My Mission: (Stolen from the community before_you_go.)
1) Write a letter.
Write a just-in-case letter.
Include things that you want people to know, but just haven't told them yet for one reason or another. Tell them that you love them, hate them, are sorry about something... Make amends with people you've fought with. Anything that you don't want to take to the grave with you but just haven't found the moment to say yet.
2) Write a list.
Write a list of things that you want to do before you die.
Start off with it being for long-term... Then highlight the things you'd for sure do if you knew you'd only live for a week. Put a star beside the things you'd do if you only had 24 hours.
3) Reflect.
What's holding you back?
Why can't or won't you say those things you want to yet? Why haven't you done those things you'd want to do yet?
4) Do them.
If you can't think of a good reason why you haven't said or done those things, do them.
Don't put them off till next year: Look at your calendar and start planning to do them sooner than later. See how many things you can get done in a week, or a month.
5) Challenge your friends.
Give them this same mission.
See how many accept, and what they do. You may have more similarities than you think.
Before you go, be sure you've done all you wanted to. The memories you get from it will be worth it, and when it does come time for you to go, you can look back at the time you've spent and know you've spent it wisely and happily.
