I had this thought recently about creating a syllabus for life, a list of things to learn, and read and do. It’s more work than a bucket list, perhaps, and there will be many tests, but it’s good work if you can get it. 

• Know yourself.
• Learn to love yourself. 
• Exercise.
• Eat well and develop a healthy relationship with food. 
• Find and respect your boundaries and limits. 
• Volunteer.
• Learn another language.
• Travel outside your comfort zone. 
• Keep learning.
• When starting something new, remember you will suck at it. Push through the suck.
• Consider your spiritual life. 
• Know that you are enough. 

What’s on your syllabus of life?
