The Ultimate Wish List – 197 Unexpected Goals To Inspire Your Life


The road to wealth, health and happiness is paved from start to finish with 1 completed goal after the other – trouble is most of us forget to tread it.

This Wish List is designed as a primer to jog your imagination and get your manifestation juices flowing and help you become the person you want to be, living a life you love

It is not designed to get you thinking about what you think you might, or should be able to have, be or do. It’s been compiled to get you wondering about what YOU are prepared to put into life and what you intend to get out of it.

Don’t expect to be inspired or attracted every single thing on the list, just let your imagination go,  and use it to make your own list of the dreams, crazy things and whims that you think you’d probably never do or get round to but that you would kind of like to if the opportunity came along.

You might stumble on an idea that rocks your world and makes all the difference to what you can enjoy and achieve.

    Reading that list has reminded me of all the things I still want to do and
    how important it is to keep moving forward. Thanks Maya x

    • Valerie, thank you for the comment? Is there anything else you would add to the list? I’d love to know.

    • Maya x I’m sitting in this library with terrible reader’s block awaiting my dotors results and guess what I feel so all encompassingly happy and light right now!! We are talking about the stuff I crack open a bottle of wine to feel.
      I will make this site my new home.

    I always wanted to learn how to Tap Dance and also play the piano!!!! xx

  3. Greetings, I believe your website may be having web browser compatibility problems. When I take a look at your web site in Safari, it looks fine however, when opening in Internet Explorer, it’s got some overlapping issues. I just wanted to provide you with a quick heads up! Aside from that, excellent blog!

  4. Surprisingly helpful information that you have stated, thank you so much for posting.

  5. Undoubtedly the most profound bit of this really charming post was “The greatest gift you have been given is the gift of your imagination. Everything that now exists was once imagined. And everything that will ever exist must first be imagined. Everyone has a wish. What’s yours? We would love to hear about it.” This is a very spiritually imperative notion because spirituality has its very roots in creativity. After all CREATivity takes its root from CREATE. Just as the CREATor created the CREATures, so then he endowed them with the most bountiful and sublime gift of all, the power to control and direct your mind to whatever ends you desire. Always keep in mind, whatever the mind can conceive and BELIEVE , most certainly the mind can achieve. This has to be the most amazing and awe inspiring gift from Divin Providence to man, because it allows us to literally sculpt our reality out of the ether

  6. Well you can also share your scoreboard online and compare with other
    people. The only difference is that you will not be starting your first diner like Flo,
    but rather your first Pet Grooming shop. You would need a
    set-top box kind of unit which is the heart of Google TV.

  7. Woah! I’m really enjoying the template/theme of this blog.
    It’s simple, yet effective. A lot of times it’s hard to get that “perfect balance” between usability and visual appearance.
    I must say you’ve done a amazing job with this. In addition, the blog loads very fast for me on Safari.
    Superb Blog!

  8. I’m really happy to have found this post. It really got my creative juices going. I think I’ll go for numbers 27, 42, and 95.

  9. This design is wicked! You obviously know how to keep a reader
    amused. Between your wit and your videos, I was almost
    moved to start my own blog (well, almost…HaHa!) Wonderful job.
    I really enjoyed what you had to say, and more than that, how
    you presented it. Too cool!

  10. When the impact of communication technology has been overly positive,
    it has led to certain challenges.

  11. Howdy! This is my 1st comment here so I just wanted to give a quick shout out and tell you I genuinely enjoy reading your articles. Can you recommend any other blogs/websites/forums that deal with the same subjects? Many thanks!

  12. Good replies in return of this query with real arguments and telling all on the topic of that.

  13. Ms. Cecelia Earwood

    I would have to say that one of my greatest desires is, to somehow bring my family back together so that I can hear us cut up, laugh & love eachother freely again.
    When you have all of your immediate family near you, It’s easy to take for granted or think that it will forever be that way. Yet once some really unfortunate things have occurred that seem to negatively impacted all of your familial dynamics, that is a very sad day & one in which you learn what helplessness feels like, since no one person can control another’s mind, tongue or actions.
    I would give almost anything to not only enjoy each holiday with my family, but any & every day that we are so blessed to be in each other’s presence.
    I’m really enjoying your blog, so may God bless you & keep up your inspiring work please.

  14. I have read so many posts regarding the blogger lovers
    except this piece of writing is actually a nice post, keep it up.
