I'm a list maker by nature. If I want to get something done I need to write it down. I love getting to scratch things off my list when I can completed them. I've never been good at keeping a journal so my list are more of a road map to my life. They are my version of where I have been and where I want to go. On of my favorite quotes reminds me why I write things down:
" The difference between a goal and a dream is the written word."- Gene DonohueI have a lot of goals in life and sometimes it's easy to lose focus on what I'm working towards. Tony Robbins said, "setting goals is the first step in turning the invisible into the visible." With my big THREE ZERO only a few years away I thought I would compile my list of goals into my top DIRTY THIRTY. Here they are in no particular order:
