<p>This little piece of advice will <strong>radically alter your life</strong>.</p>
<p>I know, because it changed mine.</p>
<p>Listen to my story below:</p>
<p><a href="http://www.livingatcause.com/blog/33/create-your-bucket-list/"><em>Click here to view the embedded video.</em></a></p>
<p>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 <strong>I thought I was dying</strong>.</p>
<p>While awaiting the Doctor to come in, I decided to do something that <em>drastically</em> altered the course of my life.</p>
<p>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. <strong>They are massive goals</strong>. Things I wasn't even sure I could ever do!</p>
<p>I started writing and didn't stop until I made a list of about 32 things I knew I <strong>HAD</strong> to achieve in my life time.</p>
<p>It was then that I made a promise. I said, "<em>God, if you let me live through this, I promise to complete everything on I wrote on this list.</em>"</p>
<p>Luckily, I survived that day and since have completed a number of goals on that list.</p>
<p>I have<strong> thrown the first pitch</strong> at a Chicago Whitesox game (<a title="First Pitch At WhiteSox Game" href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-l6NuUUjutE" target="_blank">you can watch that video here</a>), <strong>wrote a book</strong> (my first book "<a title="Buy Sean's Book" href="http://www.amazon.com/dp/0470399937?tag=seancstephewe-20&amp;camp=14573&amp;creative=327641&amp;linkCode=as1&amp;creativeASIN=0470399937&amp;adid=02TKRG55SSX6KF6VAAM7&amp;" target="_blank">Get Off Your 'But'</a>" was published earlier this year), <strong>scuba-dived</strong>, went <strong>back- packing</strong> through Egypt with my closest friends, went on a <strong>date with Natalie Portman</strong> (ok, that hasn't happened yet but it will) and this October I have the chance to speak at an event with the<strong> Dalai Lama</strong>!</p>
<p>Want to know the <strong><em>best</em></strong> part?</p>
<p>I am having the time of my life I know it's no where near over yet!</p>
<p>Now, what I want YOU to do is pull out a piece of paper and a pen and <strong>create your own bucket list</strong> 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 <strong>excitement</strong> and a little bit of <strong>fear</strong>.</p>
<p>You don't have to wait until you are in the hospital at 3:00am to do this. <strong>Do it right now</strong>. Start doing things that make you feel alive, that draw you towards your future.</p>
<p>Show your bucket list to as many people as possible. You never know what opportunities will arise.</p>
<p>Please share your bucket list with me in the comments section below.</p>
<p>I would <strong>love</strong> to hear from you.</p>
<p><em><strong>Sean</strong></em></p>
