The 99 Bucket List Items
“All Dreams come true, if you have the courage to pursue them. “
Why 99 Bucket list items? Because 99 is one under a Hundred and if we are not sure about the 99 we can just create another 99 item list, and have two lists under 100. Does that make sense?
A list of Goals, a Bucket List, we all have in our head, however it does help writing down these Goals. It does not matter if they are Career, Travel or Family related. Having them in one place will give you a better overview, of everything that you want to accomplish.
The First time I had really heard of a Bucket List was, when “A Walk to Remember” came out and Shane completed her list, before she sadly passed away. However I though it was amazingly cute. The one thing I got from this was, two be in TWO places at once, since that point I have learned that its possible to be in three and four places at once. So of course I added this.
According to the Websters Dictionary this is the following definition of a Bucket List;
- a list of things one has not done, but wants to before dying.
This is a repost of an earlier post, into a page, an easier and faster way to keep track. get inspired and more your own goals to accomplish in life. Think of things that are possible, as well as things that you may have to work for a little.
As I have had my Bucket List for a while, some of the items have already been crossed off. Before this update the list contained a few less items, but I realized once I sat down that I really did have a lot more goals, things to add to my list and without a problem was able to complete the 99 items.
