Strangely I have never really thought about having a bucket list until now.
As I write this, I’m 29 and having completed three decades of my life so far, I can tell you that I have achieved very many things in my life. But there is hunger for more.
My life so far has been about education, migrating to a foreign land, finding my feet as an adult living away from the family and achieving some “adult” stuff like getting a job, paying bills, dating and last but not the least, nose diving into the waters of spirituality and exploring my soul and its purpose.
But approaching 30 has made me question my life in general. What do I want from it. What kind of life do I want to live going forward. I have a thirst for adventure and freedom mostly, that I haven’t explored as yet. Having a bucket list for my life is the next step so here I am! I won’t put a time limit on this as I think this will remain a living list, i.e. more things will get added as I grow and maybe my interests will change with my age and wisdom (lol!).
As Bill Gates once said “Most people overestimate what they can do in one year and underestimate what they can do in ten years.”
