Creating your Own 1001 Day Project

Creating your own 1001 Day Project

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 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.

Some common goal setting tips:
1. Be decisive. Know exactly what you want, why you want it, and how you plan to achieve it.

2. Stay Focussed. Any goal requires sustained focus from beginning to end. Constantly evaluate your progress.

3. Welcome Failure. Frequently, very little is learned from a venture that did not experience failure in some form. Failure presents the opportunity to learn and makes the success more worthy.

4. Write down your goals. It clarifies your thinking and reinforces your commitment.

5. Keep your goals in sight. Review them frequently, and ensure that they are always at the forefront of your thinking.

Monday Monday…..

Sitting here on Monday at noon, listening to the new radio show on www.thepokerroad.com, and just browsing around the internet. I should have gotten off my lazy butt and taken the dog for a walk, but I have been sitting on the couch just as I have been doing for the last couple weeks and vegging. My youngest will be home from school in a little over an hour so I will go for a walk when the boss gets home from work.

The past two days I have been working on a new 101 in 1001 list, and I hope to have that up in the next day or two. I am forever making lists, setting goals, etc and I have started this project half heartedly before, but I am looking to give it another shot. I am a longtime personal development student, and although in many ways you would measure it I am not a thriving success, but believe me I am light years from where I once was. That is for sure. I will link to the list once I am done.

All for now, gonna go try and do something productive.
