While my heart beats

 
 Your heart beats about 4,800 times per hour. 

That's a whopping 115,200 times per day.

 Your Heart Beats 42 million times in a year.

If you live to be 80 years old, your heart would have beaten approximately 3,363,840,000 times!

What will you have hoped to accomplish in those 3,363,840,000 beats?


By the time I had reached the age of 11 I had already lost someone close to me.
Their heart never reached 3,363,840,000 beats..
How do you want to spend  your heart beats?

Here is a number of things I hope to accomplish with my heart beats before the age of 30.

  1. Become financially independent from your parents: 
  2. Decide what you truly want from a relationship and stop settling for anything less than that
  3. Go off on an adventure:
  4. Get in shape:
  5. Set goals for yourself and accomplish them
  6. Find a career you really love
  7. Do some serious activism or volunteer work
  8. Develop your own set of principles
  9. Stop comparing yourself to others:
  10. Graduate from college
  11. Love and accept yourself
  12. Face your fears
  13. Realize there is good and bad in everyone
  14. Have a savings account that you contribute to every month
  15. Learn to control your anger:
  16. Be able to accept criticism:
  17. Learn how to say “no"
  18. Realize that every phase of life has something new and good to offer
  19. Do some soul searching
  20. Make a decision regarding kids
  21. Learn another language
  22. Get rid of bad habits
  23. Forgive yourself
  24. Forgive your parents
  25. Get rid of toxic friends
  26. Stop trying to change people
  27. Fall in love with yourself
  28. Do something “crazy”
  29. Take other people’s advice
  30. Deal with your issues
These are things I hope to accomplish and strive for. A lot on this list is what I will discuss and talk about during my blog.

  3. I love how some of the things on your list are easy to measure (graduate from college) and some are not (realize there is good and bad in everyone).

    Great list. Great list.
