101 Goals in 1,001 Days
I've always read goal-setting articles on the internet. I want so badly to be an organized goal-setter, but I always seem to procrastinate my goals into oblivion. Recently I was browsing the internet (probably avoiding doing something more important) and I found a blog article that contained a list of 101 goals that the writer wanted to complete in 1,001 days. After reading this list, I thought I'd try this out for myself. I got all the way to number 43 before hitting a snag.
I had simply run out of ideas. “What do I want to do?” I asked myself. After doing a Google search, a plethora of other 101 in 1,001 lists were on my screen. Some of the ideas I took verbatem, some I took as inspiration, but most of them I ignored completely because they weren't my goals. Not that they were bad – they just weren't mine.
Begin Novemeber 27, 2012. End August 25, 2012.
