Bucket List 2010

Posted on: May 10th, 2010 1 Comment

So it’s May 2010, how are those new years resolutions coming along? Most likely you have canceled your gym membership since you are still over weight and that diet is none existent, right? So with that, I propose a different strategy, a bucket list.

I am sure you have seen the movie and maybe even created a master goals list yourself, but why not JFDI and take some action with this years bucket list for 2010. My biggest goal in the past year has been launching a new company and closing another. I have learned a ton from launching SEO Drop and even more by closing it down. What it could have been, what ifs, etc. With uBlanket I am realizing that a new wave is a coming. After recently presenting to some VCs our model and financials, it is clear uBlanket is going to be big, but that’s for another post.

Bucket List 2010
Now imagine for a second that you WILL die on December 31, 2010. How would that change what you are doing now? Think about it for a bit, would you change what you are doing or what you plan to do tomorrow? Would priority change of what you REALLY want to accomplish in 2010?

It’s a big first step in JFDI and yes, you can say well I would just live on an island racking up debt and then who cares cause I am dying. True, but expand your context and open your eyes.

There is a bigger problem here. The problem is that you are afraid of success. Yes, success, not failure. I am guessing you AREN’T driving that new Ferrari, right? So that Ford is yours right? So your failing and with that not a success… yet.

So with that, let’s jump into some ideas for a 2010 bucket list and some of my own to help and myself get started.

  • Start a new company
  • Travel – Where? Europe, Asia, Road Trip
  • Learn how to Surfing, Skiing, Hiking
  • Spend 30 minutes more a day with my family

I think you get the point. Be sure to focus on actionable items with a specific time. Remember, giving up that 1 hour of LOST or American Idol gives you 1 hour to focus on this bucket list.

For my own use and to kick my own @$$ into JFDI, here is a snippet from my 2010 Bucket List.

  • Spend $50,000 in paid-online marketing by end of year
  • Create 10 episodes of a video podcast
  • Launch another successful side profitable company
  • Learn to wakeboard
  • Finish my 2008 goals except not relaunching Hippy Green
