Bucket Lists

People talk about bucket lists, it is my experience that being young some people don't think about the future goals in their life.  They tend to have the "I have lots of time to do that" thought process in life.  I am guilty of this myself even with the health challenges I face in my life.  But as I grow older and not being so old even now as I write this I have found myself looking back more on my past and contemplating where I would like to see my future go.

  Looking back is a good thing as long as you don't find yourself getting stuck there.  Be grateful for everything that has happened to you in your past, the good and the bad.  You wouldn't be who your are today if they didn't happen.  If you are unhappy with where you are today, well it is today and you can make a stand to make the rest of your life the best of your life.

Time to start contemplating, write a bucket list.  Look at your life as tomorrow may never come and if you were to die today would you have any regrets?  Is there anything you would think you would love to do.  Perhaps places you'd like to visit, a job you wish you had, a business you wish you started, perhaps an idea you'd like to see come to life.  Your goals are only limited by your imagination and the limits you put on yourself.  Dream big and go for those dreams like you are dreaming and have nothing to lose.  But do them while you are awake.  Follow life as a child who is learning  for the first time.  Try new foods, talk to new people, meet people you always wanted to meet.  Enjoy life like you won't get another.

Write those goals and start checking them off and when your time comes you will be full and happy and even leave a legacy behind.  Live your lives and only look back to keep in check where you are going forward.

Spend everyday like it could be your last

Something I have thought about at times that seem hard to push forward.  We all have those days where it just seems tough and we start thinking about other things and losing track of our goals.  Maybe to the point of procrastination towards your goals.

Try keeping this in mind on those days... If I was to leave this world today would I be happy with the life I have lead?  Have I accomplished all that I could?  Have you left a positive mark on the world?  Perhaps given more then you have received?  How about done some things that you never thought you could do that once you accomplished then felt so awesome and energizing and left others feeling the same way that you couldn't express the feeling enough?

Ask yourself are you happy where you're at right now?  What are you doing to change it and make it better if you are not?  Or even if you are happy what are you doing to make your life even better ? Are you striving for more? Pushing for more?  Or are you settling?  Everyday we choose to settle is another day we hold ourselves back from our true potential.

Keep those goals close my friends,  write them everywhere.  Review them daily and tell yourself it's possible to accomplish them and that you deserve it!  Soon you will be there I know it!
