Bucket list haters, this is not for you. Things to do before I die, bucket list, life goals - whatever you call it. It’s good to have something to look forward to and do something exciting in our lives for once. Writing a bucket list is just a baby step towards achieving our dreams and making our lives worth living

Life is short!

Live each day as if it is your last.

Seize the day!

We’ve heard of it all, but life gets in the way. Because you know, someone has to put food on the table, someone’s gotta work. Yes, I understand, but the time has come to make a radical change in our lives. It’s time to take charge and live!

I have slowly traveled far and wide, with just 2 goals in my mind. To search for my life’s purpose and to live. So I had the chance to finally cross out 40% of my bucket list. Some were like big adventures while some were just simple things to do. Big or small, it really doesn’t matter. But hey, don’t get limited to this list. Be creative. Part of your bucket list should be “To add something new to the list”, in this way you will not run out of exciting things to do in life.

Wow what an amazing list. Love your outlook on life. You have to do number 93 and take them with you on your travels down your bucket list. I travel with my best adventure buddy Rocket. You can see our travels on my blog if you want to see just how great it can be. ✌

Thanks! Dog's such a great company , probably better than humans lol. Very loyal.

I will check that out!

You are 100% correct and the best by far to cuddle with. 🐾👣

That's an amazing bucket list! And #92 just came out of nowhere:-)

My advice to help with #65 would be to skip John Galt's speech near the end - that will increase your chances of finishing the book dramatically!

I wish you a fast completion of the list and plenty more new things to add to it.

The John Galt's speeh is so boring lol though I really like the book and The Fountainhead.

Wow it's not everyday I come across someone who reads the same book! :)

Thanks!

So boring! Okay, we get it, John Galt likes the sound of his own voice, but come on! It's one of my favorite books, but it could have used a ruthless editor to trim about 100 pages from it, maybe more.

Yeah, I would think there is an above average chance on Steemit to meet someone who's read Atlas Shrugged, but I could be wrong. I would be more surprised if I interacted with someone who read The Count Of Monte Cristo, the Robin Buss unabridged 1000+ page version. That would be awesome:)

Omg lol, I'm already having a hard time finishing the book. I was slowly reading Atlas Shrugged and savoring every part of it. Then I stopped for a while because that book took some space in my bag lol. Ebooks hurt my eyes, I prefer the smell of old books. Mine was a used book.

You are probably right, steemit is a diverse community and there's more chance of finding someone here reading the same book than when I was traveling, I guess.

And there are probably more libertarians here on average than on any social media site on the internet.

I prefer physical books to ebooks too...traveling with a book in my bag or back pocket...that's the life!

Yeah, that's why since I've signed up here, I'm less visible on Facebook. I got attacked for just posting my honest view on politics and life lol. Anyway I'm not getting rewarded for years of posting content there. So, I'm done.

Cool to hear from you. I'm looking forward to new posts about entries in your list which are going to be crossed out :D

Yes, I'm looking forward to crossing out them as well! Thanks!

Wow. Looks like you're livin' it up. Nice to see those crossed out lines on your bucketlist.

Thank you so much, make one too! ;)

hello I follow u.
plz upvote me

"Finish reading "Atlas Shrugged"" : How far did you go?

I have lost the book while I was traveling and now I have to buy a new one. It' already part of my bucket list to finish it lol.

That part where Dagny Taggart's plane crashed.

Oh yeah sure... you "lost" the +1000 pages copy of Atlas Shrugged while backpacking ;) I imagine all this extra space afterwards :)

Yeah lol. I will let you know when I have finished it! Hopefully this year, sigh.

Have the same problem with Joyce's Ulysses ^^ Good luck!

I can help you with #68! :D

omg come here and help me make it happen!

Thanks! :)

I am currently traveling but you never know our paths will cross someday somewhere in this small world. I followed you! Hope you follow me too!

Sure, who knows! This is a small world. ;)

Indeed. Happened to me couple times with my couchsurfers. lol

To me as well, travel makes the world small. ;)

did you write the letter yet?

Some great ideas on that list.

I stole some for mine ;-)

Feel free to get some ideas.

I haven't written yet, thanks for reminding lol. Now that I have free time!

Brilliant! I have my own BL. Wish you the whole 100 till 35 ;)

Share that BL if you don't mind. How did you know 35 lol.

www ?

I have "Atlas Shrugged" on CD, and I've listened twice. Can I mail it to you?
Just trying to help with your list!! :-D

Wow thanks! But I prefer to really finish the book, that's my goal :)

Go for it!! Your list is an inspiration!!

Thank you!!! :)
