Impossible List
a bucket list, except better
Impossible what?
The Impossible List is like a bucket list on steroids. The first Impossible List was created by Joel Runyon, and I learned about from Omar Eletr's personal website.
I liked the idea, so I borrowed it from them.
My impossible list contains goals that would push my personal limits. Although personal, I still would love to share my list with the world to feel more accountable to get stuff on it done!
I might never get to cross off all or even most of the items below, but that's not the point. My goal is to enjoy the process of pursuing all of these aspirational goals!
