I really enjoyed my last 101 in 1001 list (101 goals to be completed in 1001 days), so I have come up with the new & improved version to keep myself focused & accountable! I have roughly 2.75 years to complete these tasks & have broken them down into categories. They are in no particular order. I am SUPER excited to cross some of these off!! Check back periodically for updates! I’m going to try to blog these accomplishments as I do them. You can find the master list at the top of my blog under the tab 101 in 1001.
