After listening to motivational speaker Sebastian Terry, I decided to create my own list of “100 things” that I hope to complete over a 20-year timeframe. I just recently started assembling my list at the end of April, so I only have about 20 items on my list so far. They range from serving a meal at a homeless shelter to driving at NASCAR. On May 18th, 2023, I was able to check off my first item, which was flying an airplane (Cessna Skyhawk 172). It was one of the best experiences of my life as I flew the plane for over 40 minutes! I encourage everyone to look up Sebastian Terry and his list of “100 things” — it’s a great story, very inspirational, and it helps you to identify things that will help bring value, joy and purpose to your life.
