I listened to Sebastian Terry on the Kerwin Rae podcast and it motivated me to write a list - 100 things that will make my life happier. 

He did his own list when a friend suddenly died. He asked himself, 'If I died today, would I be able say 'I'm happy'? At the time the answer was no and for him it marked a massive change in his life purpose and circumstances. 

If you asked yourself this question, what would you say? 

Sadly, I believe that too many people get sick and die before they actually live their life to the fullest, or even believe that they can do so. Harsh words, I know. 

I resonated with so many things he said on the podcast, including:

• Finding purpose, having passion and helping people engage in acts of kindness lights him up inside
• It's important to prioritise happiness and feeling good above anything else
• Getting out of your comfort zone (the unknown) is what you need to do some of the time
• In everything, even the death of a loved one, theres an opportunity to learn
• Waking up excited about the day ahead is the best feeling ever
• A lot of people achieve goals but feel underwhelmed. This is a sign the goals that have been set don't align with your values 

If any of the above resonates, then read on! 

In this post, I'm inviting you to firstly take a look at your values, and then create your own 100 things list. 

 

Step 1 - Your values

This is such a great exercise. Along with helping you make your list in step 2, it also creates a wonderful foundation to make life decisions. 

My values are:

Health

Love 

Courage

Growth

Financial Freedom

My advice is to write down what immediately comes to mind, then sit on it for a week or so. Try to stick to 3-5 only. It took me ages to decided on these, I kept changing them, and wanting more than 5! If you're after some word inspiration, there is a good list here. 

 

Step 2: Your top 100 things

This is a list of the top 100 things to make you happier. Try to let go of restrictions and just write whatever comes to mind. Also, do this with a feeling of abundance and excitement - this is not meant to remind of you of what you don't have!! 

Here are mine, in no particular order. I had a lot of fun with this. I like that I could just write down all the crazy big and small things that come in and out of my mind, without needing to find a solution or achieve it straight away.

Seriously, this has been such a great exercise for me. I feel excited about all the opportunities and it's so nice to see it all in one place. 

These ideas are always popping in and it's sometimes overwhelming, or I beat them down with something like 'You can't afford that right now' or 'There's so much to do before then'. As I have been writing this list, I've put all those thoughts aside, and said 'It's just a list, write whatever you like'. Ohhhh so freeing. 

Now, your turn. You don't have to do the values exercise first. You may want to do the 100 things straight up. Remember, think ABUNDANCE and let your imagination run wild!! I'd love to hear from you if you'd like to share :)

You could write your 100 things inside your journal if you had one plug plug hee hee.
