101 Goals in 1001 Days


I tried this a while back when I lived in Japan, but I got so stressed out by living in Japan and coming back to the United States at the end of my time there, that I just let it go by the way side. That being said, I thought that by trying again, I would be able to get some productivity out of myself. I have a lot of debt right now, so none of these will be travel related. 

The point of this is to get 101 things/goals done in 1001 days. To complete these, you should have to stretch yourself a little bit. They should be things you need to stretch for a little bit to get them done. For instance, I have been trying to pay down my debt for two years now, so obviously it is a little bit of a stretch for me to pay it off in just over 3 years.
