funny how life changes. 2 years ago this day, i was landing in the netherlands. 1 year ago, precisely, i was stepping out of a plane in denver, usa.
today i’m not landing anywhere, i’m already settled in shanghai, china. but i know there is more, much more to come.
taking part of the 101 things in 1001 days project made me realize that while making my list, i was outlining a future version of me, along with a certain path to get there.
these are the things that define me better, the objectives, the challenges and the dreams. actually writing them down, giving them a deadline and making them public made me more focused in making them happen (and i’m not one to be easily taken away by gtd speeches and methods).
some of the tasks are easy and have been long postponed, some are dreamy, some are eventually going to happen, some require a lot of planning and/or money. oh! and 2 of them have already been taken care of, only 99 left (to be done in 991 days) :)
what about you… do you have a list too?

Yes I do! :D I had never heard of that 101 things to do in 1001 days project but I’m making my own list of 100 things to do (in a timeframe that I still have to decide…). I’ve always used lists to organised myself, from big things to less important ones. Right now, i have my notebook open next to the laptop with the list of the things i still have to do today. It’s the only way i can make sure i don’t forget any of them.
I started this 100 things to do list to kind of compromise with myself and make sure i will do in my life all the things i really want to do. I also intend to post it, once it’s finished because, like you, it’ll give me a bigger sense of responsability and actually make me do it (or so i hope!).
