If you could write one or two medium-long term specific poker related goals, laminate them, put them on your wall and look at them each day, what would they be?
Please try not to look at other people's answers before you post yours,
if you don't mind using [ spoiler][ /spoiler] to avoid affecting other people that would be awesome.
I am counting on you LP!

make enough money to cash out often to pay for food, booze, presents for family/gf (xmas is coming up too). basically, to pay for everything besides rent/books.
and also to save up ~1800 to go on a nice trip down south once this university yr is over |

eh fuck it. long term goal in poker: have my first 100k year, got close this year but due to circumstances i don't think i'll be able to put in enough volume this year to squeeze it out. (personal reasons)
short term goals. Within this upcoming year or so I'm going to continue trying to put in massive volume at 2/4 and save up money to buy/invest in a small business. Want something more stable and less volatile than poker is as a nice fat side income. Also for upcoming big purchases I want to buy a car. Thinking about the new hyundai genesis coupe. not too spendy and it's got a lot of what i'm looking for in a car now days. |

my goals are just to stay at midstakes for eternity and keep doing what i'm doing. get better at not taking things personally, lose the ego a bit and just try to stay on my A-game more often. if i can do that i'm sure i can be one of the best at 1/2 and very solid at 2/4 |

I want to gain complete financial freedom to do anything I want. Never again have to work 40 hours a week for a job I hate. Never again have to stress over money or bills. I want to live the life I choose and not the life that I must. That's the best description I can think of. Also of course I want to play in the WSOP Main Event, even if it's just once. |

1. Just want to keep learning & keep enjoying the game (it is never going to be a significant source of income easier cash elsewhere and I am not sure I have what it takes).
2. Get better at stopping when I know I am not playing my A game as then 1. is not possible.
