    Wow, that's a crazy big list for being short term. Hopefully you can stick to it.

    Here's mine, maybe 4-5 years:

    -Get BA
    -Start Masters
    -Keep a steady, easy, alright paying part-time job
    -Still be working out
    -Still be meditating every morning
    -Still be PMO-Free (obviously)
    -Be living an apartment with my brother/friend
    -Have some article(s) of writing published (poetry or fiction)
    -Have a girlfriend who loves herself
    -Have two cats (preferably siblings)
    -Have more virtuous friends
    -Travel around Canada some more

    That's all I can really think of. Pretty simply stuff. Maybe I'll add some more later.

    Good luck to everyone on their goals, i have some troubles with short term goals that turn into long term goals, they tend to make me feel as if i am not making progress which leads into relapse so my short term goal list is really short lol

    goals by january 2016
    -stay adult content free
    -stay fap free
    -catch up on my vehicle maintenance
    -finish moving into my home
    -lose 15lbs of my 40lbs weightloss goal ( became less active as my addiction became worse and put on 50lbs from lack of activity)
    -find a form of happiness or joy in my personal life.

    These are my short term goals that i wish to achieve by the new year, i hope all of you can be successful in your goals, and remember if you're like me start off small, every little accomplishment is a building block for bigger and better things, each little accomplishment is a confidence booster.

    Well it seems that with all of these goals that you all have, there won't be any time for PMO, now will there? :p

    We know that successful people are successful on all fronts; they aren't successful solely in one aspect of life but rather they have a true balance. We also know that good habits foster other good habits while bad habits foster other back habits. So we all should (myself included) be wary of small bad habits that lead to more serious bad habits. In order to achieve all of our goals we should do the small things right so that we can lay a firm foundation for the future, whatever that may be :)

    On another note, nobody mentioned any post-death goals, so that is something to think about :p

    One thinking about goals we cannot underestimate the importance of forging ourselves into a personality, so lets rewrite the whole topic by bringing the goals for the next 5 years, not necessarily short term but it's proven to be effective in many areas of life.
    Questions:
    What will your job be like?
    What will your family be like?
    What will your physical appearance be like?
    What will your home be like?
    What will a typical day be like?
    What will you be looking forward to?
    What will your social circle look like?

    Answers:
    - I will do the best that I can to become a big data engineer at IBM.
    - A wife and 2 children.
    - I'll be in a better shape than I'm now , so I can comply with Medical Category 3 of Personnel Licensing and Training Program of Canadian Aviation Regulations.
    - Probably the same house I grew up in. Maybe I'll do some renewing , don't know how much that will cost but hope I'll figure out some budget solution.
    - A typical day will be judged upon satisfaction and pleasure of living that day with no specific aim in mind.
    - Achieving financial success and bying a personal yacht.
    - Successful people.
