Small Steps Big Wins™ The Life-Changing Power of a Bucket List with Travis Bell Ep.157
In this episode of Small Steps, Big Wins, I sit down with “The Bucket List Guy,” Travis Bell, to uncover how a bucket list can truly transform the way we approach life. Travis brings over a decade of coaching experience, showing us that a bucket list is more than thrill-seeking; it’s about tapping into what brings us joy, purpose, and a deep sense of gratitude.
Key Discussion Points:
Redefining the Bucket List: Travis explains that a bucket list doesn’t have to be about extreme adventures—it’s about experiences that genuinely light us up. He introduces his “F-List,” focusing on letting go of what doesn’t serve us and creating a life that’s personally meaningful.
The Reverse Bucket List: Travis and I explore how reflecting on past accomplishments can build gratitude and serve as a reminder of what we’re capable of. It’s a powerful way to reconnect with what’s already meaningful.
Starting with Small Steps: A bucket list isn’t about tackling everything at once. Instead, Travis shares the value of starting small and building momentum, allowing each accomplishment to inspire the next.
Facing the Fear of Failure: Travis highlights the importance of writing down your bucket list to shift from limitations to possibilities. This simple act can activate our brain’s “reticular activating system,” filtering our focus toward meaningful goals.
Living with Purpose and Avoiding Comparison: Travis challenges us to live proactively rather than reactively. By focusing on our bucket lists, we create our own life plan and avoid the trap of comparing our journey to others.
