Better Inside EP 36

Better Inside Newsletter

Hello Adventurers! 

We often forget to take rest or pause in life because we are constantly bombarded with information and entertainment, which creates sadness and burnout. Recently, I realized the importance of taking a day off from everything: no social media, no Netflix, no books, no friends. I was literally feeling bored, as all of these things that I could easily afford held no meaning for me. Then I realized, 'Wow, this is what we humans need to understand.' We are constantly running after things like relationships, fame, etc., but real happiness lies in contentment—feeling happy in little things, little chats, and little moments so why rush!

I hope you all enjoy and cherish every moment of life.

Love,

Ammar

Activity: The Reverse Bucket List

I’d like to introduce you to the Reverse Bucket List. It’s like a bucket list—a list of lifelong goals—only instead of looking forward, the reverse bucket list looks back.

In the pursuit of future goals, we often overlook the milestones we've already achieved. So instead of skipping over all of your past accomplishments, consider making a list of them. It’s like a bucket list—just, well, in reverse. 

Start your list with the obvious things that come to mind, in whatever categories you think of, but don’t stop there. A good bucket list (as in, one that contains goals for the future) usually features items from a range of different categories: personal, professional, “adventure-y,” and so on.

Do the same for your Reverse Bucket List: diversify the categories so you can reflect on many different things you’ve already accomplished. Be proud of yourself!

  • What have you done that’s interesting or different? (By your own standards, of course.)

  • What have you got right with relationships?

  • What’s something you feel especially proud of?

  • How have you shown up for someone important—either yourself or someone you care for?

  • What’s a hard thing you managed to see through and overcome?

Finally, the Reverse Bucket List can be more than just a trip down memory lane. It might inspire you to set some new goals, or to revisit previous accomplishments and tackle them again in a new way.
