For the next 1001 days I’m going to be keeping a list of 101 goals to accomplish. I’m pretty bad at just keeping a New Year’s Resolution but I think I have a better chance at completing this! After reading Design Darling’s posts, I have been inspired to do my own. With a deadline of about 2.75 years, there’s no more excuses for not getting out there and conquering this list! For every task completed I’m going to put $10 into savings (hey nice way to get a $1000 from this!). I figured out the date here btw.
Start Date: March 7th, 2015
End Date: December 2nd, 2017
