I Want To See All The Countries In The World And Learn All The Languages. I Want To Have Thousands Of Friends And I Want All My Friends To Be Different. I Want To Play Six Instruments. I Want To Be The Best In The World At Two Things. I Want To Be A Great Athlete And I Want To Be A Great Surgeon. I Need To Practice Very Hard Every Day. I Need To Sleep As Little As Possible. I Need To Read At Least One Major Book Every Week. And I Need To Remember That My Seventy Years Are Going To Go By Too Quickly.
