So here's the deal... 101 goals accomplished in 1001 days. (See Day Zero) Big, small, huge, difficult, simple, all measurable and achievable and designed to help you grow. Dream big, do big. It's daunting just to create the list. And publishing it here is giving me butterflies in my stomach.
But here's the thing, when was the last time we focused on the big stuff and a long term plan? When we're in school we just want to finish. As adults we may have goals about our retirement savings or our careers. But when was the last time you sat down and looked at what you really love to do? What you really want to do? Who you really want to be?
I have had the most wonderful time creating my list! Jodie thinks there's no way I'll actually get to take the sabbatical that's on the list (#21) because there's so much on the list that I'm going to be really busy. But really, some of the items are very small (#60) and some are admittedly huge (#17) and some have been goals for a long time (#8). Some of the items I hope will make me a better person (#98) and some I hope will make the world a better place in the very little ways that become huge when added together (#33). And one item on the list celebrates the idea that there may be such a thing as true altruism (#88).
The things I love are on there... chocolate (#50), wine (#54), travel (#16), family (#84). And the things I want to love (#30). And things I've wanted to do for a long time (#85). It's about more than just business (#91). It's about life (#70) and love (#68) and the reasons we do what we do every day (#100).
Make a list! Celebrate your list! Make lists with the people you love. Grow. And I'll keep you posted on mine...
