What's On Your Bucket List?
When the term "bucket list' became a popular phrase, I renamed my list of short-term and long-term goals. You guessed it. The new name became the bucket list.
My bucket list is what keeps my life interesting! As I move forwarding accomplishing my wants and desires, I often add another item to that list. I once read (online) that when you create your list, it should contain 101 things. That sounds like a big order! I still don't have 101 things on my list, but I do add new things pretty regularly.
My list started with the things I wished for as a teenager. I dreamed many times of an African Safari during my high school years. At age 15, I became obsessed with parachuting. These are two of the wants I have yet to achieve, and two that still remain on my bucket list.
My bucket list still has a long way to go. Here's a few things from the list I wish to accomplish:
- An Alaskan cruise and tour
- Complete the Columbus Coffee Trail
- Learn to belly dance
- Hold a tiger or lion cub
- Launch another successful business
- Hot air balloon ride
- Bring the idea of an invention to life (I have specific in mind)
- Complete the book I'm writing
- Learn a new craft
- Participate in the DooDah Parade
I've been fortunate enough to accomplish quite a few things on my bucket list.
Here's 10 things I have been able to cross-off:
- Vacation on a cruise ship (that becomes addicting!)
- Volunteer work - I've done various types since age 14 and still continue to contribute to various causes
- Buy a red Jeep Wrangler. I was so thrilled with my Jeep, I actually name it.
- Kayaking and Canoeing
- Obtain a degree
- Plant a vegetable garden
- Catch a fish - caught several all in one day once I got the hang of it
- Build a house
- Visit the Grand Canyon National Park
- Start a business. I actually started two successful businesses over the years.
What's on your bucket list? I'm curious, so please leave a comment!
