The Unlimited List

The Unlimited List is not a bucket list. If I finish all these things, my life is not necessarily complete. Instead, it’s a list of crazy, awesome, challenging items I consider worthwhile of my pursuits.

It is a way for me to push my limits. A lot of these things seem improbable, unlikely, or downright impossible. But that’s half the fun: doing things I didn’t think I could.

This is my Unlimited List. It is not set in stone, and if I find new things I consider awesome and amazing, then I will add it to the list. I will regularly update it and blog about it. Hopefully it inspires you to question your life and look to improve, push, and challenge yourself as well.
