If oneday an achievement of mine will be great, I hope it is the achievement of finding a cure for Cancer. Any sort of cancer will do fine for me, I'm not picky, but I do have standards. If my goal was too lofty and I aimed for, say, breast cancer then I would instantly be barraged by all kinds of charities and activist groups, thus preventing me from moving on to less important things. To tackle stomach cancer sounds more promising and less gimmicky. To achieve such an achievement, first I should go to college and study pharmacy, with a major in botanical chemistry. After grad school, I will live in the Amazon rainforest without telling anyone so they can't take my idea, not to mention it will be so much more dramatic if I just show up back in the states with a cure for stomach cancer after being missing for a couple years. But while I'm there, I will be testing any plant, which hasn't already been featured in National Geographic, for medicinal qualities and asking myself deep introspective questions. Once my great discovery has been revealed to the world, I will surely be internationally famous and viewable in loads of magazines and textbooks. The medicine I harvest will probably go into mass production earning me mountains of cash (which is not in any way part of my goal). When every other field scientist in the world flocks to the Amazon to re-invent my wheel, deforestation will end, the South American economy will be stabalized, and everyone will be happy for all of the amzing advances being made and the world will be at peace. But the real achievement of my life will be when I am elected the supreme ruler of the world before retiring at age 35 and living in peace on my state-of-the-art space station.
