The Quest

This blog is about setting and achieving little goals in life, while having a bit of fun at the same time. My challenge is to complete a list things I'd like to do before I meet my maker. This all began when I was randomly browsing Amazon.co.uk and came across the book 101 Things To Do Before You Die, which sets you the challenge of completing everything on the list. At first I thought nothing of it, but after a few days the idea began to grow on me that it would be a fun thing to do so I went ahead and bought it.

A few of the things in the list are impossible/difficult to complete such as reach 100 years of age, so I will be using the original suggested list as inspiration to make my own list which will be more accomplishable. The finished list will be published in the following days/weeks when I have finalised what i would like to achieve in my life.

Some of you may ask why I would want to do something like this. Well it is just a bit of fun, and will be interesting to see if I can achieve the completion of the list. As the book says:

"It's better to regret something you have done, rather that to regret something you should have done but didn't. Living is the middle bit between life and death, it's what you do in the middle that counts."

I shall use this blog to update how I am going with my ongoing tasks, and announce when I have been successful in completing them. It may also inspire others to try a similar thing themselves, and I would fully advise you to do so as it is something you are unlikely to regret (unless you take the original task #23 Get Arrested to far and end up doing life in the slammer).

Soon I will publish the list I intend to complete. If anyone has their own ideas that they think I may like to add please contact me and I promise to read all ideas openly.
