101 Things

Sep 02, 2006 10:12

I learned about this from times_suspended, and joined up over at mission101.

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 my part).

Why ( Read more... )

health, sca, goals, family, spirit, reiki, writing, doula, 101

Hmm..... That FLY idea looks neat... I'm going to look into that!

It's helped me a lot! (When I stick with it). I'm doing a good job with it this time around - I anticipate sticking with it. :)

Good luck!

You might take parts of this list over to 43things... I have a list up there and you can see people who have done it, ask people questions, motivate others/be motivated by others with similar goals. A link to my 43things list is on my userinfo.

Thanks, I may check that out when I have more time. I think I saw your 43 things list before.

Another SCA member! Good luck with your list!

ahavah September 2 2006, 16:19:43 UTC

Thank you!

I'm not an SCA member yet, though. I've only recently learned about it and am trying to get involved.

SCA is something I've wanted to get into for a long time also! I want to dance in the SCA! *dances away cheerfully*

I haven't had the opportunity to do anything but read about it so far, but it looks like a lot of fun! I'm excited about it.

You can do this hon! H'mmm maybe that drum circle could be in Ontario..LOL..

ahavah September 3 2006, 00:17:21 UTC

Thank you so much! I'll definitely need the support. I have all these things I want to do, but I often flake out...no more! :)

I would *love* to have a drum circle up there with you. I've done a few before and it's always such an amazing experience for me. I hope to get my own drum. I've been wanting to do another one for a while, and just haven't gotten off my tookus to find one.

Oh, and I've already told Josh that once we win the lottery (I'm so manifesting - with the help of your candles - lol), we're hopping a jet to go up to Canada to see you and maybe hop over to Alaska to see simplydorei while we're at it. :)

And if you get that Reiki Retreat up and running, you could count on my resume in your inbox. :P

Best wishes and good thoughts for your accomplishment...cause that's what it'll be!

There's so much to love on this list, but i have to comment specifically on the Meals On Wheels part...i did a lot of my undergrad research on senior citizens quality of life issues, and a dedicated project for MOW. The people that benefit from that program are so incredibly thankful for the service and for the personal interaction that comes with it. You'd be surprised how many seniors are, for all intensive purposes, shut-ins. It will really brighten their day to have you around!

Thank you! What great incentive to stick with it.

I've *always* wanted to do Meals on Wheels, but I've been waiting for the stable 'wheels', if you know what I mean. I think it's a great program, and it's always important to give back to the Elders! I'm going to find out if it's something I could do with the girls, too.

Good to know there are still those who think so! Sometimes the way that the mobile, youth driven American society treats 'old folks' really bums me out.
