One article that I found interesting and wanted to share about creating your own list is asking yourself the below questions:
- If you had a year left to live, what would you do, who would you take with you…?
- If you won the lottery, where would you go what would you do…?
- What did you always want to do when you were a child…?
- If you were on your deathbed, what would you most regret not having done…?
- If you had an upcoming high school reunion, what would you like to be able to tell your former classmates you’ve accomplished
- What do you need to have more of in your life
- Who do you admire and why…?
- Your sitting with your grandchildren on your lap and telling them about your travels, what stories are you telling them…?
- You’ve died and are listening to your eulogy, what are your friends and loved ones saying about you.
- If a Genie granted your 3 wishes, what would you ask for…?
- What do you want to Be, Do or Have…?
- Where do you want to go…?
- Who do you want to spend your time with in your life, negative people or positive people that you like, trust, respect and that make you happy…?
I really like some of these questions but one thing I noticed about myself and my "Safe" choices is that it always deals with one underlying thing.
$$$-Dinero. This is especially evident by my career choice as my field is not something anyone really truly enjoys....but you get paid.
Just to Ponder:
How much different would our lives be without worrying about money & stuff? How much of this is ingrained into us as kids that as adults our actions are based on our adolescent feelings about money.
