I stumbled upon this bizzare concept of compiling a list of things you would ever want to do in your life. It’s unlike a typical bucket list. It doesn’t matter if you every cross all of it. But having a list makes you motivated and determined to atleast give it a shot. I came across this while I was reading Thomas Frank’s blog. He credits this original idea to Joel Runyon. Joel’s blog is now defunct, but you could still access it on the Wayback Machine.
Your Impossible List could vaguely consists of the following things:
Things you want to do with your life.
Things you want to do, but have told yourself is “impossible”
Things you want to do, but someone else told you was impossible.
So here’s my stab at it.
