"If you had ten million dollars, what would you do with your life? What would change? What would stay the same?"I didn't even have to think about my answer. I immediately wrote down that I would:
- Pay off my student loan debt and my boyfriend's student loan debt
- Start trust funds for my nephews and cousins who are under the age of 18
- Found an all-boys' middle and high school
- Found a holistic wellness center that offers mental health counseling, acupuncture and yoga
- Travel
- Finish my MSW degree
My professor than told us that what we wrote down is what we should be doing with our lives right now.
I felt great when she said that, because founding a wellness center is one of my social work career goals (the other is to be a therapist for college students on a college campus). I feel like I'm on the right track to actualize my goals. This exercise was a nice reality check.
However, my professor said that just because you write something down doesn't mean it's going to come true. But it can point you in the direction that your life should go.
What would you do if you came into ten million dollars? So, what should you be doing right now?
