Haven't seen the movie (yet), but I wonder if they have to be swashbuckling things like those mentioned or can they have to do with subtle, less dramatic desires? How about

1. achieve inner peace
2. learn to control anger
3. get control of my finances
4. find a new way to help others
5. understand what human life is about
6. add 20 points to my IQ
7. focus my energies better on goals
8. become a better engineer (what I do)
9. overcome laziness
10. improve as a pilot

If they have to be swashbuckling things then I guess I am out of luck, I did a lot of that in my twenties and sort of had my fill.

I'm Catholic and I don't know what the "Pope's Vault" is...did I miss something??

Good list though.

Generically, mine would include:

A whole bunch of family goals
A whole bunch of adventure goals
A whole bunch of faith-based goals
