Have you ever heard someone say, “That’s going on my bucket list.” Usually these words are uttered after someone hears or thinks of some incredibly awesome experience they’d like to have.
But if we think about the words “bucket list” what comes to mind?
It makes me think of someone who has their best years behind them, and is trying to capture a little bit more life before their time on this planet is gone. They’re probably still having fun, but they can’t help but think they wish they had done all of these things while they were younger and able to enjoy them more.
It makes me think of someone who has no sense of urgency or accomplishment. They’re trying to achieve these things “before they die.”
It’s no secret that we are best motivated to accomplish things when we have a deadline. What kind of deadline is before we die?
