Last night I went to a performance at school where the guys from The Buried Life show came and spoke to us. The show is about four normal guys who decide to make a list of things they want to do before they die, and then actually do them all. Along the way, they help other people cross off things on their own lists of dreams. It was truly inspiring. These guys had no money, no resources, just pure desire and determination to succeed. And they actually did it. It started off as one small idea and it turned into a huge multi-national television show that exceeded all expectations.
It makes me think, what can I do that will exceed expectations. They ask what your dreams are, no matter how far off or impossible they might seem. Write those dreams down, and then go after them. Don't let those dreams stay just ideas in your head, something you think about when you're fed up with your normal day to day life. Let those dreams drive your day to day life. Do what inspires you.
So what is it that inspires me? What is my big dream that will make the impossible possible? Is it possible that my big dream is to figure out what my big dream is? I guess that is a start at least. So first on the list of things I want to do before I die, is to make a list. I wonder if that's cheating the system somehow. Oh well, it's my life right?
