Free Essays on Future

The future for me is a very vague subject to discuss because I don't tend to think of the future as something that can be planned for but rather as something that I can only attempt to improve. Based on this main belief I tend to take life one-step at a time and that is one of my biggest flaws. This shortsighted way of thinking undermines my attitude towards planning and limits my chances of achieving my goals in life. My main goal in life educationally are to get into either Engineering or Computer Science and graduate from any decent college, my vision of my future is rather shrouded and obscured by the many obstacles that are in my way. The thing that I hate most about the future is that it is undefined and so I have to try as hard as I can to make sure that the best possible future is the outcome of my labors. I will have to meet many educational prerequisites to attain what I want in life but more importantly I will also have to meet many spiritual prerequisites, I find that preparing myself for the future is very tough because it's not methodical and so I have to attempt to not only alter my mathematical way of thinking but also be more prepared for the uncertainties that I will have to face during my everyday life. The reason I am so resentful of the future and it's uncertainties is because these uncertainties are the very nature of any diplomatic life and ever since I was born I have bee n exposed and forced to tolerate them. What I do with my future is therefore going to me greatly influenced by my childhood experiences and I find that I would much rather have a reasonably predictable and stable life as apposed to the impetuous life that I lead with my family at the moment. I want to achieve a lot of things in the future and I know that most of them will probably never come true because the future is an "unreliable backstabber" as the famous Arabic saying goes and so I must learn to live with it and remember only all th...

Free Essays on Future It was ten o’clock on an average Monday morning. I had nothing planned for the day. My day off, Chris is at school and my wife Jackie is at work. Going to sit on the couch and watch football all day. Thinking of these great thoughts, it was interrupted by a ringing. Damn, the phone rang, I picked it up and it was Jim. Jim is my assistant manager at my auto shop down on the main strip of town. â€Å"Hello† â€Å"Hey this is Jim, what are you up to?† â€Å"Nothing, what can I do for you?† I asked him. â€Å"I was just wondering if it would be possible for you to cover my shift today.† â€Å"Yeah, I can do that. What is the occasion?† I asked him. â€Å"It is my birthday and my friends have something planned for me today† â€Å"oh† â€Å"Alright, I will be in today. See you later.† â€Å"Bye† I drag myself out of bed and stumble to the bathroom. Get into the shower to begin getting ready for work. Get out of the shower and start getting ready for work. I get dressed and then head to the bathroom again to brush my teeth and comb my hair. Feeling hungry I start to the kitchen, thinking of what I am going to make myself for breakfast, the phone rings. I pick up the phone, â€Å"Hello† â€Å"Hi it is me, what are you up to today?† My wife says. â€Å"I just got called into work† â€Å"How late do you have to work?† she replies. â€Å"Until about eight or eight thirty. You are going to have to pick up Chris from school on your way home from school.† â€Å"Okay, I will see you when you get home tonight.† Back to my mission, I head for the kitchen, starving. Open the cupboard, willing to eat anything. Grabbing the box of Cinnamon Toast Crunch, my mouth starts to water. I get the milk and spoon and prepare the bowl of cereal. After I finish eating it is about Eleven Twenty in the morning. Throw my bowl in the dish washer, grab my keys and head out the door for work. Get into my new lime green Toyot...
