What's On Your Life List?
At just 15 years old, John Goddard sat down and made a list.
He called it his Life List.
On it, he wrote all the things he wanted to achieve in his life. All in all, he totalled a fantastic 127 things he wanted to achieve or experience.
Among his goals were: Climb Mount Everest... Run a mile in under five minutes... Circumnavigate the globe... Land on and take off from an aircraft carrier... and many others along the same line.
In fact, you can view John's entire Life List here.
The interesting thing?
John has achieved an awesome 109 of his life goals -- and is still working on the rest.
His daring challenges have meant he's faced death once or twice. Yet he continues to strive for, and achieve his dreams.
And so my question to you today is...
What's on your Life List?
Not everything John aimed for was big and daring. One goal was to visit a movie studio. Another was to live to see the 21st century. Another was to marry and have kids.
He built his own telescope. Wrote a book. Learned to play the violin. Discovered how to type at 50 words per minute.
I'm willing to bet that goals like this could REALLY spice up your life right now. They could add a little extra zest. Inject a little needed enthusiasm. It's one of those kinda things I just love to do.
So think about it...
Could you take five minutes out today... And write your own Life List?
You don't need to be 15 years old to get started. Right now is just perfect.
Enjoy -- And once you've finished, make some exciting plans to begin achieving those goals over the next few years! :)
