101 Goals in 1001 Days

Starting today, I am going to work on accomplishing 101 goals over the next two and a half years, 1001 days to be exact. Copied from http://sarahzipperer.blogspot.com/p/101-in-1001.html

Start Date: March 8, 2011
End Date: December 3, 2013

The Mission: Complete 101 preset tasks in a period of 1001 days.
The Criteria: Tasks must be specific (ie. no ambiguity in the wording) with a result that is either measurable or clearly defined. Tasks must also be realistic and stretching (ie. represent some amount of work on my part).
Why 1001 Days? Many people have created lists in the past — frequently simple goals such as new year’s resolutions. The key to beating procrastination is to set a deadline that is realistic. 1001 Days (about 2.75 years) is a better period of time than a year, because it allows you several seasons to complete the tasks, which is better for organizing and timing some tasks such as overseas trips or outdoor activities.
