The Unemployed Millionaire Show: Why You MUST Write a Bucket List

An Entrepreneur’s Guide to Lifestyle Freedom: Episode 19

Last week during my vacation to Cancun, I had the opportunity to see Chichen Itza which is one of the 7 Wonders of the World!  I was thrilled to spend a Tuesday afternoon exploring another one of the 7 Wonders of the World!

Seeing all 7 Wonders of The World is a high priority on my bucket list and now I’m up to 3! One of the main reasons I now have the ability to explore the world on a Tuesday afternoon instead of sitting in an office is because of my ability to dream…

An Author, who remains anonymous, once said this:

“You will never live life beyond your wildest expectations until you
first have some wild expectations.”

This quote has had a lasting impact in my life over the years. I seriously would not be where I am today had I not developed the ability to dream BIG!

I can’t overemphasize the importance of having a powerful dream – after all, dreams are the fire that fuel desire! One of the secret characteristics of successful people is that they just want it so bad they can’t stand it. That desire for success is what will propel you to the top.

One of the secrets for creating a desire that just doesn’t quit is to create a lifetime dream list/bucket list that you read every single day! So this weekend, I want you to create a “Dream List” of at least 100 things you want to do while you’re still alive.

I created my list when I was 24 years old and it still sits at the very front of my planner that I use on a daily basis. When I started my list, I honestly couldn’t even imagine some of these dreams as possible, but because I put them on paper, I took the first step to turning those dreams into my reality.

To help get you started on your dreams list and to prove that anything is possible, I’m going to share a few of the things I put on my dreams list 10 years ago that have become a reality for me:

Go on an African Safari

Cruise the Mediterranean

Walk on Fire

Write a Book and become a best-selling author (The Unemployed Millionaire)

Become scuba certified

Scuba dive with sharks (I’ve been diving with sharks in Bora Bora and South Africa!)

Relax on a beach in Tahiti

Visit the top of the Eiffel Tower (I proposed to my amazingly beautiful wife there!)

Vacation in Hawaii

Go Bungee Jumping (Check out Episode 5 of The Unemployed Millionaire Show!)

Okay, so those are just a few of the experiences I’ve had because I created my dreams list… Now I want you to go start your dreams list (or add to it) and don’t stop until you have at least 100 dreams written down!

P.S. I’d love to hear what your bucket list items are so let’s talk about it in the comments section below!
