My 50 by 50 (382 hits)


This morning as I was spending some quiet time alone and meditating, I thought about the fact that I will be 50 in a few years and that there were so many things that I wanted to accomplish by that time. I was also thinking about the fact that time waits on noone and if I ever wanted to do or have all of those things by the time I turn 50, then I need to get the ball rolling, NOW.

Here is a list of all the things that I want to either do or have by the time I turn 50. This not a bucket list because there are a lot more things that I want to do or have. But this is just 50 to get me through the next few years before I turn 50
