TO GET UPDATES ON MY LIST, PLEASE VISIT MY LIFE LIST. THANK YOU
It seems like this year just flew by so fast that it was hard to hold on for the ride. I know there were times that I was just barely holding on by the finger nails. But you know what, I still made it through. I had to admit I was dreading my birthday for a little while, mostly becomes it’s a reminder that I’m still where I want to be. I’m still working for someone else, I’m still struggling with time, and it seems I’m still running around busy as ever. I’m still wondering if I will ever get things under control.
I’ve been reading books, blogs, and magazine articles about how important it to follow your passion, and I’m trying. But none of them seem to address how you make money while you follow your passion. Nobody tells you how to pay your mortgage, health insurance and car payment while you follow the path to happiness.
And through all my research I never found answer other than if you follow your passion the money will come. I also discovered that many people suggest making a list of 100 things you would like to do in life. You know the “bucket list”, “life list”, and “mighty list”. So a few months ago I started my list and it was surprisingly hard to complete I wanted to make sure everything on the list was important and meaningful. I realized that my list was about what I thought people should put on a list. Not necessarily what I really want on my list. So here we go my second attempt at my very one 100 list. You can read my older list here.

So that’s what I have so far. Eventually I’ll make it to 100. Now I just have to figure out how to get through this list.
Hey Stephanie, that is quite a list. Some of yours are on my list as well; new camera, launch another blog/website, learn Spanish a little better (you will love Spain), write a book, that will probably keep me busy enough. I envy you if you can get that done, but it will be fun trying.
