Jennifer feeding Moe the Sloth at Cincinnati Zoo.
In episode four of “This Is Your Life” Michael Hyatt talks about giving out legal pads and having his family right down 100 things they would like to do in their life. He called it a goal list or dream list (as he says, this was before he knew of the term bucket list – I like dream list better).
I think everyone needs to make one of these and push yourself to 100 as he suggests. Why? You will be amazed at the results you can have just by putting pen to paper. Share them with your family and strive to accomplish everything on it.
One of the big list items for my wife was meeting a sloth. Thanks to Allison Gibbs and Kate Olukalns at the Cincinnati Zoo she was able to mark this off last month. We were also able to walk in New York City which was something both of us had wanted to do for some time.

Nothing is to wild and crazy for the list and don’t leave anything off. From eating at a specific restaurant to traveling the world, anything you want to do should be on the list. You never know when you can make it happen or someone makes it happen for you.
This will be my final book review for 2012. As we embark on a new year and a new journey I will be gearing up for things to come in 2013!
