Photo used under a Creative CommonsTed Leonsis likes to make lists. Of 101 things. He’s had this one for a while, his own personal bucket list. It includes goals like having a net worth of one hundred million dollars after taxes, owning a jet and inventing a board game — all of which he’s accomplished. (But he hasn’t been to Alaska yet. Take that, Mr. Overachiever!) Well, after purchasing the Wizards and the Verizon Center earlier this year, Leonsis made a similar list of things that fans suggested he should do to improve the experience of going to the arena and watching the Wizards play basketball.
Leonsis already finished the list (well, for the most part) — and completed some initiatives that people didn’t specifically request, but he just thought were worth doing — in just a few months. He’s even considering the more vigorous ideas on the list, like changing the name of the team back to Bullets.
So does caffeine run through Leonsis’ veins, or what? His dedication to GTD is enough to make you realize you haven’t really accomplished much of anything during your time on this Earth. (Though yours truly did get to witness a postseason no-hitter last night. That was pretty awesome, even if it was more a result of friendly circumstance than personal achievement.)
