Oddly enough, that isn't even the point I was trying to make there - I was referring to other, more "pressing" things.
Things that people tend to push off because 'there's always time for it later.'
Figure out what I mean yet?
I am, of course, talking about bucket lists! Even if not everyone has a true, written out bucket list, they at least have a few things that qualify....things they want to accomplish before they kick the bucket. It's a universal concept....needing to fulfill dreams before dying - however one feels they would achieve that ambiguous concept...
So...I guess I can start with a few tips for actually making a bucket list if you don't yet have one.
1. Start small - not everything on your list needs to be insanely expensive, time-consuming, or complicated. Even the little things matter - it is the little things that define us, after all.
2. Write it down - we've all had those moments where a great idea hits us in the face, but is soon forgotten. If you make a tangible list for each item when you first think of it, that sad moment won't happen to you.
3. Think outside the box - some of the best goals you complete may end up being the most random! If it seems crazy, DEFINITELY write it down.
4. Read other people's lists - I'll admit it, my own list is pretty short right now, cause I've just gotten stuck on ideas. By reading other's lists, you can get a fresh perspective, and while not necessarily taking their goals as your own, be inspired to find more for yourself.
There are tons of other tips out there, but these are the ones that have stuck out to me the most.
Now, the hard part....actually completing your list. No matter how big, scary, and daunting it seems to you, you can't be afraid to start crossing things off. You've gotta start somewhere, they shouldn't all be difficult, and you do have a lifetime to complete it. Start with the smaller items, (but don't do them all right away) and maybe the ones you'd rather not do at 60. Life is a crazy journey and you never know what items you may run into on a 'regular' day.
I would be a terrible person for writing about bucket lists and not telling at least a couple of what's on my own...so here's a few:
#3 Visit Italy
#8 Go to ComicCon
#15 Go on a cruise
#26 Write a book
#30 Attend a red carpet event
My list isn't too extensive yet, but I have so much time to add on to it.
And you've got so much time for your list too! So get out there and do it! Finish that list before you kick the bucket so you can kick it hard!!!
MUCH LOVE <3
