LAST week we asked you to tell us the things you have on your bucket list … which hopefully you’d complete by the end of this year – you know, just in case the world ends.

And guess what? You guys sure do have a lot of things you want to achieve!

Well, while it is easy to create a bucket list (basically a list of things you want to do before you ‘kick the bucket’), the hard part is completing everything on it.

Completing the bucket list may be difficult but rest assured that it’s not impossible. With the right attitude and mindset, you can definitely cross off everything you want to do on that list (provided that it’s not illegal, dangerous or fatal).

Plan out your goals

Break up your bucket list into small, medium and large goals. Things like climbing Mount Everest falls under large goals and shopping at … let’s say KLCC, should be under small goals.
Just start crossing off the little things first while working on your big dreams. Soon enough, you’ll find that the larger goals are easier to achieve.

Tell everyone

Yeah, everyone hates a braggart but in this case, you have to. The more you talk about the things you have achieved on your bucket list, the more motivated you’ll be in completing the rest.

Just make sure that you don’t brag too much otherwise you will be forced to add “Getting punched in the face” on your list.

Never give up
Just because someone laughs at your dream to learn how to yodel, it doesn’t mean you should give up.

Here’s what some of our readers shared about what they have on their bucket list. It can be safely said that they either want to go somewhere, meet someone famous or do something exciting.
