Some­times I won­der about pieces of my life, whether I like them or not. I do mostly like my life, but I know there are things I would do dif­fer­ently if resources like time or money weren’t an issue. Today what I want you to con­sider is what your fan­tasy life.

NOT well, I’d get a mil­lion dol­lars and live on a yacht with Orlando Bloom (although there’s noth­ing wrong with that fan­tasy, that’s not the kind of thing we’re after.) Here’s what I’m talk­ing about: what kind of changes would you make in your life, the life you have now, to improve its quality.

Shen then listed 6 things; I liked the idea, so here are my six:

1. I’d get 7 solid hours of sleep every night. By solid, I mean none of that weak@$$ lying in bed wait­ing for sleep to come, but hon­est to God deep REM sleep.
2. I would carry a cam­era with me every­where I go and work at bring­ing my pho­tog­ra­phy skills back up to snuff.
3. I would be liv­ing in a nice, cozy house (with plenty of stor­age!) rather than my rather cramped apartment.
4. I’d change the dress­code at work so I could wear t-shirts again.
5. I’d take up Tai Chi or some form of mar­tial arts to get into bet­ter shape.
6. I’d spend an hour every­day in a sun­lit room work­ing on my draw­ing skills.

What’s on your six? Feel free to answer here or in your own blog.
