My Mini-Bucket List

How to Start

People often recommend having a 'Bucket List,' but sometimes it's hard to know where to start especially when you are in a phase of your life where you are rediscovering yourself. 

When I was in that stage I started with a mini bucket list and expanded it as I began to explore more about myself. Later I was able to help others figure out How to Craft a Bucket List 

Jumping in a lake - Facing my Fears

My 2013 Mini-Bucket List

Conquer my fear of jumping in a lake: CHECK I did it!! Sunday, July 28th. Will I do it again?
Conquer my fear of heights
Off Roading  in a Jeep CHECK this turned out to be a passion for me.

Reflecting on my list 10 years later 

As I look back on this first real bucket list, I found I had a theme. I began to see who I am to the core from analyzing this list comparing it to my goals and dreams I have now. 

My free time to do what I enjoy, my kids, adventure, my Jeep and conquering my fears are still experiences and goals I want to achieve.
