Long ago, I learned that creating a list of your dreams was a powerful tool in creating your life. Writing down a “wish list” of your wildest dreams sounds silly, but it works. It forces you to think about what you really want. It forces you to be clear and concise. It’s almost like a road map, guiding you as you manifest the things that you want in your life. And when you write down something you want, you’ll be more aware of any opportunities to manifest it.
Of course, sometimes things that you write down don’t happen. Why? Well, because you will only manifest your dreams if your dreams will bring you peace, and peace to those around you. If something goes against the grain of the universe, it won’t happen.
I made a list a few months ago. Virtually everything on it came true… from eating more berries to having three day weekends to working remotely.
So, since my plane to Argentina leaves in a few hours, I thought that it would be a good idea to list some of the things that I want to create/see/do in Buenos Aires.
- I want to try lots of new food
- I want to make at least three good friends
- I want to significantly improve my Spanish
- I want to see a waterfall (<– ooo good one!)
- I want to get a beautiful piece of art for my new condo
So there we have it. It’s a good starting place.
Now it’s your turn. Thing about the things you want in life, at work or wherever. Make a list. Then release it to the universe and see what happens. I bet you’ll be surprised!
And if you want, share that list with me in my comments. I’m curious to read them.

I’m spanish and I discover your site when I saw one of your videos in youtube. I never writted a list of wishes, but you are convinced me. I will do it.
I hope you improve your spanish too. Translate it to practise: Eres uno de los hombres más atractivos que he visto. Adoro tu voz.

I agree writing a dream sheet or wish list helps not only to accomplish one’s goals, but adds spice to one’s life. Let’s see… this year’s dreams are the following:
1. To go skydiving for the 1st time.
2. Travel to Hawaii (the Oahu Island)
3. Finish my Masters Degree by the end of the
summer.
4. Help earn money for the Children’s Miracle
Network to help children receive medical
care.
5. To buy me the same type of boxer briefs that
Dave was wearing on his blog video when he
explained to his bloggers “why i’m naked.” If
anyone knows please tell me. Lol- so I can
complete all five wishes.

I can’t believe how young you are and that you get it. “It” being life. Excellent attitude and hope to run in to you someday on the journey. Wicked!
