“You’ve changed my attitude with your Superviva site! I love it! ” - Dawn
“I had breast cancer that was dignosed a few days before my 29th birthday. The good news is that I’m cancer free and about to turn 31.
In a strange way I’m very thankful for the experience because without it I would probably still be “on the hamster wheel” in a job that I hated, watching life passing me by. If I took anything away from my cancer experience (besides a intense fear of needles, lol!) it is to live in the moment and enjoy each day.
I love the concept of Superviva because before I got sick, there were so many things I assumed I would do “some day”. There was so much traveling that I thought maybe I would be able to do when I retired. Now I realize that instead of sitting around waiting for those things to happen “some day”, I can make them happen now! Thank you for turning your experience into an inspiration for others”

Agile Personal Development - A great story about a first-time SuperViva user’s experience in making a life list:
“Setting up my account was pretty easy, within 30 seconds I was ready to start adding goals! I started off with looking at the most popular goals to get some ideas. I ended up with about 25 of them right away….One of the interesting things when you go through this exercise is seeing all the goals that you don’t want to do. For me, this list included ‘learn how to throw shotput’, ‘get waxed’, and my personal favorite - ‘have mirrors on all my walls’. ”

“I had just watched ‘The Secret’ when my friend sent me a link to SuperViva. I found it to be a wonderful place on the internet. Initially, I had thought about not marking my goals done…but then I asked myself “is that the message ‘The Secret’ sent to me?” The answer was in recalling the author telling people to imagine themselves - REALLY imagining driving that new car. And, the best way to achieve your goals is to see yourself doing them and having done them.”
-TheMissMightyMomma
“Among many things, the most important goal on my list was to win a contest. I didn’t have a specific contest in mind, just something along the lines of fashion design (my dream career). I ended up putting this goal on my SuperViva LifeList….Never did I think this one goal would lead me to my very first real-life adventure!” See more
“Once again off to scratch off a goal on superviva. We’re heading down to union which is 2 hr away for a fair. one of the nurses said it was her favorite, so we shall see!”
“I just come across your site tonight and absolutely love it! This is one of the best sites I’ve come across in a LONG time.” - Jennelle
“Superviva.com is a website I visit nearly every day. I’m in college but I want to have a variety of careers over my lifetime….I want to live an exciting and charmed life. It has really helped me in so many ways and gets me really motivated to get my goals done. I love how everyone can share their ideas and how I can get ideas from other people.” -Jennifer aka holiday
“I’ve just spent a wonderful afternoon dreaming about the life I really want to lead, and then taking the first step towards action by making my SuperViva list!” -visioneer (a life coach)
“I’m just so excited to finally find something like this. I started a life list years ago when I was looking for direction, and I love the idea that so many more people will find out how much this can help them!” -Tara
Random Stuff
in the Knights of the Shag Carpet blog
“I went wild and crazy and bought a planner today. I also signed up for this site http://www.superviva.com. It offers a place to list your “life list” and sends weekly prompts. No doubt these prompts will be just something else to fill up my e-mail in box, like the Flylady newsletters I have been getting every day for the last year since I resolved to take better care of my house.”
(Very amusing
-Susie)
“I love it, and so far have passed it along to my best friend who then passed it along to her sister. I love lists, and am very excited to have another venue to use to explore my ideas and life plans.” -a member
Positive Thinking Blog - “Since I know the founder, I can totally recommend this site!”
Blogosphere and Press
1/19/07: Toledo Blade published List of a lifetime: Writing down your goals and dreams helps make them come true
1/14/07: USA Today mentioned SuperViva in an article about The Bucket List
Lisa Peake of Davidco.com wrote in Someday maybe…:
“The feature I liked most about it is that you can easily mark an item on your list “Active” or “Backburner”. The backburner seems to me another way of saying, I still like this thought enough to keep it, but I just don’t have the resources to commit to it right now. It can take some courage to move that fantastically cool idea OFF your “To-Do” list and over to your Someday/Maybe/Backburner list because then you have to trust that sometime in the future you will have more time, more energy, or more money; and that you will get to some of those cool ideas.”
Review in Ideahub Blog
“SuperViva is one of the most impressive self-improvement ideablogs I’ve seen so far and the one that recognizes that what the site/service is really about is managing your ideas to help you lead a better life.”
womenswallstreet.com newsletter
“We think late in the year (you know, pre-resolution time) is great time to put [a life list] together. Want to take your list cyber? Check out sites like 43Things.com and SuperViva.com.”
Webware
“Superviva is a site that helps you list and track your life’s goals, like, “Go to SXSW every year.”
Thoughts from Lockergnome
“With this service, you can envision what you want your life to be like and then add the goals that you have to a nicely organized list.”

“The plan is to have an aim so you don’t spend time running around in a circle.”
“Love the site. I wish you the very best helping people find their way. Your site represents one of the best ways that the Internet can help us share our gifts.” -Jennifer Louden
“Just feeling connected and loved—a sense of belonging—is certainly a purpose of social networks, but eventually you graduate from that into self-actualization, and that’s what SuperViva is all about. It’s clearly designed not to be just a place to dream, but to actually help people accomplish life goals.” -Scott Allen, editor of the About.com Entrepreneurs Guide and “The Virtual Handshake”
“I love it. I’m going to be spending some time there keeping track of my goals. At first glance, it felt 43-thingsish, but it’s for a somewhat different audience and most importantly–you don’t need to make things public. Even if you don’t think you’re in the “What Should I Do With My Life” category, it’s a great place to check out.” - Kathy Sierra of Wickedly Smart (post)
