(upbeat music) Hello, and welcome to the Accountability Coach podcast, where we will discuss topics, ideas, questions, and issues related to having a totally balanced and successful life. This is Ann Bakrak. Today, we're going to talk about real life isn't boring, how to live life with no regrets. Life goes by so quickly. Don't miss out on the extraordinary opportunities you have to live life without regret. Ask yourself this question. If you left this world tomorrow, would you feel as if you live life to the fullest extent? While you can't turn back the clock and change the past events, would you? If you had the power, change the way things are now. Perhaps you would change where you live, your financial status, or improve your personal relationships. Maybe you would drive a different car, play more golf, travel to exotic places, be more physically fit and healthy, or relax in a hammock on the beach. You're probably thinking, "Oh, that sounds great, but that's not real life. You can't spend your life in a hammock." Well, then let me ask you, what is real life supposed to be about? Work, responsibility, bills, more work. You may be tempted to answer yes, but hold that thought. This is where most of us get it all wrong. Most of us were taught that being an adult is about being responsible, and life is not about having fun. You're supposed to have it all, you're fun when you're a child. Then grow up and live responsibly in the real world. No fun. I challenge you to break that false perception and create a new rule of your very own. If you could live life exactly as you wanted, what would you change? Without even realizing it, you could probably come up with at least three things that would involve less work and more fun. So go ahead, try it. If you could change three things in your life, right now, what would they be? Here are just a few examples. Work less, travel more. Spend more time with my children. Okay, it's your turn. What three things would you change? When you look at these three things that you wrote down or thought about, why would you change these particular things? Or what aspects would you change? Next, write or think about a specific reason for wanting to change these three things. So I have more time and energy to do the things I like to do, like work on the house or watch football or go fishing with the boys. I'd like to explore the world and take more romantic trips with my spouse or significant other. Spending time with my children makes me feel good. Even when I'm down, they make me laugh. Those are just three examples. Now it's your turn. Why would you change these particular three things? What are three reasons for wanting to change these three things that you wrote down or thought about? (crickets chirping) When you wrote down your reasons, did you notice that they probably have nothing to do with responsibility and boredom? Still, think life is supposed to be like one dull ride. The things that matter most to you and the things that allow you to live life to the fullest are always the things that make you feel good. This is where you have to retrain your mind to think of life in a whole new perspective, perhaps. Real life is not about being bored, exhausted, frustrated, or even unhappy. Real life is about experiencing the things that allow you to feel whole, feel free, and blissful. Do not waste one more day of your precious life. Take stock of the life you live now and the life you would like to live and start moving in that direction. Here's how to get started. Make a list of 100 things you would like to do before life's end. From your list of 100 things you would like to do, make a list of 10 long-term goals, and long-term could be anywhere from five to 20 or more years from now. If you're tempted to write down more than 10 goals, go for it. Now, put these in priority order with those most important to you at the top of the list. Once you begin accomplishing your goals, cross them off and add new ones. Now that you have your long-term goals, you can create short-term goals. Long-term goals don't happen overnight and there's always a series of smaller steps that you might want to take over time to get to those long-term goals. The idea is to break down the long-term goals into smaller bite-sized steps that can be achieved now or in the near future. Make a list of 10 short-term goals, and again, those can be anywhere from one day to three years from now. If you're tempted to write down more than 10 goals, stay on that roll, keep going. Remember to prioritize your list. Once you begin accomplishing your goals, cross them off and add new ones. Your short-term goals should encompass easy actions that you can begin taking today. Some steps may require only a few hours, while others will require one week, six months or longer. Start with short-term goals that are the building blocks to your most desired long-term goals and the easiest to complete. What you're looking for are the goals that carry the biggest bang in the shortest amount of time. To be sure you now have a new perspective on living life to the fullest, I challenge you to find one goal on your list of 100 things that are boring or adult life, adult life. If you found one or more, shame on you. Nothing on that list should be anything remotely close to boring. Go back and review your list. If you find anything remotely boring, stop and ask yourself if you really want that or is that something you think someone else wants you to achieve. The only items on that list should be the things you want because you want them. No one else can help you live your life without regret, which is why your goal should always be what you want, not what someone else wants for you. Utilize the quality of life and hands or exercise. It's an online complimentary exercise to help you create your list. You can find this online tool at www.accountabilitycoach.com. Share it with your family and others you think would benefit from this great exercise. Create the kind of life you truly want and one with no or fewer regrets.
