**The Lifer Coach Show**

To start a Life List is to start tracking, and really paying attention.

A "Life List" is a list of birds that you have found in your lifetime. A new bird is a "Lifer" and adding one to your list is more exciting than you may think!

As this show's slogan says. "Life gets better when you pay attention birds."

Life gets better when you pay attention birds.

When you make time to notice birds, you start to notice your thoughts and feelings.

Noticing your life is the first step to making your life better.

Merlin is an amazing phone app that helps you identify bird sounds.

When you build a new Merlin habit, you can also use that time to notice yourself, and make changes that create a better life.

**The Lifer Coach Show** Life gets better when you pay attention birds.

Life gets better with birds, when you slow down and pay attention.

In this episode, David Bourne says noticing birds can be a simple way to notice the world more fully, whether outside in a park or forest, or through books, stories, memories, and conversations.

He explains the idea of a “lifer” as the first time you see a bird you have not seen before, and says it gets added to a life list.

He also says that even familiar birds can be treated as lifers if you choose to look at them that way, and that taking time each day to stop, listen, and watch can reveal things that were not being noticed before.
