It doesn't have to be some big accolade, but something which you think about and are like "I'd love to have the opportunity to do that".
When I was younger, I used to think that the three biggest accolades were X Factor winner, Nobel Prize, MBE. In that order.
I would quite like to be a ghost singer in a Disney film or something, where I basically do the singing bits and no one knows who it is, so I can be a part of something potentially big that connects with people but also keep anonymity. A bit like with the first High School Musical film, where Zac Efron's voice was blended with Drew Seeley's, as they casted Zac after they'd written the songs, and his voice was a bit deep for most of them.
It's more about doing something for me, rather than just to impress others, although I'd be lying if I was to say I didn't want to prove all the people who think I'm a piece of sh*t completely wrong.

I'd like to help more autistic people find ways to navigate life without all the cluelessness that I experienced growing up.
I'm able to do this for a few at the moment through a local charity but with time I would like to put together something like a Dummies Guide to Being Autistic - full of survival tips, experieices from others and solid, practical advice for life through our eyes.
What I read on here is giving me a lot of ideas on what to add to this.
