I’m excited to introduce my next 101 in 1001 list!
A 101 in 1001 is a list of 101 things to accomplish in 1,001 days, or roughly 2.75 years. I started this project back in 2015, and I’ve created a new list each time my 1,001 days us up. My third list ended yesterday, so it’s time for 101 in 1001: #4!
I’ve included my entire list below, but I will be tracking it on my new 101 in 1001 webpage. That’s where you’ll be able to see what I’ve crossed off, what I’ve made progress on, and what items have been changed!
I can’t wait to starting crossing items off—wish me luck!
