Dust off that bucket list you wrote two years ago and start making things happen! You know the routine. January gets here and you start making all sorts of plans and goals for how you’re going to really rock your life this year. Yeah, ok. The next thing you know, another 365 days have gone by, and nothing.
This year, do something different. Forget making new resolutions. Take out that bucket list I know you already wrote a while ago, and start living the life you really want to live. Don’t know where to start? I’ve got some tips for you.

Dream big, start small. You don’t have to conquer the world all in one year through your bucket list. If one of your goals is to get a degree, start by registering for a class or two. Even just a small step in the right direction can get you going. Use that momentum to take the next step, or…
Jump right in! If you’re the “go big or go home” type, take a big leap of faith and just go for it– whatever it is. You want to start a business? Do it. Always dreamed of performing stand-up comedy? Sign right up. Sometimes making a commitment will force you to follow through on something you’ve been putting off for years. So go ahead, just do it.
Subscribe to coupon sites. If you’re not hip to Groupon, LivingSocial or similar coupon sites, you’re missing out on some great opportunities to knock a few things off your bucket list. These sites not only have deep discounts at your favorite restaurant or clothing retailer, but they have deals for all sorts of fun and adventurous activities and great escapades. If you’ve always wanted to try bungee jumping or white water rafting, or travel to Bora Bora or Paris, log on and make your wildest travel dreams come true.
Help someone with their bucket list. Ask your family and friends for copies of their bucket lists, and instead of giving them a tie or gadget for their birthday, anniversary or graduation, help them cross off one of the items from their lists. They’ll have a great life experience and you’ll feel all warm and fuzzy inside.
A few items on my bucket list…
Tour Italy
Write and publish a book
Become fluent in French
Start a scholarship fund
Bake a (delicious) cake from scratch
