The page lists 36 goals, and the man it was pinned on says it isn't his. Kanye West wrote 'This list is not real' on X on December 29, 2025, after the handwritten note spread online. Plenty of people liked it anyway: Rolling Out says supporters called the goals relatable and refreshingly normal. Number 36, learning to pole dance, sparked its own round of reactions. This list picks 25 of the 36 goals as reported, not the full page, so treat it as a fun template, not a window into anyone's real plans. Album news is out of scope.
Why these items are on the list
- Climb Mount Kilimanjaro. One of the bold goals on the handwritten page.
- Visit Machu Picchu. Netflix Junkie writes it as climbing Machu Picchu; Geo News calls it a trip.
- Travel through South America. Its own goal, separate from Machu Picchu and the Amazon.
- Swim with great white sharks. Geo News specifically names great whites; other reports just say sharks.
- Go skydiving. Netflix Junkie lists it right next to swimming with sharks.
- Try bungee jumping. Netflix Junkie's rundown has it right after skydiving.
- Learn to surf. Geo News says surfing was already ticked off on the page.

Tick it on your phone, and it's better with a friend arguing over which goals are actually reasonable. Add your own at the bottom.
