101 in 1001

Most people know about this, but just in case you don’t I will try to explain! Basically you make a list of 101 goals that you want to accomplish and you have 1,001 days to get them completed! I like the motivation and being able to check things off of a list! :)

I made my first list a little over a year ago so I still had some time to work on it. But the more I looked at my list, the more I wanted to start over. There were things on my list that I didn’t want to do anymore or things I wouldn’t have the opportunity to do again, etc. And another big reason I wanted to start over was because I want to have a blog post for every item I check off. With my first list, I tried to blog about each item but some things just slipped through the cracks.

SO, I trashed my old list and made a new one! Some things were on my old list and some things are new. But this time, I will NOT check something off the list without providing proof that it was completed! :)

You can find my 101 in 1001 list on the right side of my page under the archives.

Without further adieu, here is my new list!
