101 in 1001

So I stumbled upon this really cool idea of making a list of 101 goals to complete in 1001 in days. I saw a list on a blog quite a while ago and thought it was a pretty cool idea but did nothing about it. A few weeks ago I was in the shower and randomly thought about that list again. After my shower I did some online research and found a TON more blogs with their own lists. Since I am a born list maker I decided to go for it and make my own list and I also encouraged my sister to make a list as well. It was kind of difficult coming up with 101 things at first but once a got more than half way through making my list I found myself wishing I had more than 101 spaces.

This idea was originally created by a website called Day Zero Project. 1001 days is about 2.75 years. The point is to come up with specific things you want to accomplish. They must be realistic but also challenging. Sometimes you have goals (like traveling) that take longer than a year to accomplish which is why 1001 days is much better than 365.

I love this idea so much. I am going to blog my progress and keep up with my list here. I will post on Instagram too. I know there is already a hashtag created so if you want to make your own list or check out other list and progress you can check out the hashtag #101in1001 on IG and twitter.

When I was researching this project I found a ton of other blogs to read too. Like this one. Another plus of doing this project.
