Bucket Lists have become increasingly popular over the past 10 years with many people putting together a list of things they want to achieve before they “kick the bucket”.
Personally, with the number of experiences and things I want to do and achieve in my life, I found myself forever adding and changing things within my bucket list. After doing some research online, I decided to mix up my Bucket List a little by creating a Goals List instead. So here it is, 100 Things I want to do before I Turn 50.
I must admit I was a little anxious to share this as I haven’t shown anyone before, but by doing this now I am already ticking off the first 2 items on my list! I am now holding myself socially accountable to complete these 100 goals, before I turn 50 years old!
