What would you like to achieve during your life long journey, as a powerlifter?

Well, I'll start off by waxing philosophical. My lifelong journey as a powerlifter would be complete if we could get the sport to the point that it is respected by the masses.
My goals as a lifter are a little more concrete.
I'd like to total 1300 @ 165.
I'd like to total 1400 @ 181.
I'd like to be healthy when I stop competing.
I'd like to get into promotion, especially of the drug-free variety, in high schools, etc.
And someday, I'd like to once again have a competition bench over 310. :')
Most importantly, when I leave a meet, I'd like to be able to say each and every time that I planted, watered, or saw the increase.
God BLess.
Doug

Good Question Tony.
I use to care about nothing but about my future and a lot of that was due to pride. In the last year, I have changed my outlook on a lot of things. I would love to continue to compete, but not at the expense of God or family. Powerllifting has moved down to about 3 or 4 now. Here are some goals of mine.
Continue to spread the gospel through lifting
Promote Drug Free Lifting to the Youth/Adults
Help bring new folks into the sport
On my personal lifting
total 2000 in single ply meet
lift in a double ply meet, feel I have been called to do so.
Lift in a full power raw meet again
All of this is if my back holds up, if not...it will be time to give it all up and go fishing! LOL

I'd like to break 1250 - 1300 in the 165raw class and break 330 bench also in the 165 raw class. I'd also like to hit 365 when and if I move to 181 full time.

600 raw drug free and single ply as a master competator. Maybe 242 class........someday.
Maybe I can just introduce somebody that is younger and better to the sport and they can do it for me.
