Mission 101
Found this awesome community mission101 and I decided to do it in place of "New Year's Resolutions" that I'll never remember or complete anyway.
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 your part).
Cross them off as you do them, and add the dates. Include the date you started the list and the finishing date.
These goals are subject to change based on my own discretion - they're my goals, so my rules! Also the date I chose to start is 1/1/11, but I change it to earlier if I complete a goal before then.
From date: Saturday, January 1, 2011
Resulting date: Saturday, September 28, 2013
