This is a short-term bucket list, 101 things I want to accomplish in 1001 days, or about 2 3/4 years. I'm really excited about it, because it will help keep me motivated to get things done, but isn't so daunting as a lifelong bucket list. I'll continually update this post as I complete things:) And I'll try to make a new one when this one finishes!
Creating the list is actually a lot harder than it looks! I currently have only 100... I finished about 90 of them in three days, but that last handful is the hardest because I keep deleting and adding new stuff.
I learned about this from my bestie, who discovered it from Mackenzie Horan, and was originally created by the Day Zero Project.
"Always remember the purpose for setting goals is to be transformed by them in the process. What they make of you is always far greater than what you actually achieve!"
