101 things to do in life

For several years now I have been completely delighted with the idea of creating a to-do list that I definitely want to try in my life. If anyone does not understand what this is about, I recommend watching the wonderful film "I haven't played in the box yet".

The essence of this plan is simple - create a list of goals, desires, ideas and the craziest dreams that you would like to realize and experiences that you would be interested in going through during the time allotted on Earth.

Why do you need a list

Think about the last few years of your life. A good friend of mine once correctly noted that we identify with our place of work and increasingly say WE - “we bought a quarry in South America”, “we bought 5 helicopters and 10 merciers”, “we increased our revenue by $ 100 million” and so on. But when you go deeper, you realize that no one has traveled further than Ukraine, I saw the helicopter only in the air, and the maximum amount of money that I held in my hands was 1,000 salary dollars.

It's time to understand what is "I"who wants to jump with a parachute, go around the entire globe and do a dozen different nonsense, which it is a shame to tell children about. Think of yourself tired but happy when you accomplished something important. You relive the brightest moments of your life in your head hundreds of hundreds of times. Now imagine that you have a LIST of 100 items and you have vowed to implement about 3-5 items from this list every year. Just think how much happier you will become, how much new you will learn, how the psychological situation in the family will change. It will be just awesome!

What to do in life

Everything is extremely simple and takes no more than 10-15 minutes in one brainstorming session. Personally, I have created a document on my computer desktop in which I write down my dreams and desires at regular intervals. I try to understand what I want and how much this or that occupation will make me happier.

To make it easier for you to create your list, I recommend answering the following questions:

• What would happen if you passed away tomorrow? What is the most important thing you would like to do in this case today?
• What would you do if you had unlimited time, money and resources?
• What countries and places would you like to visit?
• What feelings would you like to experience?
• What moments would you like to witness?
• What is the most important thing on your personal scale of values that you would like to accomplish?
• What craft would you like to learn?
• Who would you like to meet in person?
• What would you like to achieve in different areas of your life (social, family, physical, spiritual)?

Refer to these questions as many times as necessary to form your personal wishlist. Take as long as it takes. Read the list below for further inspiration.
