I Want To Feel More Empowered...NOW
What's On Your Bucket List? Wait, You Don't Have One Yet?
You probably first heard of a "bucket list" (a list of things you want to do before you die) after watching the movie, "The Bucket List" with Jack Nicholson and Morgan Freeman. I thought it was a fantastic movie and one that should inspire you to take advantage of life (while you're still here on planet Earth). Wouldn't it be nice to have your own bucket list?
If you've been putting it off, maybe now is the time to put pen to paper (or use your computer) and start your list. Doing the things you've always wanted to do, but never got around to, can be incredibly fulfilling!
Inspiration for Generating Your Own Bucket List
Let your mind go. Give yourself the freedom to think about all the things you've always dreamed of doing. Then write them down.
Are you ready?
Take a look at these sample bucket list items to find inspiration for your own list of things to fulfill before you "kick the bucket."
- Travel to Tuscany to take cooking lessons.
- Learn how to knit or do woodcarving.
- Re-read, "War and Peace" and "Great Expectations."
- Volunteer for a mission in Haiti.
- Go a whole week without television.
- Take your sister on a surprise trip.
- Go to a musical on Broadway in New York City.
- Give a $50 bill to someone who looks like they need it on Christmas Eve.
- Tell your high school English teacher how he made a major impact on your life.
- Write a letter to a soldier.
- Hike at least part of the Appalachian Trail in the U.S.
- Visit all the state capitals in your country.

- Take those guitar lessons you've always wanted to get around to.
- Walk 2 miles a day five days a week for three months.
- Learn to operate a sailboat and then go sailing.
- Tell your brother he's the best brother in the whole world.
Free yourself to daydream. Include your greatest fantasies. Think about what you've always wanted to do - take trips to your favorite destinations, experience something you've only read about, or accomplish something of substance in your life.

Fulfilling the Items on Your Bucket List
After you've made the list, the only thing to do is go for it. Each week or month, strive to carry out an item on your Bucket List. Then, cross it off your list. You can add to your list as you think of other activities you'd like to do before you're no longer on this earth.
