The
Challenge:
Complete
101 preset tasks in a period of 1001 days.
The
Criteria:
Tasks
must be specific (i.e., no ambiguity in the wording) with a result that is
either measurable or clearly defined. Tasks must also be realistic and
stretching (i.e., represent some amount of work on your part).
Why
1001 Days?
Many
people have created lists in the past - frequently simple challenges such as
New Year's resolutions or a 'Bucket List'. The key to beating procrastination
is to set a deadline that is realistic. 1001 Days (about 2.75 years) is a
better period of time than a year, because it allows you several seasons to
complete the tasks, which is better for organizing and timing some tasks such
as overseas trips, study semesters, or outdoor activities. source: about day zero project

I
saw one blogger who split her goals up into categories. I’m stealing that idea.
Coming
up with 101 things to do is hard! I’m not really into traveling and I do most
things I want to do… not to sound bitchy. I’m an impulsive shopper; hence the
financial category of this list.
I will add things to the list as I think of them. [Note to self: I'm scheduling this to post on 2/15/2016 and there are 71 things on the list.]
