What's on your 'Soon List'?

Most people have (or at least understand the concept of) a 'bucket list'. Quite often though, the things we have on our bucket list are 'big ticket' items - things that take a lot of cash, or time, or planning or even courage.

Alongside your bucket list, it's a good idea to have what Steve J Scott calls a 'Soon List' - the things you'd like to enjoy soon (in the next month, for example) and the things that are more easily done/can be planned into your day-to-day life.

Some examples of things that can go on your 'Soon List' are:

• a trip to the seaside
• a family meal or get-together
• a hike to/in/around your favourite beauty spot
• a date night with your partner
• a meet-up with a friend you're in danger of losing touch with since you retired
• a commitment to read the latest book by your favourite author on the day it's released
• find out about volunteering
• visit/take part in all this summer's 16 unmissable events in Greater Manchester

Then you have to make time to actually do the things on your list.  You have to book the restaurant or call your friend. or schedule the get-together and tell everyone about it. But, as Steve Scott says: 'If you keep an ongoing list of fun activities then you'll proactively create opportunities to enjoy life a little more'.  (And who could argue against that?)

So... what's going on your 'Soon List'?
