Through my online boards I came across this group of people who were doing 101 things in 1001 days. Bascially, you're supposed to make up a list of 101 things that you would like to do in the next 1001 days. The only rules are that you have to be specific with your goals and they have to be achievable in the next 1001 days. Since I love setting new goals (and making "to do" lists) I thought this sounded awesome! My 1001 days start tomorrow, May 15th. Check out my list on the side to see what I will be working on in the next 1001 days.
