I found out about the 101 things in 1001 days challenge recently, and thought it was a really fun way to break down the whole goal setting and goal achieving process.
I’m not great at coming up with goals, but giving myself the target to create 101 of them means there’s plenty of space to get creative — and no real need to narrow things down. Plus, having a start date and end date pushes you forward to achieve them!
Today I wanted to share with you my 101 things in 1001 days list. It’s a list of my personal, career, and other goals that I plan to achieve in the next 1001 days (3 years). Some are big goals, some are tiny ones, and some are just for fun.
I hope this list gives you a little insight into me and what I’m striving for, and also inspires you to create your own list of 101 things to achieve in 1001 days.
