10 Things That Should Be On Your Life List
You've probably heard of a 'life list' - you may even have one. It's the sort of mental to-do list that people keep, often without telling anyone about them, filled with the goals they want to achieve and by what point in their lives in order to define their own successes. Things like 'get promoted to management by 26' or 'get engaged by 30' or 'have kids by 35'.
Whilst lists like that are great, and can certainly achieve your goals, do those items really define your success as a person? What happens when you get promoted at 28, engaged at 32 and have kids at 36? Often, the list creator sees life not going according to the life list as a failure, and bases their self worth on how quickly they can knock off all their goals.
Instead, here are 10 goals that should be on your life list instead - deadlines optional.
1. Learn to love the way you look with and without makeup on.
2. Be able to freely admit your mistakes.
3. Master the art of apologizing - none of that "I'm sorry, but...." stuff anymore.
4. Be confident enough to give a short few minute speech when called upon at friends weddings.
5. Know how to pull yourself out of an awful mood when you need to.
6. Know how to dress for your body type, and have nothing in your closet that doesn't make you feel great about yourself.
7. Learn to diplomatically voice your opinion in a debate, without attacking the other person's point of view.
8. Be comfortable striking up conversations with strangers.
9. Love yourself enough to live a healthy lifestyle and be proud of your body, regardless of the battle scars it holds.
10. Do something that you're passionate about - even if that thing isn't what pays the bills
