The Impossible List
The Impossible List is NOT a Bucket List 🪣. A bucket list is made up of someday dreams, the impossible list requires action today. A bucket list is focused on the event, the impossible list is focused on the journey (that’s why you will find me writing about the current state of the list items below).
