I don't mean sexually or daily "to do lists"
I was reading a magazine article, where the women had made a "life to do list" from the age of 15.
Eg: fall in love, bungee jump etc.
Has any of you been like this? If so, did you tick everything off of it? |

"You mean like a 'bucket list'?
I have certain things. Would like to achieve, but no set list.x"
Yes like a bucket list, but one you started at a young age  |

I realized that lists are pointless. For me, anyway.

I didn't have a list, but I did achieve 2 things I wanted. |

I saw that article. The lady did well and I liked some of the ones she achieved which included kissing under water.
But it was a let down as she swallowed water in a coupletter of seconds.  |

"Yes, wrote one years ago with my bestest girl friends. We've revised it since
Care to share what was on it "
All sorts, going to Paris for one of us, a 3some for one of us (not me either!).
I wanted a diamond ring. Sadly I got my Mum's when she died  |

No I've never viewed life as a sequence of goals to achieve. That's possibly because I have to deal with little chunks at a time due an habitual sense of 'winging it', so I try to be content with the little wins ie, my children are fed, my house is clean and I've done some college work (go Nell!) |

"I do lists when planning things for work, holidays, Xmas, in fact for pretty much everything apart from "life"
There are some things I just want to enjoy not plan 
Nita"
This is like me. I don't want a list because I worry I'd make decisions differently to fit it and just to tick things off for the sake of it. |

All I could think was "Wow, that's cool - I wonder how much his public liability insurance costs." |

"No but I shall be writing one for the second part of my life. "
I think I'm getting to this stage too. There's still plenty I want to achieve and lots still to do. Probably only a few MUST do things though. Best get cracking... |

I've never been one for lists, my main goal in life is in the raising of my children to have the most opportunities in life that I can give them.... Other than that I tend to bump along like some sort of brownium motion and live for the moment.
This isn't always a good thing.... |

I had a list of twenty possibly achievable things to do before I was 40. Managed to do 18, only failed on driving East to west coat in U.S. and learning to play guitar. Bought a guitar aged 39 but failed to master it though. Will do the whole U.S. road trip one day buy possibly when I retire and emigrate again. |

I suppose the next things on my list are to sell my flat and buy a house, and give up my part time job so I only have to work my full time one. I may not be able to give it up totally but it's looking good that I can cut back after Xmas |

I will never afford my own place, but more than happy renting. I plan on working full time in a couple of years. |
