I have done this "bucket list" thing before even seeing the movie with Freeman and Nicholson (great movie by the way). I have some 120 listed experiences I want to do before I die. I do fill in new ones when I have completed something on the list. I went to Rome last August (2007). Big dream of mine since I was aged 16. Next thing I am planning now is a luxurius 14 day trip to New York that will include helicopter tour above New York City, limousine trip from and to the JFK airport. Me and my younger brother will live at The Carlyle Hotel (5 star hotel) during the whole visit. Yes, it will be expensive for sure. The budget is well above $20,000. Call me crazy, but it is all paid for at this moment. This will be a great way of ending year 2008 (we will be in New York from December 26th, 2008 to January 8th, 2009). Take care of yourself, but plan the financials though. You want to reach your dreams without going bankrupt:). Now, why not sit down for 30 minutes and list at least 50 items you really want to experience before not being able to do them? What "you" want not what "others" want. When you have listed the item, then plan one of them in detail and set a deadline on them. Otherwise they will be only paper. You need to research a little. As Tim Ferriss says "Your dreams cost less than you think". It is all about how you plan it all. I think “bucket lists” is a great thing.

I use it all of the time and it takes all the menial everyday tasks that I have to perform on my computer daily and shortens them extremely! What once took me fifteen minutes to complete now takes me only one second because RoboForm does the same task with just one click. In fact I wrote a Report about a lot of RoboForm’s capabilities for use that aren’t even touched on in the User’s Manual for RoboForm.

I picked up one of the new soft cover pocket notebooks - more flexible in your back pocket. I moved my driver license and debit card into the back pocket and now I use it as my wallet so I don't have two things to carry around. Works wonderfully. The only thing I struggle with is remembering to go back and check/process everything I write in it. Suggestions? http://livsimpl.com I’m a Moleskine fan myself.

I made it automatic by using a treadmill desk. I walk all day at work at slow speeds, never sweating and after a few months I am a new person! You can make your own but you may run into problems with posture etc. I found the TrekDesk to be the best I have seen so far. You can read about it at www.trekdesk.com. Good luck to you and keep up the hard work, maybe make it a little easier with a treadmill desk.

As an introvert, joining a club or signing up for a class are best for me because they provide a starting point for good conversations. I've also found that volunteering is a great way to get out and meet people. I'm a volunteer director serving on a few charitable boards and have made some good friends this way while doing something beneficial from my community. Win-win!

It looks like there is no possibility to auto-forward Yahoo mail to Gmail. A search revealed that it may be theoretically possible by downloading 2 different programs, going Hotmail to "fool" Yahoo... but frankly this is way too much hassle. I guess I just check my Yahoo email as usual so. :-) Got pretty excited when reading about this and tried following your advice, however, fell at the first hurdle.
