Life Goals

I used to hate making goals. Since I’ve altered my thinking from “goal setting” to “things I want to do before I’m a certain age” I have discovered that I have many goals. I have never done anything on this list, and I would like to accomplish all of them. I’ve also posted this same list under “Life Goals” over there —–>

Here are my 30 before 30 (in no particular order):

1. See Sufjan Stevens in concert
2. Eat lobster
3. Live within walking distance of a coffee shop/craft store/fancy cooking store (any would do)
4. Write a song other than ones I make up on the spot every day
5. See the Rocky Mountains
6. Take dance lessons
7. Completely gut and renovate an old house
8. Land a permanent contract job
9. Take voice lessons
10. Talk in an accent for an evening in order to convince a stranger that it’s real
11. Take a fancy cooking course (or several)
12. See Ingrid Michaelson in concert
13. Be a part of a show where people pay $20.00 or more to see
14. Sing in front of a crowd
