My coach (yes as a coach, I have to have my own coach as well) mentioned how I haven’t been working on my life list lately. This is true so I had to get myself to look back on it and Justin and I completed another thing off my list. We went to the Orlando Science Center.
As a kid in Orlando, I had been on many fields trips to the OLD science center but since it was completely redone, I had not been and have been wanting to.
The beautiful new Orlando Science Center has a living Florida wetlands in the bottom level where you can see turtles and alligators swimming and laying around. Next to it is a small coral reef with all kinds of fish.
We went on the Titanic Ship of Dreams tour where they showed us tons of real life objects from Titanic and told us facts from the ship. At the end, they leave you with the sad stories of people who did not make it and how the ship sank. Of course, I got teary eyed thinking about how scared those people must have been.
They had exhibits about Dinosaurs and the Giant planets in our solar system. The last exhibit was a walk through of Norman Rockwell’s work. They had a lot of his work made into 3D stand ups. They ended with a room with every single cover he ever did.
It was a fun day and another item was crossed of my life list. Maybe not a HUGE item but still creating more meaning in my life and an experience I will remember. I can now say I have been.
What have you done off your life list lately?

You don’t know what a life list is? WE NEED TO TALK!
Life List is a list of goals you want to achieve in your life. Some of them will be major goals while others will be small. It is a way for you to get the most out of life and stop having those would’ve, could’ve, should’ves.
Life Lists are my passion and I coach a lot of my clients in this area. It is important part of life planning.
You can check out an article I wrote about life lists here:

Oh this list sounds like a good idea. I was also thinking about a list of things I don’t want in my life anymore also. I guess that’s the same thing

It is so much fun to develop a list. I am always adding new things to mine. I have a Guided Life List journal which helps people think of different areas in their lives to add to their life list. Makes the process easier and complete.

Very cool, funny I’ve been going through my list since the last month. i apply to UCF, looking into moving into Orlando, draw, read, and write more. And of course to be a better friend to those who are dear to my heart.
