Hello and welcome back to practicing human the podcast where every day we're getting a little better at life I'm your host

Corey Muscarra and in today's episode we're going to talk about the opposite of a bucket list.

More to come on that in a moment.

First, let's settle in together with the sound of the bells. So many of us are familiar with a bucket list.

This is typically a list we creative things we would like to do before we transition out of this world.

But fewer of us are familiar with the opposite of the bucket list, which I'm not going to say because I've tried to keep this a curse-free podcast,

but we could say that it's similar to freak and rhymes with buck.

We'll call it the freak it list and this in contrast to the bucket list, is all of the things that you commit not to do,

the things that drain your energy, your time, your focus that just aren't contributing to the life you want to live.

And I think there are two ways that you can use the freaket list.

One could be just the big things in your life

that you choose not to spend time on.

In the same way that you have a bucket list of everything that you want to do.

The Frecket list could be everything that you don't want to do and you're committing on a meta level not to put energy in that direction. I think you could

also use the freaket list on a more micro level and this I mean on more of a day-to-day basis so you have your

tasks at hand for the day the things that you want to get done that you want to work

on the qualities you want to get done that you want to work on the qualities you want to cultivate

within yourself and then of course they're going to be those things that are

antithetical to the person you're trying to become and also are not serving the things that you want to get

done and the person you want to become.

And so those things we put on the freak it list.

And again, this is just the commitment to not do the things that aren't deserving of your time, your life energy. You know, that's all, especially time, it's a non-renewable resource, and so needs to be allocated
