Purpose isn't a feeling. It's your highest performance tool
As a self-appointed 'Bucket Listologist', Travis Bell has obsessively studied the Bucket List phenomenon and blended the world's best positive psychology principals to create his own unique Bucket List Life Philosophy. He has designed his life around his bucket list, and now he helps Bucket Listers all over the globe create and cross off theirs.
A Bucket List is a tangible reason ?Why': a life plan that has the power to transform every area of your life. It will help to decrease life's distractions and increase your focus on what truly makes you happy. But this is far more than just writing a simple list; this is about the journey you'll experience in the process of achieving your list and about the person you become in the process.
Trav says he has a special super-power! His super-power is to stop people just existing, stop 'ground-hog' days, and stop waiting for 'someday' or 'the perfect timing' to come around. He wakes people up, gets them off life's treadmill and helps them to start living life on purpose.
Before Trav became The Bucket List Guy, he built a chain of personal training studios across Australia. Starting with one client, he and his team went on to do over a million personal training sessions and motivated tens of thousands of clients. This is why Trav is now regarded as one of Australia's foremost personal development speakers and life coaches.
Described as 'infectiously motivating', Trav always brings fresh stories to each seminar and event he does because he's out there practising what he preaches. His 'crazy' Bucket List adventures are hilarious and truly inspirational.
Trav will show how to prevent regret and start living your list before it's too late!

I think the team got a lot out of it. I know a few of my team have been buzzing me that have been watching it online across the globe. Trav thanks for coming along on the stage, loved your energy. Trav set a really positive tone for our day and hope to have you back here again.
Trav’s presentation was at the top of the list of any I’ve seen. The response and feedback we’ve had from everybody here has been just unbelievable!
