Introduction
I’m a walking example of what it’s like to go from thinking about my dream life all the time to actually living it. It wasn’t an easy journey but it sure the hell was worth it! Now I have a business that inspires people to do what I do, live their bucket list.
This is a very short book and I want it that way for I can tell you in just a handful of pages why “living your list” can be one of the best choices you can make in your life. I’m hoping to turn the novelty of a bucket list into a life-‐planning tool that starts you down the path of living a life you want, so you become one of those people that others talk about and are envious of because you live such an extraordinary life.
The pages that follow will hopefully redefine the old concept of a Bucket List and give you an idea of what’s possible, give you a reason to pursue your list, and show you how it can impact your life and all the people that surround you.
If you take the time to give this process a try I
can promise you that you will get inspired, motivated
Dream It. List It. Do It. Live It!

and clear that it’s time to live a BIGGER life than you may be living now. Pursue your list with passion and commitment and your life will improve and change for the best. Today my goal is to get you thinking outside the box of your normal life and exploring the big open play land called – All Things Possible. For today and each day forward, this is true!
Now let’s get started with identifying your
dream life…
No Regrets, Live Your List™

Evolution of the Bucket List
The concept of the Bucket List has been around forever. It’s a common phrase but not a commonly used practice. After really sitting down and creating my list I wondered why it took me 42 years to go through this process. I was immediately inspired!
Over the past couple years I have consciously pursued my list and in doing so I’ve decided to re-‐phase Bucket List to something I feel is more true to what I’m practicing and experiencing. I use another phrase that I believe embodies what we’re up to here. Life-‐List. So for now on, I will refer to the bucket list as a Life-‐List. Indeed we want to have these experiences while we are still alive and well. Right?
Dream It. List It. Do It. Live It!

A Life-‐List is exactly what I’m hoping you’ll create here; a list that defines your dream life. I realized in pursuing my list that it was everything that I wanted to experience in life – the places I wanted to travel, the things I wanted to do, the things I wanted to buy or experience, the connections, success, contributions and transformations – all made it on my list. It was a great BIG picture view of my dream life.
If in the very least I’m able to inspire you to start a Life-‐List of your own then I’ll feel like I accomplished something. A Never Ending Life Tool
Over the past year as I’ve shared this message with people I’ve seen a number of people respond in a few interesting ways. My favorite is – “I’ve already achieved my bucket list. There is nothing left to do.”
Hmmm, I don’t think that’s possible. Maybe
they forgot how to dream because there is ALWAYS something to experience.
A Life-‐List never ends in my opinion. There are always new levels of our dream life. Even if you

have all the success you need, there are ways for you to contribute to and teach others. Even if you have traveled the world, there is always a new place that will inspire you. Even if you have all the material things you want, you can still experience transformation through giving to others and seeing their joy.
Get creative with your list and it will never
end. Having something to look forward to keeps us vibrant and alive.
Dream It. List It. Do It. Live It!

Going From a Life-List To The Actual Experience
Like I said the creation of a Life-‐List was
already an inspiring act. While doing it I envisioned myself having those experiences. But I knew having a list wouldn’t be enough for me. I decided to commit to making that list my mission to achieve, as much as possible.
I’ll tell you right now if you spend time on creating a Life-‐List, having it stay “just a list” will not be enough for you either. Good news… it doesn’t have to.
So how do we turn the list into a reality?
First, you need to get committed. Follow some of the practices in this mini-‐book and that will help. Use our Live Your List Planner and it will keep you committed and focused.
Next, most items on a Life-‐List require planning. A Life-‐List is not the same as normal daily

experiences, where they just show up. However, a list does not have to be hard and if you focus your energy on having that experience, it will eventually happen.
Last, you have to take action. A list becomes a reality through action. Commit and plan and action will follow. Saying a daily affirmation to keep you committed is always a great tool to use. Let’s do that right now so you can start moving forward with you dream life.
Write out a simple sentence that inspires you to stay the course. For example; Today I’m committed to living the life I’m destined and now ready to experience. I am attracting my dream life to me now. Write your own here: _______________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________
Dream It. List It. Do It. Live It!

Purpose and Impact
When you identify the purpose of an item on your list and you visualize the impact it will have on your life, it will have more “attractive” power to the actual experience. In other words, you’ll draw that experience to you faster than if you didn’t define these two things. Why pursue your dream life?
Figure this question out because it will give your overall Life-‐List more meaning. When you visualize yourself having those experiences get clear on how your life be impacted, how the people around you will be impacted, and how people you contribute to in the process be impacted.
Both purpose and impact are two powerful energies to focus on in the Live Your List process. You can start out at a level 5 enthusiasm and go to a level 8 or 9 after you give your list meaning (purpose and impact). That jump can make all the difference in the world to your commitment, planning and action.

The Manifesting Process
In my previous business I taught personal growth messages to people around the world. The work was rewarding, however like I said it wasn’t my true passion. My passion is now my list J.
What got me started on that journey was a manifesting process I developed around the Law of Attraction called the “Habit of Attraction”. I witnessed some major transformations from teaching this process, mainly because we studied the flow of energy and how it plays its role in what we experience.
The Live Your List process is all about creating habits, but around your Life-‐List. Once you start that list, which you’ll do at the end of this book, or use the list you already have, you’ll activate a manifesting energy that is proven to draw things to you. The first principle of this process is…
All things are made up of energy
Not just the obvious things, but ALL things like our Thoughts (energy generated from ideas), Words (the
Dream It. List It. Do It. Live It!
15
things we say to ourselves and others), our Feelings (the emotions we have around something), and Action, which is energy in motion.
I call these the four energy points of manifesting. And… if they are not aligned with each other, then manifesting becomes difficult. You experience a PUSH – PULL energy.
For example, if you think about having an experience all the time but your words are pushing you away from that experience (“I can’t do that” for example) then you’re not aligned.
If you think about, talk about, and feel strongly towards an experience but never take any action towards that experience, then you will most often not have that experience. Again, you’re not aligned.
The Live Your List process is all about the alignment of these four energies. Your Life-‐List, your commitments, your planning and your actions are all designed to align these energies.
Since everything is energy, your goal is to raise up your energy level to the same energy of the
No Regrets, Live Your List™
16
experience you want. What do I mean by level? All energy has a “vibration” to it. Our vibration is linked to our beliefs, past experiences, conditions and rules we live by. To change our vibration we often need to move beyond our old way of thinking, speaking, feeling and doing things.
For example -‐ if you want to go on a weekend trip, that experience compared to your overall beliefs, past experiences, and conditions may not be that far off in vibration to where you are at now.
But if you were to want a month long trip to Europe, which you’ve never experienced before, your beliefs, past experiences and conditions are not yet aligned or a match to the vibration of what is needed to make that trip a reality. This is where the manifesting work you do with these four energies and the process in this book comes into play.
The way I explain the idea of energy in this manifesting process is by visually describing energy using the word “light”. Not a spiritual term per say but light being a way to “visualize energy” in this process (think ball of light).
Dream It. List It. Do It. Live It!
17
Let’s start there: Everything has a “starting energy” and that happens after you have a thought about that thing. So, we “start” the energy of our dream life by creating our Life-‐List, which is another reason why a physical Life-‐List is important.
Once we pick something from our list to focus on we are given the opportunity to start increasing our connection to that items vibrational energy. Imagine that light starting as a small ball and then building into a larger ball of light as you do this manifesting work (see image below).
No Regrets, Live Your List™
18
When you start planning that item to be your experience and every time, I mean EVERY time, you do something towards that experience becoming your reality, you increase your energetic connection to it. Out goes the energy and in comes the energy, increasing your vibration (look at the image again to see incoming and outgoing energy).
Now you think about that experience each day… you say words (affirmations) that increase your belief of that being your experience one day… you feel into what it would be like to have that experience (purpose and impact)… and you take some kind of action towards that item.
Once you have raised that energy up to the level of vibration that the experience is at, it will find it’s way to you. You will have “attracted” it into your life.
This whole process is the reason why making
a list is just not enough. Especially for the bigger dreams you have. Being conscious and in control of the energy you put out, at least through these four energies, puts you in the drivers seat of your life. It’s not a matter of whether it will happen; it’s when.
Dream It. List It. Do It. Live It!
19
The Live Your List Planner that is designed to “implement” the ideas in this mini-‐book uses this manifesting process with each item you decide to plan. It gets into the details of the item, breaking it down, so you can identify ways to attract it into your life.
It taps into the four energies – thoughts,
words, feelings and actions – and if you stay the course with what the planner guides you through then you WILL increase your connection to that Life-‐List item.
Even if you don’t have the planner, you can
use this simple “energy boosting” process to not only experience your life-‐list but to attract anything into your life. Give it a try; just make sure you keep it simple because… it is!

Words of Wisdom
Here are some words of wisdom that I have discovered along the way working on my dream life. Hopefully these will help. Life Begins At The End Of Your Comfort Zone
This is very true and… unavoidable in this process. You will be uncomfortable, but hey that’s how we grow and experience new things. So get used to it and know that just right around the corner is something really amazing.
Dream It. List It. Do It. Live It!
21
Yes, Sometimes It Will Suck! Changing your life sometimes sucks but if it
were easy wouldn’t everyone be doing it? Suckness is a fact of life, however you may have to wade through some muck before you get there. Just know that it’s all part of the process and if you move through those tough times as if it was part of a game, the feeling will be less intense. Not Everyone Will Agree With or Support You
Yes, imagine that. You go after your dreams and people have an issue with it. It’s not until they see you transform and live your dream life that they finally come around. Be a light unto the darkness for them. Show them the way by living your list.
You NEED a Physical List
A mental list is not good enough. Put your Life-‐List somewhere (notebook, smartphone, the Live Your List Planner). Don’t “think” you’ll remember it. A mental list does NOT have the power a physical list has, so

trust me on this… get it on paper. You May Have To Make Some Big Decisions
In order for me to have the life I have now I had to give up something that took me years to build (my business). Eventually I was fine with it because I was crazy unhappy in it, but it allowed me to release some major energy that was holding me back. Is it a job? A relationship? A belief? The place you live? The education you spent a ton of money on that totally doesn’t relate to your true passions? What is it for you?
No Matter What, You Are Manifesting
I don’t care what you believe or what resistance you may or may not have to the concept of manifesting, when you go after your list, you are in a
Dream It. List It. Do It. Live It!
23
manifesting process. Get good at this process and you can create an unstoppable life with experiences beyond your wildest imagination. I’m adding ideas to my list that I never thought would be there. Let’s see what happens with you. You Will Change Your Rules and Beliefs The reason why more people don’t live their true dream life is because they have been conditioned to believe that it’s not possible. They either have beliefs about themselves, others or life in general that holds them back. Or they have rules that prevent them from taking that leap. This is why you are almost guaranteed to be uncomfortable when first pursuing your life-‐life. And going back to the first piece of wisdom in this chapter – Life will begin for you at the end and outside your comfort zone.
Use a journal or the Live Your List Planner to keep track of the beliefs that pop up for you when you are faced with taking action on an item. Check in with the rules that you impose on yourself that may block your way. Just being aware of these two things will make a major difference in how you move forward.
