101 Things
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).
I will donate $5 to charity for every item not completed.
Start Friday, May 30, 2009
End Friday, February 25, 2011- Countdown

You know there’s this site called 43things.com and another called 43places.com and 43people.com… they are pretty cool since there’s an instant support network around what you post as goals.
