Ever had your dream(s) crushed?

[MaureenCretis]

Learning to stop having dreams and aspirations is an important part of transitioning from child to adult. Aspiration and hope only leads to disappointment, only the pessimist can ever truly be at peace.

That sounds terrible.
































But I have no argument against it.

I read in a book recently, "live at your edge, but know where your edge is".

Push yourself, go outside your comfort level, but know your limits as well.

Yes.

One door shuts, another opens. Keep your head up and pursue the next goal.

like a hemorrhoid
I'm left feeling so annoyed
my dreams are destroyed

 

[Peteyandjia]

Have I ever been alive? Yes.

Who wrote that book? Some cunt that's never had a real job, I suspect.

Stop doing drugs and choosing shitty goals.

Fighter and cop? You wanna get CTE, fucked over by the UFC, or harrass minorities?
Sorry about the motorcycle accident, but do the best you can for your health and mobility.

Start shifting towards wanking to BBW porn as your drug of choice (granny BBW if needed), and look into a career that'll give meaning to your life in something other than fulfilling a boyish fantasy.

There I said it.....

When I got out of college, I go no offer from all the companies I interviewed. But then I got this opportunity to make a shit load of money out of nowhere, and my own facking parents screw it up.

To this day, I think about that fateful day. I am so angry I fantasize about no being there when my idiot parents are living their final days. I want them to feel just as bad as I do. I want them to be alone when they die.

You can't expect your parents to let you buy drugs bro.

I'm having my dreams crushed right now by California's prop64

Been growing medical cannabis for the dispensaries here since 2008, and I just finally put a down payment on my own farm this year after 10years of renting and saving, and now they are "restructuring" the market so I will not be able to sell my crop legally anymore.

I'm 6'2 , I wasnt born to be a point guard

Not sure if you were born to be a sherdogger with that height. Based on sherdog math, the standard sherbro dwarfs you by an inch. I hope you're benching upwards of 275... at least like 280 to make up for the small stature*.

*Not that there's anything wrong with small stature**



** Except here on sherdog.

I was diagnosed with Ulcerative colitis when I was 18 and lived through hell for 6 years until I had my entire large intestine removed. Finally got into shape after all those years only to tear rotator cuff on both shoulders and patella femoral syndrome on both knees. I have bad eye sight. I lost my hair when I was 18 and my dad was a punk growing up. Had a very nomadic childhood and dropped out of college twice to amass 30k (gbp ) debt. On top of all that I'm a manlet at 5"8.

Have my dreams been crushed? Hell no, I fight everyday and everyday is a blessing. It's all subjective. Change your way of thinking, pussies.

Have you spoken to shattered @dream

I’m surprised no one has mentioned women in this thread yet.

 

[FierceRedBelt]

I've never really had a specific career related dream. I prefer to work on interesting and challenging projects but nothing specific.

I've always felt that pro-fighters outside of the spectacle level athletes were being exploited and that combat sport practice should be organized far more like wrestling, sambo, and judo are in Russia.

I've had a young lady dash my plans a few times. Does that count?

 

[DariusTheGreat]

I'm pretty sure everyone had some sort of dream relating to professional sports. We all tend to grow out of it so it's not that big of a deal. Health is the most important thing in my opinion because without it life is a living hell. As long as your healthy, you can still do a lot with your life.

Well shit.

Always wanted to load up some surfboards and just cruise the west coast of Mexico all the way down. 3 months? 6? Didn't care as long as surf...sand...suds..senoritas...were happening. That was long long ago dream. Still never too late although who knows about the violence...both in Mexico and from my wife if I were to tell her I'm going..lol
