Impossible List

The idea of a bucket list first properly crossed my mind after watching the The Bucket List, starring Morgan Freeman and Jack Nicholson. It’s a nice feel-good movie if you get a chance.

I saw the concept of an Impossible list on Thomas Frank’s blog, who himself got it from the Impossible HQ.

What’s the difference? A bucket list is static, small list of one-time feats. An impossible list on the other hand is an ever-evolving list of things to do that complement each other. It requires you to take action right now.

It inspires you and helps you focus on enjoying the journey than reaching a destination. Habits and actions that help you grow one percent better than the person you were yesterday.

Years after first thinking of it, I guess today is the day we finally actualize it. I’ve written the introduction to this post on 14th April, 2024, and will keep getting updated with cool ideas, quests, and completed checkmarks.

While this list is very personal, I hope if it inspires even a single person to live their life to the fullest, sharing it with the world would be worth it.
