‘The List’

I am a firm believer in goal setting, list writing and general organisation so when the concept of a “Bucket List” was brought up, I was instantly inspired. After my friend Cait called me a ‘morbid shite’ I decided to move away from the concept of a death list, and more towards 10 things I want to achieve in the next year. I will blog my progress, and probably ask for some advice along the way! Some of the things on my list may seem superficial, but I want to have fun with it too.

01) grow and cultivate a pink rosebush
02) learn meditation
03) learn to cook 5 beautiful dishes
04) work up my fitness to be able to run for 45 minutes without having to stop
05) buy a pair of christian louboutin heels
06) grow my hair halfway down my back
07) decorate the bedroom properly
08) read 50 of the top 100 books of all time (I figure 100 is a bit much for 1 year)
09) join and regularly donate to a charity (the RSPCA)
10) get my teeth professionally whitened

So far I have visited the rose nursery to check out the lovely standard roses, and have picked out possible paint colours for our bedroom. My first question to you all is – have you ever studied meditation? And if so do you have any advice for me? I would be interested in a good book/tape that might help me out in some way…
