My Top Bucket List Focus and My Motivation Behind It

My top bucket list goal right now is to organize my life so I can increase my focus, productivity, free time and happiness.

The First Step I’ll Take To Make This Happen

Updating my bucket list right now with the due dates was my first step in making this happen.

My Action Plan Layout For My Top Bucket List Focus

I’m going to continue to follow the due dates and steps that I laid out for each task in my bucket list, and I’ll continue my bucket list as needs arise.

I already completed 5 of my Top Bucket List Focuses!

1. Number 1 was writing for Curve Magazine. You can read about it here: Curve Mag.
2. Number two was re-launching the Love Warrior Community, you can see it here: LWC.
3. Number 3 was focusing on my Community Bucket List Contest, which finished successfully and developed into a Community Bucket list Mastermind Group. You can read about Community Bucket List here: CBL.
4. Number 4 was to win the dot429 LGBTQ What Drives You Contest. I got 2nd place. I was behind by like 15 votes. Close. Cool side note, I went to a dot429 networking event in SF. A friend I made via a Curve Magazine interview, Sam Needham, won a ticket to the networking event and gave it to me. As I’m walking towards the door, I meet with this lady who was interviewed in Curve the previous year, we chat and exchange business cards. As I enter the venue, the woman at the door greets me by my name. She recognized me from the dot429 contest. Another side note, that dot429 networking event was A BLAST! I didn’t win first, but taking part in that contest created some great experiences.
5. Number 5 was to go to London for the Stonewall Talent Programme.
