1001 Days

Something interesting I saw on one of my favorites OD's, and figured - hey! Why not? I think it might be hard to come up with 101, but, I'll make a college try.


The Mission:
Complete 101 preset tasks in a period of 1001 days. Assuming that I start my tasks on October 10, 2005 - I should have all of them complete by July 7, 2008.


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 1001 Days?
Many people have created lists in the past - frequently simple goals such as new year's resolutions. The key to beating procrastination is to set a deadline that is realistic. 1001 Days (about 2.75 years) is a better period of time than a year, because it allows you several seasons to complete the tasks, which is better for organising and timing some tasks such as overseas trips or outdoor activities.
