What Would You Do If You Could Do Anything At All?

No limitations, no restrictions, no caveats, just do the thing you desire to do.

A book with a list. You can do anything when you start with mindfulness

Lots of people talk about bucket lists. Those things they would do without restrictions, obligations, financial issues, and so on.

Additionally, lots of people have things they will do when they have enough money, lose enough weight, get that promotion, publish the book, dump the dead-weight relationship, and so on. Get that one thing done, the prerequisite must be met, and then you do the thing.

While many of those things are probably tangibles, like trips to exotic places, visits to expensive spas, fancy cars, new clothes, and the like, many more are sensations. Experiences. Intangibles.

Often, at least in my life, the restrictions, prerequisites, and the like were covers for other things. Fears mostly. The necessary benchmarks needed to be reached are unnecessary obstacles. While these are frequently blamed on outside influences, the more I look at this the more I think that’s an excuse.

Often, what we would do if we could do anything at all is a lot less grand than it’s played up to be.

It’s the intangible experiences we desire most
