Since I kinda dropped the ball/took a break on my last 101 in 1001, I gave myself an extra year to get shit done! (hah..) Here are the past few 101 in 1001’s I’ve done!
101 in 1001 (2024-2026)
Why 1001?
Many people have created lists in the past – frequently simple goals such as New Year’s resolutions. The key to beating procrastination is to set a deadline that is realistic. 1001 Days (~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 (e.g. travel). To start your own, calculate the finish date here!
Start:Ā January 1, 2024
Finish: September 28, 2026
