101 Things in 1001 Days
So here it is - my list. 101 things for me to achieve in 1001 days. 143 weeks. 32.8 months. 2.74 years. Can I do it? Maybe. Probably. Well I'll give it a good go, I tell you that much. This is just something I need to do for me. Some things may be revised, depending on circumstance and how life has an uncanny knack of changing spontaneously. But for the most part, a lot of these 'goals' are things that I have wanted to do and spent the last 1001 days procrastinating about. I'll be pleased if I get 50% done. I'll be satisfied and pretty well chuffed if I get 75% done. I'll be damn excited if I get them all done. If there is anything on my list that you think you can help me with, just let me know! Some things, aren't just about doing things for me, but for others. So take a look. I'd love your thoughts. Most of all, I'd love the support!
