Life isn’t a To Do list.
Fresh from Leo’s zenhabits this morning is this insightful post about Bucket Lists.
here’s what happens when you make a bucket list:
-
You put this huge burden on yourself to get the list accomplished. As if we don’t already have enough on our to-do lists already!
-
If you don’t do well at pursuing the things on the list, you feel guilty or underaccomplished.
-
If you do well at pursuing the list, you are probably pursuing less-than-meaningful activities. They’re usually just there because they sounded cool to do.
As always Leo has some great suggestions for an alternative approach.
