Happy Challenge (Day 18)

Today’s challenge revolves around the “bucket list.”

Today, I want you to actually write up your bucket list. Write it out by hand or type it up online. Put down EVERYTHING. Want to be an Astronaut? Put it down on paper!

If you dream about it, write it down. This includes things you’ve already done. Especially things you never thought you could do. (Yes, running a mile without wanting to die totally counts) 

Once you get it all down on paper, I want you to organize it several different ways.

1. Put it in the order from most likely to least likely to accomplish
2. Put it in order from your biggest dream to the one you care about the least
3. Put it in order from least expensive to most expensive to complete

Now that you’ve looked at all the things on your bucket list from several different angles and written them 4 times through (hopefully enough times to make you really think about them) I want you to pick one and begin putting plans into motion to complete that item.

I mean it. 

Don’t just think about it. Write down what needs to be done in order to accomplish the dream and start doing it. Maybe it means opening a savings account and setting aside money every week or month. Maybe it means taking a class at night at a local community college. Maybe it means buying a musical instrument or a book on a foreign language. 

Whatever you need to get your plan in motion… today is that day. Nothing is in your way other than your own negative thoughts. Brush them away like sand from your hands: it’s time your bucket list becomes your life story!
