Question # 8

Question #8. If I could take a 6 month sabbatical from my job, what would I do? Travel around the world? Perfom good deeds? If I don't have the answers, how can I figure out what my dreams are?

My gosh - I think taking a 6 months sabbatical IS one of my dreams! Really!
I actually plan on taking about 4-6 months off next year. I want to change schools and pursue a career as a Makeup Artist, the program at Aveda is full time for 4 months.
One of my other goals is to save up enough money to be able to pay all my bills and rent for 3 months and enough to travel through Europe - I want to visit England, Ireland, Germany, Sweden, Italy, Spain, France as many as I can in three months. Trav and I talk about that all the time. We share the same two dreams - one is the Europe one - the other is the dream to buy a boat that you can sleep in and live on and sail around the carribean for 6 months.
This is all of course with our magic wallet that produces a crisp $100 bill every time it's opened.
I think this question is designed to get you to think about what you would do if you didn't have anything to do. I imagine some people need the structure and routine of working everyday.
I think I have a frim grasp of my dreams and goals in life. I know that some of these - at this financial point in time - are clearly out of reach. But it's just like thinking about what you would do if you won the lottery - its just fun to dream.
