What are your goals? What are you breathing for? And most importantly, what is your dream?

I have been alive for 19 years, and prior to really finding what I want to do and pursue, I never pushed myself, nor struggled, and gave up when I tasted failiure. I was just breathing, no direction in my sights, just pure waste of space.

My focus is getting into Cancer research after university, and working towards - and finding- a cure and prevention. To save those dying and those others love more than themselves, as well as those no one cares for.

This may come across as arrogant, and may even ruffle a few feathers, but alas is life.

So
What are you moving towards?

What are your dreams? 

(regardless of how absurd they may sound to anyone else, all that matters is that they do not to you)
And who inspires you? (People who have kicked me well up the arse are figures like Arnold Schwazenegger, Johnathan Migan from Team3D and certain motivational speakers.)

I'll never stop wandering, finding what I want to do with my life. I search for a meaning to life, and a way to some kind of progression/improvement.. it's hard to define in words

I take motivation from anything and everything, but most influential to me are themes and people that show me there is more to life than, well, whatever happens to be there for me. I might be obsessed with that.

Today I've spent one of countless days learning and messing with computer graphics. But, I'll get where I want to be... just have to have an ultimate confidence in myself. Part of the learning curve of general self-development and self-awareness is going through all these lessons first hand..

I make all of this, all my problems and the world's problems, part of me. And that's what helps me. Idk what I'm supposed to write anyway, haha.

"Hi Murilo :) I think that understanding the most basic principle of life is the most important factor for a good life. That principle is change. We should all acknowledge that change is part of life, whether it is good change or bad change, and that…"
