How many years do you think you will live for? Most people I know assume 80 to 90 so don’t do the things on their bucket or dreams list straight away or plan when they are going to do it because they have years to go. This was interrupted for me when a friend of mine died of a massive heart attack sleeping on a couch a week ago, he was 50. He had a heart of gold and was well loved but he is dead so all the things he intended to do over his remaining 40 years were cancelled out.

Vision boards, dream lists etc. etc.. where do you keep yours? I have an end result list from a Create Your Destiny course I did recently, I keep it on my mirror so I see it every day, here it is:

1. I choose the end result of being in a long term relationship in 2021.
2. I choose the end result of contributing 25% of my income to good causes.
3. I choose the end result of traveling overseas to interesting places yearly.
4. I choose the end result of making $210,000 from my writing and research businesses yearly.
5. I choose the end result of dancing at least 4 times a month.
6. I choose the end result of having sex on a regular basis.
7. I choose the end result of marrying my soulmate.
8. I choose the end result of beginning a family.
9. I chose the end result of weighing 84kg.

I am 66 so do not have as long as others, and given what happened to my friend, it may be shorter than I think. So what has society said about having dreams to fulfill in out lives, lets have a look:

1. But don’t take an inordinate amount of time!!!

4. Fabienne’s key message —that each of us is here to serve the world in a BIG way and that as a result, we are handsomely rewarded for it —has changed thousands of lives around the globe. She fervently believes in the capacity for each and every one of us to become the full expression of our purpose here on earth, and to do so, we must take a no-excuses approach to growing within. For that to happen, Fabienne teaches her students and clients that any struggle on the outside is a reflection of the struggle on the inside, and once eliminated, that internal struggle gives way to all the abundance, financial and otherwise, that a person deserves and seeks :https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nH7bjV0Q_44

15. I had the goosebumps that fulfilled one of my end results recently, it didn’t work out.

So society talks about action not retirement to fulfill our dreams, over to you, whatever age you are. What may help you is my ethos for the planer, Love and Respect for All, Everybody included.
