"It’s not a bucket list. This isn’t a checklist of things you do before you die.In fact, one of his rules of making a 100 list—there are rules—is that you don’t have to finish every item. This is a list you use to plan to live.
Just as he needed detailed architectural plans to build his dream home in Alaska, he argues that without detailed goals, life can wash over you and “You’re just winging it. It’s not that it won’t be a good life, but it might be one in which you have regrets, you stagnate, you have a midlife crisis. You don’t realize your potentials.”
When opportunities come along, “people don’t see them because they don’t know where they’re going, they don’t even know what they want,” Or the excuses are handy: too hard, too expensive, bad timing. The list pushes you to seize the moment.” -Taniguchi, BYU
I won’t just have a job; I’ll have a calling. I’ll challenge myself every day. When I get knocked down, I’ll get back up. I may not be the smartest person in the room, but I’ll strive to be the grittiest. Duckworth
