A couple of years ago I began this blog with my 101 in 1001. I have been obviously inconsistent on this platform, but my work towards my list actually ended this fall. I ended up achieving 48 of my goals, or 47.5%. Completing the list also teaches you alot. I learned that I hate knitting chunky projects, macarons are too damn finicky to be worth it, and I’m not great at keeping track of books I read.
Because my initial list was created in January, this year I decided to create a new list. Did I accomplish everything I set out to? No. But did I achieve a wide range of things I would not have intentionally worked towards? Yes. Intention here is the keyword. I have set my intention towards growing in a number of areas both personally and professionally, and my list helps me to stay on track and try new things.
I wanted to share my list because I’m so fascinated by the lists of others! Have you ever made a list like this before? Drop a comment below and tell me what you would put on your list!
