100 things to do in my lifetime.
I always think to myself that too many people go about life without really thinking about what they REALLY want to get out of it. They say that they want this and that, but they dont ever really go for it. They might say, "I want to be rich one day"- but never work any harder or smarter. I want to have a better relationship with my family- but dont put in the time and effort.
I am a strong believer that if you want something out of life, you have to put a plan together and go for it. I think it was Einstein who said the definition of insanity is doing the same things over and over again, but expecting different results. I had some time last night to myself and I decided that I needed to put together a list of things that I want to get done in my lifetime. I spent over 3 hours working on this list last night. I had actually started the list over 3 years ago, but decided that it needed some revisiting.
Below are the 100 things I want to do/experience in my life before I die. I am shy of 100, as I am sure that there are going to be things that I will think of later.
