101 Things in 1001 Days – The Lowdown

Do you have a bucket list? I’ve never had one.

Do you have a running to-do list in your head of things that aren’t immediately necessary but you’ve been meaning to do them? My list is a mile long.

If you’ve made either of these lists, or juggled both of these lists, then 101 Things in 1001 Days is absolutely for you!

I came across this idea on The Lazy Genius’s blog, loved it, and I started my own. The idea is that you create a list of 101 things that you’d like to do, and give yourself 1001 days to complete the entire list. My list officially started on January 1, 2016 and the timer runs out on September 28, 2018. It seems like a long time, but I have a feeling it will pass pretty quickly! I’m only up to about 50 or so items, and the first thing on my list is to finish the list, but I’m really looking forward to marking things off! As I complete each item, I’ll mark it off the list and post the details about it!

(I discovered that this idea started from the Day Zero Project, so jump over there and read up on the specifics.)

So what kinds of things go on the list? Well, anything from, “Eat one box of girl scout cookies in two or more sittings” (but who’d want to do that anyway?) to, “Ride a donkey to the bottom of the Grand Canyon” (who’d want to do that either?). The whole point is that they are personally meaningful and specific enough to measure. Don’t just say, “Get into better shape.” Say, “Work out three times a week for six weeks,” or something.

So on with it. Hope on over to my page here, or click 101 Things up there at the top.

Have you done this challenge before? What kinds of things were on your list? Please share! I need more inspiration!
