5 Things I Must Do #timetolive

We always talk a lot about ‘one day I’m going to do x’, but want effort do we put into actually making it happen?

We know, life gets busy and our ‘must do’ list becomes more dream than reality. Thinking about this, I’ve come up with my own list. What would you put on yours?

Celebrate New Year’s Eve in Times Square

The Office site of Times Square says it so enticingly “… as the clock nears midnight on December 31, the eyes of the world turn once more to the dazzling lights and bustling energy of Times Square. Anticipation runs high. The world holds its breath, and cheers as the clocks strike twelve.” Who doesn’t want to be a part of this, just once in their life.  

Take up a Hobby

Ever wanted to learn how to play chess or ski the Mountains of Hokkaido?  It is about taking the first step and setting realistic expectations. It’s very easy to become frustrated and disheartened when you first start and it won’t happen overnight, but again it’s about making it part of your routine, chip away at it slowly.

Hit your Fitness Goal

What’s on your List? Maybe the The Hamilton Island Triathlon or walking the Great Wall of China? Easier said than done I know, but when you know your workout and exercise goal that is the key to staying motivated. And when you make fitness a part of your routine it becomes achievable. You could even turn this into an extended holiday.

Learn a New Language

What a fabulous opportunity to better understand other cultures and different ways of  thinking. There has also been numerous studies across the globe that have linked the ability of leato mention it can be used as a stepping stone for when you jet off overseas for your dream holiday.

Plan Your Dream Holiday

There is no doubt about it, even just the idea of going on a trip is enough to excite many people but this is The Holiday, the one you have been dreaming of for a very long time.  There has to be a work life balance so that you can recharge, but who says it can’t be a working holiday. Go ahead, just book it!
