with it to compensate for some major flaw. However, as i grew older i realized, no one is born with it. "It" being the wealth, the knowledge, the talent, the charm all combined into a perfect character. I realized that these characters are based on real life people, ofcourse polished versions, but nevertheless i realized that these real life people worked and worked their asses off to get to where they are. I also realized that the definition of working your ass off isnt staying up one night, or even one year until the sun comes up. Its working every day, every single day to be a little bit better that before. As the days, months and years pass youll find yourself in a position where you can reap the benefits of your work.

A really simple and common example is a youtube comment i just saw. I was browsing the skyrim soundtrack, and a youtuber said " at minute XX:XX i never heard that song before and i played Skryim for 800+ hours" Another youtuber replied " you couldve learned a real money making skill"
how true! Instead of all the time on tvs and online we could learn several skills. I feel like most of us, including me, just do the bare minimum of responsibilities that are set on us by the expectations and norms of society - for example an 18 year old going to college to get a job later. And once we finish the bare minimum work we just indulge in all sorts of distractions that take hundreds of hours yet do not benefit us. If we just adjust ourselves to indulge into distractions that take hundreds of hours but DO benefit us then we grow and improve. However to do this we must start DOING and stop thinking about it.

For me i always saw myself as a/having
great programmer
a great body that is toned and big
a successful business owner
acting with utter confidence
having loads of experience
great with women
knowing a great deal about social interactions and psychology and being very social

adding to this list mastering a engineering drawing program since i was told it widens my job opportunities
and meditation and journaling

so in 5 years i see myself as a
great programmer with at least one mobile app in the store
having a great body im proud of
generating my own money
have tried all sorts of things im curious about
being confident and not self conscious
being great with women
have a big social circle that loves me

i want to know where you see yourself in five years. DO NOT COMPROMISE SAY THE WILDEST DREAMS
