Every day brings along a plethora of opportunities, and it is not worth waiting for New Year to formalise them into an endless list of resolutions (of course it is not worth it, especially when you can do it everyday).
I confess. Yes, I am a big fan of plans and lists and busy schedules and diaries! And though I am not so sure about how I feel about executing these plans later on, this has not stopped me at all to keep coming up with more and more projects.
Therefore, and on the eve of a new decade, I have produced my own personal bucket list, tailored to my current needs but without forgetting about more long-term dreams and aspirations. Ambitious? Probably, but after all, Life is a Dream, isn't it, Calderon?
