Before i die, i want to....

If you read my previous blog post, i had a very tough time adjusting my posture while working. But i am making some progress, unfortunately i do not have any pictures as proof. Its been a while since i rambled on something.

You may hear a lot of people saying or writing, Before i die i want to (BIDIW2); the end is either one thing or a list of things. Some people are even very diligent about writing it on their blog, wall, office desk, etc. Usually if you care enough to write it down then you care enough to do it. I am a big believer of the "BIDIW2" framework (funny that i term it as a framework, being in the software development world has made every little thing "framework"). The only problem that i have with it is the limits it puts on you to do something and is also one of the reason i don't write it down.

Writing a task and finishing it gives you a sense of achievement but it also makes you complacent which may stop you to explore new things. I started very small, driving my Honda Civic at 90 MPH (i am not proud of myself, but i just wanted to do it once). I became more adventurous and finished a road trip from the East coast to the West coast, then hiking the highest peak in Northeast America (Mount Washington), start a blog, etc.

You get the idea by now, what i am trying to say. OK, let me spell it out for you. You don't have to put limits on yourself and you don't need a magic pill to be LimitLess. If you have something on your mind, don't hesitate, just go for it.

What do you have on your list ?
