With any age milestone we approach comes a fresh set of bucket-list resolutions. Things we want to do. Places we want to go. Goals we want to achieve. It’s just a natural progression we go through. There are things, however, that seem to be placed on many lists. Things like:

Bucket list goals to achieve by age milestones
Travel
A lot of people have aspirations to travel to new places. It tends to be places they have never seen or been to before. I think what appeals to most about travelling is the experience they will have and the memories you can make.
When you travel, you can enjoy a wealth of experiences, from new and exciting food to trying new things like watersports.
Live Abroad
Some people may want to take the travelling to a whole new level and live in another country. This could be while your children are young enough to experience a new educational environment, or just for yourselves. Living abroad can be both exciting and nerve-wracking. Unless you know someone where you are planning to live you are on your own. Starting again. That could mean a new job, new friends, and a new lifestyle.
Self Improvements
Some people want to make improvements to themselves. This could be down to their looks, enhancement, or repair. Things like cosmetic surgery, facelifts, hair transplants, or laser eye surgery tend to be the most popular. Most people are more likely to want to repair things like their eyes to offer a better quality of life.
But you need to make sure that any change like this is well-researched. Are there any implications healthwise? There is normally a lot of questions that need answering before pursuing any repair or improvement surgery.
Improve their home life
Some people add simple things to their list. Like improving their family budget more. This could be done by changing where they shop, using coupons, or money-saving vouchers. Perhaps they might want to start paying off some debt they have built up. Homelife could be down to trying to find a better work/home life balance. You might want to spend more quality time with your family rather than working longer hours. Using the time for family days out and making memories. It’s always a tough one to try and get right but yet one of the goals most people want to achieve.
Career progression
Finally, one of the most popular goals or things to add to a bucket list before an age milestone is your career. Whether you want to take the next step up on the career ladder. Or find a better job, this is one of the goals you will see on the majority of lists.
Career progression could mean working towards the next step, promotion, or gaining more responsibility. You might hope for a pay rise. Career progression might mean just finding a job with another employer. A company that offers more benefits or has less of a daily commute.
Whatever you decide to put on your list before that special age milestone remember not to put too much pressure on yourself. These things are all about self-improvement and having more experiences. Make the memories, don’t make the stress.
