A while ago, I read an article about a man who when he was 17 or so made a list
of things he wanted to do before he died. By the time he died, he had done
something like 2/3 of them. I'd like to find both the original list, and which
ones he accomplished.
Hi there,
I believe the man you are referring to is Dr. John Goddard. At age 15 John
Goddard created a list of 127 challenging lifetime goals. He is famous for the
following quote, "To dare is to do, to fear is to fail."
John Goddards List of lifetime goals can be found on several sites including
WAMware.com
http://www.wamware.com/world-religions/life-list.htm
and 1Nomad.com
http://www.1nomad.com/admiration/goddard2.htm
On both sites, those items on the list that were achieved are marked off (with
an x or an *). Youll note that the items checked off the two lists do not
match. It does not seem that one list is simply more current because the
unchecked items do not match. For example, #9 Study Primitive Cultures in The
Congo is checked off at WAMware.com but not at 1Nomad.com, while #37 Carry
out careers in medicine and exploration is checked off at 1Nomad.com and not
at WAMware.com.
I do not know when either of the pages was last updated, but it seems John
Goddard has accomplished approximately 109 out of his 127 goals, or roughly 86%.
Both the pages above also include biographical information on Dr. Goddard.
