Life list
I'm supposed to be packing, as we're leaving for the airport to fly to Chicago in about 7 hours, but I've been meaning to do this for a while and was suddenly struck by the urge to do it now. Nothing motivates like trying to procrastinate on another, less enjoyable task.
I saw the link to this idea on Ali Edwards' blog, and I just fell in love with it. Put simply, make a list of things you want to do in your life. Then start doing them, crossing them off your list. How satisfying to be able to do tangible things that you know will enrich your life! I'm going to keep a list here on my blog and cross off and add things as I do them or feel inspired. This is a great reminder to do the things that are really important.
Off the top of my head:
1. Learn and perform the "Time of My Life" dance from Dirty Dancing with Conrad.
2. Be able to do an unassisted back handspring.
3. Visit Iceland.
4. Take beautiful photographs.
5. Write my two books. (I have two book ideas.)
6. Learn to drive a stick shift.
You should make one. If you do, link to it for me. I like to read about other people's goals.
