A compilation of tasks to complete before you die. That is the definition of a Bucket List in a capsule. I place a high amount of value in developing such a list and equal importance in maintaining such a list. It is recommended to do this for yourself, because as you grow and change the items on your list should be crossed off and replaced with fresh challenges.
I did not begin to develop a list of to-dos for myself simply because of a movie with Jack Nicholson and Morgan Freeman. I began to create a Bucket List for myself because I was 21, in college, and had a hard time gauging my trajectory into the future. It's hard to chart a course when you have no destination, you may as well begin to let the currents take you.
As you will see below, I have written some of the items currently on my personal bucket list.
- Write a Fiction Novel and have it be published.
- Write a Non-Fiction book and have it published.
- Backpack the Himalayas.
- Explore my own future and potential.
- Be proud of myself.
- Have my own family and love them immensely.
- Talk with God on a mountain at least once a year.
- Contribute positive energy and influence on the world around me.
- Be a great professional.
- Live as a good man should.
I can guarantee there more items on that list. There are some items I will not list because of how cliche they are or how personal they are. For instance, I have one that is more of a hope and a wish, however, it is very personal and will only admit I wished for it once it happens.
What do you want to achieve in time? What tops the list? Which are things you purely wish for?
