101 in 1001

All my life I have been a list maker. It helps me organize what I want to do, how I want to do it and keep track of my accomplishments. When I stumbled upon 101 in 1001 a few years ago it really struck a cord with me. I have made two lists before but they always went out the window due to unfortunate circumstances (read more here). I decided to try again and make this one stick. All of these 101 goals are things I want to do for me. Not for my career or for someone else. I really recommend trying this out yourself. Even if you trash the list half way through or never complete a single thing, it will get you thinking positive about your future and what you want in your life.

The list officially started on September 15th, 2011 and will end on May 21st, 2014.
