What if I told you that I knew a way to increase the chances of you living an incredible life by 1000%? Would you believe me?

Well the truth is, I believe I can. It will only take about 30 minutes of your time and you are going to love every minute of it. If you own a journal, get it out. If you don’t then grab a pen and paper. It is very simple. Write at the top…

 

Things I Want To Do In My Life

 

I want you to start making a list of absolutely everything you would like to accomplish in your lifetime. Where do you want to do? What do you want to see? What would you like to happen in your lifetime? When you make this list, don’t think for a second about whatever your current situation is. Think about it this way…

“If time nor money were an object, what would I want to say I did in my lifetime?”

This my friend, is the most important list you will ever make in your entire life. By simply writing down what it is you want to do in your lifetime, the chance of it actually happening skyrockets!

Once your list is complete, believe in your heart of hearts that somehow, someway, you are going to accomplish everything that you wrote down on your list. No matter how crazy or impossible some of them may seem, you are going to find a way to make it a reality.

If you are having trouble getting started, here is a little excerpt of what is on my list. Feel free to add some of these to your own list…

 

1. see a Duke basketball game

2. have courtside seats to a Cleveland Cavaliers game

3. play golf at Pebble Beach

4. see the Hollywood sign and drive on Muhlholland Drive

5. see the Egyptian pyramids

6. visit Hawaii

7. stay at the Bellagio with a water show view

8. meet Tiger Woods

9. go to the Final Four

10. go to the NBA finals

11. go to the Masters

12. visit Italy

13. shoot under par for 18 holes

14. have a house by the ocean

15. see the Eiffel Tower

16. see Stonehenge

17. go to the Grand Canyon

18. meet Ken Evoy (president of Sitesell.com)

19. go snorkeling

20. go on a cruise

21. drive across the Golden Gate Bridge

22. go horseback riding

23. shop at the Mall of America

24. visit Times Square in New York City

25. travel to Mexico

26. see the David

27. see the Sistine Chapel

28. see the Mona Lisa

29. go to Yellowstone National Park

30. go to the Boston Fireworks Show on the 4^th Of July

31. catch a foul ball at a baseball game

32. go water skiing

My list is somewhere in the 100-200 range.. And some of them are going to be extremely difficult to accomplish (do you have Tiger Woods phone number?). But I believe that I will be able to accomplish all of them. I really do.

Keep this list with you for the rest of your life. Take it with you when you are about to accomplish something. For example, if you are going to go to Italy, put a big fat checkmark next to it the second the airplane touches the ground. Write a checkmark with the golf pencil that you have from Pebble Beach.

Do the best you can to accomplish everything on your list. And don’t be afraid to add onto it later. If it’s something you want to do in your life, it should be on your list!

The Most Important Thing About This List

Here is some harsh reality…

There are so many people that look back on their lives with huge regrets. They think back to the things that they though about doing but never did. The places that they wanted to see but never seemed to get around to it. Please…

Do NOT let this happen to you!

Live your life to the absolute fullest. Don’t have any regrets when you look back on your life. If there is something you want to do, go do it! Don’t put it off until tomorrow because it will never happen if you do.

I can’t stress enough how important it is to become a person of action. To live every single day as if it was your last.

You aren’t getting any younger. So the best time to create this list is right this second. Seriously, grab a pen and paper and start making it right now. If you put it off until later, you are going to forget about it and never do it.

If there is something on your list that you can do right now then go do it!

For example, let’s say that one of the things on your list is to write a novel. Well, you obviously have access to a computer because you are reading this. No matter what you tell me, I know you have enough time. With the time it took you to read this article, you could have already had your first paragraph written!

Think right now about something that you have always wanted to do but never did. You always said that you would do it “some other time.” There is never going to be another time. The time is now.

I have all the confidence in the world that you can do anything that you set your mind to. You can start making your dreams a reality faster then you think.

“The journey of a 1000 miles begins with the first step.”

Take your first step today. Right now. Create your list. Make it as big and fulfilling as possible. And go do it. Start living the life that you dreamed of when you were a little kid.

I wish you the best of luck!
