I have been so excited to share this with you...

Guess what!?

A dream of mine JUST came true!

While at the Engage Today event in Calgary, Alberta last month, I got to meet the Dalai Lama! It was SO awesome! He is one of the most compassionate and kind souls I have ever met.

Here's the whole story of how we met:

Here's a photo of the Dalai Lama blessing me! It was surreal.

Oh and check this - the Dalai Lama likes my book. hehe.

Man, it sure feels great to cross something else of my bucket list!

Have you crossed anything off yours lately? Share it with me below.

Peace,

I know, because it changed mine.

Listen to my story below:

Several years ago I was raced to the ER at 3:00am in excruciating pain in my lower back. I was in so much pain that I thought I was dying.

While awaiting the Doctor to come in, I decided to do something that drastically altered the course of my life.

I found a napkin and a pen and wrote down a list of life goals. Now, I should mention that these goals weren't small by any means. They are massive goals. Things I wasn't even sure I could ever do!

I started writing and didn't stop until I made a list of about 32 things I knew I HAD to achieve in my life time.

It was then that I made a promise. I said, "God, if you let me live through this, I promise to complete everything on I wrote on this list."

Luckily, I survived that day and since have completed a number of goals on that list.

I have thrown the first pitch at a Chicago Whitesox game (you can watch that video here), wrote a book (my first book "Get Off Your 'But'" was published earlier this year), scuba-dived, went back- packing through Egypt with my closest friends, went on a date with Natalie Portman (ok, that hasn't happened yet but it will) and this October I have the chance to speak at an event with the Dalai Lama!

Want to know the best part?

I am having the time of my life I know it's no where near over yet!

Now, what I want YOU to do is pull out a piece of paper and a pen and create your own bucket list of all the things you've ever wanted to experience or have in your life. You know you're on the right track when what you write down makes your heart pound with excitement and a little bit of fear.

You don't have to wait until you are in the hospital at 3:00am to do this. Do it right now. Start doing things that make you feel alive, that draw you towards your future.

Show your bucket list to as many people as possible. You never know what opportunities will arise.

Please share your bucket list with me in the comments section below.

I would love to hear from you.
