Chinese Proverb
Why is a Life List a Must?
Because your dreams deserve a runway! A Life List is your personal adventure map reminding you that it’s never too early or too late to dream, chase goals, and keep growing.
Here’s the deal:
Write down everything you want to do in life. As you check things off, date them if you remember, but never delete anything! It’s your legacy of bold moves and beautiful moments.
Dreaming is the fun part, but making it real! That takes action! Don’t just list it!—live it!
Glenda’s Life list
Some call it a “bucket list” — I prefer “ Life List” because it’s all about living!. I’ve been dreaming, planning, and jotting down adventures since I was a child. This list, it’s ever-growing, ever-evolving… just like me.
Yes, it’s massive. And yes, I fully intend to check off every single thing.
My hopes! That it sparks something in you to make your own epic list of dreams. There’s no rulebook . You can tackle one item at a time or wander and wonder your way through it like I do. Then I review the list every now and then to see if I can mark anything off so I can say Tah Dah!
It's a reminder to Go Places, See Things & Do Stuff ! A motto I live by. I’ll be updating it right here, so you can follow along and maybe cheer me on or say Tah Dah! with me as I checked something off.
So go ahead — dream,start scribbling, and create your own Life List.
GO, SEE & DO!
Live The Adventure !!
Happy Life List making!
Glenda
