Teddy’s 30 Before 30 List

The sun peaking out to say hello on Feb 1st

With my 26th birthday happening recently, I’ve been thinking a lot about the future and some goals I’d like to set (and complete) within the next few years.

I came across something called the 30 Before 30 list, which is where you create a list of 30 things you want to accomplish before you turn 30.

Some people will start the list at 25, and others will start it at 29.

I thought I’d give myself a few years to complete it! 🙂

Here’s my list! ❤

  1. Write 100 blog posts

2. Travel outside of the United States

3. Sell more art work

4. See 30 National Parks (Less than 15 to go!)

5. Learn pottery

6. Try 10 new foods

7. Pay off my student loans

8. Take a dance class

9. Pay off my car payment

10. Run a half marathon (I’ve done this virtually but would love to do it in person one day)

11. Learn to snowboard

12. Learn/ become more proficient with a language other than English

13. Go on another backpacking trip

14. Try slacklining (I would have to get over my fear of heights for this one)

15. Have a photoshoot

16. Take an art class

17. Learn to surf

18. Go on a creative retreat (either for art or writing)

19. Join a bookclub

20. Learn to cook and master 3 recipes

21. Paint on a giant canvas

22. See the Northern Lights

23. Begin investing/saving (looking into a 401k and Roth IRA)

24. Live abroad (for at least one month)

25. Learn to rock climb outdoors

26. Write a book

27. Get a new tattoo

28. Adopt a pet

29. Go to a speakeasy

30. Do 30 days of no spending ( with the exception of paying bills)

If you get inspired by my list, you can create your own list (30 before 30, 40 before 40, 50 before 50 etc.) !

Thanks for reading along!

XOXO
