play along!

in yesterday’s post, i took my friend katherine’s lead and created a “fantasy to do list.”

the purpose of a fantasy to do list is to start thinking beyond all of the many obligations that abound long enough to envision what life might look like with a little added refrains of fun. items on these lists have a strange way of slipping out of the hypothetical world and into our real lives! just try it. you’ll see.

to play along:

  1. just scurry over to your own blog or facebook page and create your own list (however long or short) of things you would love to do. don’t let time or resources hold you back.
  2. link to my blog by either grabbing my button (html code is located in the sidebar to your right) or simply attaching the link to this post, which is http://www.themsrevolution.com/2010/05/26/play-along/.
  3. comment on this post or email me (themsrevolution[at]gmail[dot]com) and let me know you’re playing.
  4. then, for those who have blogs, i’ll link from my blog to yours so we can all be inspired by each other’s lists. whether you’re playing along on facebook or on a blog, let me know if you accomplish a fantasy “to do,” in the coming weeks so i can give you a shout out on my blog!
  5. invite your friends to play too!

here’s what the button looks like:

now go make those lists! have more fun!

who’s playing:

  • stacy
  • lane (facebook)
  • secret agent mom
  • megan
  • katherine (the originator of the fantasy to do list)
  • kathi

    I know I am ridiculously late, but I did one as well! Maybe I should have put “always be on time” on my list…
