I am excited to share my 101 in 1001 days adventure! I’ve joined the Day Zero Project to start an adventure of growth, learning, and becoming a better version of myself. If you haven’t heard of this project, it simply means (as the name suggests) creating a list of 101 goals to complete in 1001 days. You can find out more about the Day Zero Project HERE. There are three basic rules to creating a “101 List”:
- Tasks must be specific with a result that is clearly measurable or clearly defined.
- Tasks must be realistic and stretching (I may have added one goal {#47} that could be a really BIG “stretch” – but it would be a dream… you never know!)
- Tasks must be completed within 1,001 days, equivalent to about 2.75 years (33ish months).
You can list all 101 items in one list or break them into categories as I have below. There are no “rules” on what must be on your list or how you organize it. I’m going to keep track along the way of which goals & how many have been accomplished. I hope you follow along with my adventure and that it inspires you to create your own 101 in 1001 adventure list!
