100 Things and More . . .
Have you ever listed 100 things you would like to do, have, be, or experience before leaving this beautiful planet? It’s an great process and especially valuable I feel as we reflect on our lives and our dreams.
I began this exploration when I noticed that many of the clients did not have clear ideas of what they wanted or desired. I asked several of them to identify 100 things and noticed they had trouble getting past the first 20! One took the challenge and got to 100 easily in a matter of minutes.
I tried this exercise too and was able to get 70+. YIKES! We live in an incredible time of abundance and opportunity and I was sure I would get to 100 quickly or even beyond.
If I have not identified what I desire how am I going to attract it? I am not talking about superficial things like going to a movie today. I am writing about the things that would somehow enhance your life or broaden your experience or would just be fun.
Flying on the Concorde was something I always wanted to do and I kept putting it off, thinking I would do it later.My stories at the time were it’s too expensive or not the right time. The excuses we use for not taking action tend to keep us stuck. Fast forward to now and the Concorde is no longer flying. As I look back with that 20/20 hindsight vision I can see that there were many opportunities to create that experience had I allowed them.
Categories can simplify your 100 things list.Here are some examples;
Relationships: perhaps you would like to have a yummy relationship with the perfect partner or perhaps there’s a family relationship you would like to heal.
Travel: where have you always wanted to travel? How have you wanted to travel?
Emotional: are there unresolved emotional charges in your life?
Spiritual: what experiences would you reach for in this area? Perhaps you would like to deepen your connection to all that is. Or, maybe you would like to go on a meditation retreat to a power point of vortex or spiritual energy?
Environment: Could it be better? What would you change? Are you living in the state, city, climate that you want to be in? Do you have the support services nearly accessible that make your experience of life even better?
Physical: What would you like to create or experience in the area of your physical well being that you have not already experienced or that you had at one time and would like to regain?
Life long learning: have you always wanted to learn to speak Italian? Would taking a class on raw food preparation enrich your life? Do you love the opera and have limited knowledge about it? Have you always wanted to know more about a certain culture or tradition?
Contribution. This one often is missed because we get so caught up in what I call the do do land of life that we miss the opportunities to bring through us our gifts and the genius that each of us has to contribute.
What gift(s) do you have still untapped, unexplored, unexpressed that would contribute to the well being of others? How would you like to express that gift?
Take some time now and reflect on the 100 things you would like to do, have, be, or experience before leaving this planet. Make a list and date each entry. How many could you come up with? If you don’t know where you are going, how are you going to get there?
Note when you have reached or manifested each of the goals or desires on your list. Add new ones to replace the old. In this way you are always reaching and growing towards something more.
Many of us resist the idea of wanting something for ourselves. If that’s you, contact me today for a complimentary Discovery Session. You may be surprised by what you discover!
