    26 Things

    It’s a good thing I decided to redo the 101 in 1001 else I wouldn’t have discovered there’s a 26 Things project happening this month. It’s a basic premise – given a list of 26 words/phrases take a photo that illustrates that word. The list is: neighbour unfamiliar mess information change everything company twin warning [...]

    101 in 1001 Reprisal

    As mentioned earlier, I’m redoing 101 in 1001 starting today. This time round I’ve made the tasks less rigid so in the event of total craziness they’re still accomplishable and I’ve also added in the dreaded “fill this in later” tasks as I now understand how useful they can be. Imagine waiting almost 3 years [...]

    Welcome 2009!

    Hi everyone I’ve been avoiding posting anything recently as I wanted to make today special since it’s the first day of the calendar year and a wonderful time to start afresh. Over the past few weeks I’ve been slowly mapping out my goals for 2009 and I decided to restart my 101 in 1001 as [...]

    Dawning of a New Month

    Hi there, November brings in the beginning of the 10th NaNoWriMo (National Novel Writing Month) which is an event celebrated by the feverish pounding of keys around the world. From a naming perspective, the opposite of the World Series I guess. Don’t worry though, whilst doing NaNoWriMo is on my 101in1001 list, I haven’t given [...]

    101 in 1001 – February 2008 Update

    Well I think we can successfully say that I’m not doing great at this but on the other hand with over 900 days to go I’m not doing as badly as I thought. I come across as being really negative in assessing the tasks below but I’m not that cut up about it – just [...]

    One down – only One Hundred to go

    Yesterday I mentioned Brad Issac at Achieve-IT! is running a month-long series on Goal Setting and today we’re on Day Two: Start with a Big List. I found this a bit daunting starting with an empty page and personally could have done with a few starter questions but after a few minutes I wrote down [...]

    Welcome 2008!

    Well, how about that – another year has slipped from our grasp and whilst I won’t make any comments on the year that has past, I have a feeling that 2008 will be a really wonderful year. Earlier in the year I noted somewhere that there are many points in the year when you can [...]

    101 in 1001

    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). Started: 01 Jan 2008 Finish: [...]
