Would you share your goals and desires with the Internet? If you would perhaps you may be interested in the website 43Things."Yes, but what use is all of this?" you may ask.
Well if you think about one of my pet themes, the one about how you should give people what they want (and not what you think they should or might want ... etc) then seeing what are popular goals and desires might just be useful.
For example the most Popular Goals on 43Things are:
1. Lose weight (32978 people)
2. stop procrastinating (24573 people)
3. write a book (22771 people)
4. Fall in love (22445 people)
5. Be happy (19819 people)
6. Get a tattoo (18184 people)
7. Go on a road trip with no predetermined destination (16992 people)
8. Drink more water (16949 people)
9. Get married (16474 people)
10.Travel the world (16414 people)
... and the most Popular Goals today are:
1. Drink more water
2. Fall in love
3. Lose weight
4. Write a book
5. Run a marathon
6. Learn Spanish
7. Be happy
8. Be more confident
9. Travel the world
10.Get a job
43Things could be useful for generating ideas about which type of products to promote, or maybe a niche for a blog, or an idea for an ebook. Though I'm not too sure about this obsession with drinking water!
Well I thought it was interesting anyway. And it's all done anonymously.
But why 43 Things? This is what they say:
People have known for years that making a list of goals is the best way to achieve them. But most of us never get around to making a list. 43 Things is great for that! Make a list on 43 Things and see what changes happen in your life. Best of all it’s a way of connecting with other enthusiasts interested in everything from watching a space shuttle launch to grow my own vegetables. So the next time someone asks you, "what do you do?" you can answer with confidence, "I am doing 43 things!".Made your goals for next year? Are you going to drink more water for example!
Good luck.
