Take out your pen and paper or open up a text document. Start writing down what comes to mind as you read these questions:
Come up with as many items as you can. The items should be things you have not done yet. If you find yourself stuck, chances are you are mentally limiting/constraining yourself. Release those shackles – Your bucket list is meant to be a list of everything you want to achieve, do, see, feel and experience in your life.

Everyone makes their own choices. But if I were at your position, after seeking my answers to above questions, I would definitely...

There's so much we don't know, can't know because we stay at one place all our lives. Not everyone gets such an opportunity to do something what others can't. And if you got one, you gotta do the things what gives you an edge. By travelling, you get the experience of the places, people, problems, cultures, new things, and all that at once! It can be rough in the beginning but it gets beautiful. You just have to understand why is that you are doing what you are doing.
Here are the problems people face in their late 20's.

Well, my friend, do you see the opportunity you have right here?
Wouldn't you like to gaze at the Northern Lights from a glass igloo in Finnish Lapland?
Wouldn't you like to go and have dinner at this restaurant near Sanyou Cave above the Chang Jiang river, Hubei , China?
Wouldn't you like to leave the world behind for all it's complexities and search for simplicity? Here are a few places that are in my travel bucket list.
Blue Caves – Zakynthos Island, Greece
Santorini, Greece
Blue Lagoon Galapagos Islands in Ecuador
Skaftafell Ice Cave in Iceland
So, I guess you figure out what you want to achieve in this life and go get it.

Travel the world with the person I love (or alone).

Get Into Action!
After you finish your list, here’s what to do next:- Start acting on them! Plan out the successful path toward these goals
- Be reminded of the list all the time. Use environmental reinforcement – put them up in a prominent spot where you will see them every day / very regularly. Put it in your life handbook, set it as your wallpaper, pin it on your noticeboard, print it out, stick it on your wardrobe/locker.
- Share them with your family and friends. Inspire them to create their own bucket lists too! This way, you also create accountability for yourself as you complete the items on your list.personalexcellence.co
- Don’t limit your list items to a certain definition. Sometimes opportunity present itself in a totally different manner. Keep your eyes peeled! The universe will start throwing things your way.
- Review your list regularly. Cross out the things after you do them. See if some of the items become irrelevant and if there are new things you want to add. Just as you finish the items, you’ll add new ones as they come along. There is absolutely no reason why your list should ever be empty. There is such an incredible wealth of things, events, activities, experiences to witness/go through in life that it’s impossible that you will ever be done with living.
So, I guess you figure out what you want to achieve in this life and go get it.
