I think most of us have had that list in our heads. You know - the one that has everything we ever wanted to do in life. It could be the immediate future, 10 years from now, or just a general feeling that you want to do it at some time along your journey in life.

I found a website called 43 things. You find your goals from a list that everyone else has contributed to, or you just add your own goals. You can cheer for other people to complete there goals and they can do the same for you. Friends can be invited to each goal to work together with you on them.

As you complete each goal, you can mark it off and have your say. Sharing stories is pretty fun to write and read about. I have found it helpful in some areas where people left comments that are very helpful.

So what are my 43 things that I am doing? Here is my current list:

1. learn more than the basics of Adobe Photoshop
