Taking a look at your retroactive bucket list
You are always headed there from here. With at least some latent sense of angst, you are resolving a current problem or pursuing a future dream by moving towards a there.
Along your journey of multiple heres and theres, have you taken time lately to stop and appreciate some old theres?
Perhaps you have already:
- Married the love of your life
- Earned the degree
- Started the business
- Cared for your parents
- Raised your children
- Paid off the debt
- Learned to play an instrument
- Gotten the certification
- Taken the trip
- And a million other little things that deserve to be reconsidered in the light of appreciation.
Sure, you have more to do, more problems to solve, more dreams to chase, more people to meet, more things to do, more responsibilities to fulfill. But for a moment today, stop and appreciate the large and small things you have accomplished or attempted along the way thus far.
Back there.
