I was so inspired by Mackenzie from the amazing blog Design Darling to create this list. She’s done this twice and it was so incredible to see how much she accomplished in 1001 days (2.75 years). The concept of this list is to write down 101 things you want to accomplish in any capacity over the next 1001 days. Mackenzie says that this list is sort of like a bucket list and to-do list combined. There are things on mine that are a real stretch for the time frame, not to mention waaaaayyy out of my comfort zone but there are also also lots of little gems that have been nagging me on post-it lists for weeks. I put a lot of thought into this and will keep you updated as I progress by crossing out the goals like this and adding the date of when the goal was accomplished. My finish date is January 26, 2018. If you make you’re own, please send me the link and I will happily post it on my page- I love to see other peoples goals and dreams! Here it goes:
