How to Create Your Own 101 in 1001 List

November 21, 2020

It’s no secret that I’m a big fan of 101 in 1001 lists. I’ve just started my third list, and it brings me so much joy.

101 in 1001 is a list of 101 things you want to accomplish in the next 1,001 days, or roughly 2.75 years. It’s longer than a new year’s resolution and shorter than a bucket list.

I started my first one back in 2015, and I’ve been creating a new list every time the previous one ends.

Over the years, I’ve gotten a few questions about how to make your own 101 in 1001 list. After all, 101 is a lot! And 1,001 days is quite a time commitment!

Don’t worry, friend. I’ve got you.

Plan With Me: How I’m Using the Passion Planner and Passion Planner Daily Together

When Passion Planner announced the Passion Planner Daily this fall, I wasn’t super into it. I wanted to be into it, because it’s a Passion Planner product, but I didn’t see how it would fit into my life. I had already bought a 2020 Passion Planner, so I’d need to use them together, and I already have a to do list going in the Notes app on my phone. Did I really need a second planner?

But then I printed out the sample pages to test them out… and fell in love with them. A few days later, I ended up ordering my set of four Passion Planner Dailies (I went with Tranquil Tones!) on Kickstarter and began testing out how I would use them in conjunction with my regular Passion Planner.

I have the feeling this will evolve over the next year, but I wanted to share my current set up in case it inspires anyone else currently struggling to balance the two!

We’re almost halfway through the year, so I thought it would be fun to do a mid-year review of my 2019 Passion Planner!

I did an original post back in January that goes through how I had it set up. I’ve been using it for 5.5 months now, and for the most part everything is the same. But I’ve definitely learned some lessons along the way!

AB Testing: What is It, and Why Should You Be Doing It?

March 28, 2019

As a blogger, you’re getting first-hand experience in digital marketing. Whether you want to pursue it as a career or not, it’s a marketable skill that can help you in the future, especially as our world leans more and more on the digital realm.

(See, for example, me sending my husband a post on Instagram just now, instead of walking across the room to show him the photo on my phone.)

One really valuable tool at digital marketers’ disposal is AB testing. And it’s something you can practice as a blogger!

As much as I love digital tools for keeping myself organized, I’m a sucker for paper planners. And for the fourth year in a row, I’m using the Passion Planner!

I first started using it in 2016 when my friend Angela recommended I try it out. I had been using a cheap planner from Staples up until then, and I’ve been a loyal member of the #pashfam ever since!

How to Balance a Job, a Blog, and Your Family

September 25, 2018

I’m a big supporter of having a blog as a side hustle and keeping it on the side rather than trying to turn it into a full-time gig. But when you work full-time, blog on the side, and have a family and social life, it can be really hard to balance everything.

Over the past few years as my life has evolved and my responsibilities have changed, I’ve learned some things about balancing a job, a blog, and a family. It’s not an easy task, but when you keep a few main things in mind, it gets much easier.
