Whatever graduates are planning to do -- whether it’s entering
college, attending graduate school, going to work, or some other
path -- there are a number of experiences that they should consider
tackling as part of their personal growth and evolution into
adulthood. A great gift for members of the Class of 2019 and
beyond, The Graduate’s Bucket List serves as a practical starting
point to help students take steps to build a life of personal
accomplishment, and navigate through life’s various challenges.
“The exercises in this book are meant to inspire ideas about the
experiences that make life fulfilling. Many of these items are
things you may have thought about but never tried. Each chapter
includes the impact each item can have on your life, practical tips
for getting started, and some things to consider as you incorporate
it into your own bucket list,” says Taylor.
Among the exercises Taylor suggests for recent graduates:
- Learn to Solve a Rubik’s Cube:
This is more than just a conversation starter or an interesting
party trick. In this chapter, you’ll learn some surprising benefits
that come from learning to solve one of the world’s most famous
puzzles.
- Get Published: Seeing your work
in print is a powerful feeling. In this chapter, you’ll learn why
writing can add to your sense of fulfillment and how to get started
in today’s digital publishing environment.
- Complete a One-Year Pyramid
Save: Saving money is important, but it’s not always fun. In
this chapter, you’ll learn five simple ways to break up the
monotony of building your savings and challenge yourself with this
long-term goal.
“This list was compiled from my own experiences and those of
friends, family, and mentors. While some of these items may speak
to you more than others, I encourage you to review them all and
spend some time considering how they might impact your life. If
you’ve already accomplished some of these items, use the
inspiration in this book to develop your own ideas,” added
Taylor.
The book is priced at $14.99 and available for purchase on
Amazon. An e-version will soon be available for $7.99.
