What's a bucket list? I think I get the gyst of it, but specifically, is it a list of things one will be doing or is it a list of wishes if one could wish for anything in the world?
I know there is a movie that spawned the term, but I've never seen it.
It's a list of things you want to do before you kick the bucket.
Good list! I might have to steal a couple of these for mine.
But is it a list of things that "would be nice" to do or is it a list one is committing to do? Is a bucket list what they are currently focusing their energies on?
Maybe I'm making this harder than it is.
(My word verification is "hashimed". That sounds significant.)
Adhis, I did some of both. All are stuff I really would like to happen in my lifetime. By writing them down, perhaps I will live a life that will open up those opportunities if I am aware of what goals I wanted to achieve. I feel that all of mine are pretty doable. Yes, they require money and time and focus :)
They simply require intent and desire while in the field of pure potentiality. The trick is getting into the field and staying consistently in it. :)
