I just read some of the other answers here, and it's sad to read that some have not much to say and sound abject as to whether they will accomplish or not. We each have so much to give, accomplish and achieve. Every human being should appreciate who they are and realize the potential to change the things they don't like. I met many obstacles so far in my life. Loss of a mother at an early age, living with an abusive step-mother, not being able to afford the right education, almost losing my husband to cancer, having a child born with a birth defect, and most recently, losing a beloved sister to cancer. The list goes on, but what I have accomplished, and continue to accomplish, as the major focus of my life, is the search for the answer to the truth to existence. And the answer always is that seeing life from a positive perspective is the secret to a life that's full, meaningful and to never stop seeking. Life can always be made better.You get so much more than sitting in a corner saying "woe is me". That'll never solve anything! So I guess I'd say my accomplishment in life is "insight" and I never stop seeking truth, knowledge and understanding. I couldn't live any other way!

Gotten out of bed every day under my own power (most of the time, anyway). Haven't lost a major body part. Rode Mary's Loop with an eagle. Spat in the Mississippi. Watched the sun rise from atop Emory Peak. Crossed the Rockies on a motorcycle. Put five rounds, 1/8" center to center, at 100 yards. Woke up to coyotes singing at 2am in the Chihuahuan Desert. And basically lived.

Great question!
I have given birth to three beautiful boys, and gotten us away from an abusive husband/father. Not only did I manage to escape with the children, I have been able to provide a stable, healthy home for my sons and watch them thrive in the gifted program at school.
I have escaped from an abusive marriage and rebuilt my business to the point that I am financially independant, not having to rely on anyone (the exhusband, social services, welfare etc) to support us.
I have learned to play some of the world's most beautiful music on the piano, and am now learning to play the flute.
I have received international recognition in my career.

Birth.only...As any other on this planet.... Assumed accomplishments will be reviewed after cycle of given life time will be complete..and we become less narrow with our abilities to understand things.Otherwise do we really know what is good and what is evil?How many times we doing seemingly good but there is those whom is not really happy with it?

Not enough; but like all your other answerers i have been
taught in our time of Darwin-ism; so i would say this, even
though it strikes me,occasionally, as silly and as foolish as
what a lot of folks did,all those years before our great and
best teacher Darwin. (i do not want to deride his brilliant
work; just our inability and present incapability to advance
a better and less savage theory(!)).

Mostly being there to loan people money. Lots and lots of money that I don't get back about half the time. Oh well, say la vie.
