Have You Ever Had to Turn Your Back on a Dream/Goal?

[Kratos94]

I know that we can all be considered winners, as we are here on Sherdog Forums. However, life outside can be difficult sometimes and it can sometimes be too easy to short on something big for our lives; our careers, business and so on. Accepting the fact that something just wont come to fruition is also a tough reality that we must face on the occasion.

As the title asks. Have you ever had to turn your back on something you wanted, or wanted to accomplish so much, but had to just accept that it was never going to work?

It could be courting a partner; having to give up on studies you worked so hard to gain acceptance to? You fell short in making a big sports team or athletic scholarship? declining a dream job?

I just give up on life, how about that?

(Not really but I wanted to be snarky. Don’t @ me)

All my dreams get crushed

I always had low expectations... so not really.

Didn't make the representative basketball team when a teen after two separate tryouts. I was shattered but really I knew I wasn't up to the level, was all good in the end.

Had a dream I would get laid. Turned my back in it and became an incel instead.

I suspect you had to turn your back and still got laid.....................

On topic, I gave up being a pharmacist, never got motivated, and it turns out a lot of schooling dont matter much

Not really, most of my dreams we're unrealistic. No regrets whatsoever.

I was close to giving it all up once.

When they reset the likes I thought my dream of a good post to like ratio was gone forever.

But believing I could fly and continually delivering quality posts that entertain the degenerates and here I am.

Don't give up. Be like water.

Back in 2000/2001 I spent so much time learning how to design/build video games.... Worked with people to build Dota that turned into League of Legends... I exploited MMOs like Dark age of Camelot / WoW

Ended up making more money running bots in Diablo 2 and selling items on Ebay before all the legal shit came down.

You're pissing your life away......

You're pissing your life away......

It was a great relief.

I had a dream once but it was all based on lies and deception....... Nothing good comes of that, so I chopped it off like a gangrenous limb and I haven't looked back.

It wasn't a life worth living like that.........

Chopped off the gangrenous limb and replaced it with something far superior from South America?

Exactly.......

Only trouble is that original limb grew legs and run off into the air vents.......... Now I'm going to have to hunt it down with a flame thrower.....

I'm tired of following my dreams. I'm just going to ask them where they're going and meet up with them later.
