“‘Semi-retire’ for a year (a la Tim Ferriss) to give myself time to do all of the above.”

Not a bad idea there! Some of the items on my list are;
1. Successfully start my own business
2. Successfully start another 1-2 businesses (including at least one offline business)
3. Live in a 3rd world country where I can teach people to start their own businesses

Right now I’m still a wage-slave, but I’m working on it!

Nice list Chris,
Here’s Mine.
1. Learn to Play the guitar, and play ‘Hotel California’ to my wife.
2. Earn enough money to make my daughter study at Harvard.
3. Buy my own apartment..
….
Hey I think this is good stuff to write in my own blog (LOl!!). Check it out over the weekend and the list should be there!

Really inspired by your list. Item#14 surely makes me envy you.

That was a great idea Chris! I didn’t know, such a thing could be done. Even though I, as like any other person, have dreams. Come to think of it, here is a list of what I think should be my life list at this moment.

1. Perform the pilgrimage to Meccah with my wife, 2 kids and parents.
2. Go on a road trip over Europe (London, Paris and Rome are must sees) with my wife and 2 kids.
3. Go to the Disney land (full family here too).
4. I would also like to witness one Summer Olymics (specially the 100 mtrs sprint finals, 50 mtrs swimming final and the gymnastics finals)
5. See one world-cup soccer final.
6. Take a cruise on board one of those luxurious cruise liners with my wife only (obviously the kids have to grow up a bit for that to happen).

That’s all I can think of at this moment. But, just as Jon has said, you can always go on adding to this list!

Hey Rob

Sorry to hear about your misfortune. I can’t say I can relate to your situation and don’t envy you if you’re going through some tough times.

I’m not sure the nature of your sickness, so I may be totally off-based here, but have you tried to use it as motivation….as if someone has told you that you “can’t do” something?

For me, I guess because I’m a stubborn #$%!, I use that as fuel to propel me to attempt to do what’s in question or what someone else says is impossible for me to accomplish.

thanks for the well wishes, and if there is any advice or help that I can give you, please don’t hesitate to ask.

-Chris

Awesome list. Michael Jordan is also one of my heros, I would have loved to have seen him play. If i actually met him, i don’t know what I would say. Coffee is one my passions also.

Thanks for sharing. It’s made me think of how i can incorporate things i really, really enjoy into life goals. Thanks!

Sounds like a fun list. I’ve never made a list like this, but have considered things for a long time… Even before the movie “The Bucket List” came out a couple years ago. The cool thing is that as you check things off, you can still add to it.
