Ever wonder, what you want to do before you die. Me neither, until a show on MTV became a huge part of my life and made me realize how much time we have on our hands and how that time could be occupied by doing things you would have never thought of doing before. The Buried Life is a TV show on MTV that started with four guys from Canada who decided they wanted to accomplish 100 things on their list before they died, the catch was for every things crossed off their list, they would help someone on the road achieve something on their list. They kept a video blog which they then sold to MTV and that's how I was exposed to the best show. You are probably wondering at this point, how is this priming. Isn't it obvious? By showing a show like that, MTV is priming us, (the teenagers), to start looking at our life in a different light. We become more involved and we start thinking in terms of what exactly do I want to achieve before I die, how can I not waste my precious time I have left and why am I not helping other people around me do the same. After watching the show for the first time, I told all my friends and we all started our bucket lists and now, a year later, we are all patiently awaiting the second season of the show and we have crossed out plenty on our own lists. This is a prime example of priming.
So please, go on your computers and begin your list of things to do before you die and don't forget to help out other along the way.
Peace, Love, What do you want to do before you die?
