What realistic ambition do you have, that you mean to achieve at some point in your life?

Mine is to skydive, and also to learn to fly (in a plane).

    I honestly dont think i have any .... is that sad ???

    I have recently made a move to the country, which is something i always wanted to do, and i jacked in the job i had in the City and now have a more relaxing local job - so this year has been momentous.

    All i want out of life is to be happy, health and continue to have the love of my husband :o

    To do an honest day's work without drifting off into DS and MSN every 5 mins... no, wait, sorry - that's totally unachievable.

    Me, too. I wanted a house by the sea and we've managed to achieve that. I'd just like to be healthy and happy with my OH.

    I've always wanted to do one of those PADDY courses and go diving.. but never bothered.

    I'd love to go sky diving as well :)

    I want to travel all over the world. New Zealand, New York, Hawaii, all those lovely places. And maybe go back packing or something as well (only if there's nothing that can lay eggs in my head).

    One day I'd like to have children. I'd take them to Disney World, and Lapland at Christmas.

    My biggest ambition is just to be really, really good at everthing I do and be the best that I can be :)

    The only barrier between me and my ambition is money....money and time....the two barriers between me and my ambition are money and time and being bothered....the three barriers are money, time and being bothered...

    I'd like to see a taping of The Late Show, be able to buy a small, cheap house in need of a lot of work and do it up over a few years. I can do some stuff, but I'd love to go on a plastering course and then do it myself etc.

    You don't want to go to space? Or see a film you've never caught yet? Or eat a certain dish? Or anything?

    I can't even imagine not having something that I want to do!

    I still harbour an ambition to be lead guitarist in The Clash and marry Joe Strummer - think I can cross both of those off my list now :(

    Other than that, I don't really have any major amibitions, just to, hopefully, carry on in the happy place I seem to be in my life at the moment.

    Oh, being able to cook something someone would actually want to eat would be pretty nice :)

    Oh yes, I intend to own my own horse at some point too. I've ridden and looked after horses through out my life, but have never had my own.

    At the age of 13 I set myself my ambitions.
    Firstly I satisfied my dad he wanted me to do an apprentiship as an electrician, so I did it, when I presented him with the papers he patted me on the head and said `Well Done`.
    I then announced that I would now be doing the job I really want to do `To work in Television`this I did all my life, I never got a pat on the head for it, I did`nt need it.
    It took me everywhere in the world, I saw everything, did everything, met everyone and had the time of my life and, I ended up with my own production company.
    I have retired now, I am happy that all my ambitions have been fulfilled, I have money to spend and still travel.
    I firmly beleave that "Anyone Can Do Anything If They Really want".
    Its been a wonderful life and continues.
