For me, this is an odd question to answer. Everything I wanted 10 years ago, I have. I got a good career doing something I love that pays plenty, bought a nice house in a good neighborhood I love, have plenty of rewarding hobbies to keep me occupied, and as for relationships, I'm getting married next Saturday to a woman that I love and have a ton of fun with.

So now that I have all that, "everything I ever wanted", I'm left asking myself "What's next?" I'm not the type of person to just settle and do the same thing for the rest of my life, and I'm always trying to get to that next step, and for the first time in my life I have no concrete ideas as to what that next step is, and it scares me a bit. My main thing, is I would love to start a business that can support me and my soon-to-be family, and not have to work for someone else the rest of my life. Other than that goal, and a handful of web domains in various stages of development, I'm not really sure what I intend to do. For the first time in my life I don't really have any clear goals, and can't answer the "what's next" question.

So, even if you get everything you want, if you're like me, you'll still be looking for that "what's next". So don't worry about the destinations or the finish lines, enjoy the journey, enjoy the race.
