But, now is all I've got to work with, so what I want:
1. To get hired as a teacher
2. To lose weight
2. To lose weight
3. To publish a book
If I focus on those things though, then I'm not going to make as much progress cleaning out closets, weeding out possessions and eventually updating my will and catching up on scrapbooking which is what I would feel like I should be doing if I only had 18 months left. Because what good would it do to work as a teacher for a year at my ideal weight but leave a mess behind when I die.
And these are only my practical wants that I feel like I have some control over.
I'm not even putting on the short list the things like family peace and unity.
Or the impractical wants like going to the Olympics in Rio (as a spectator).
