101 things in 1000 days – my personal bucket list part II

In April I ran out of days for my first ever 101 things in 1000 days list. And I always knew I was going to give it another try. I enjoyed looking at all the things I wanted to do, to achieve and to experience at some time in my life. Some things I wasn’t too eager to actually do. Some things were just off the table due to a pandemic. And I found it really interesting what items actually were crossed off.

101 things in 100 days project zero

Just a quick recap if you have never heard of a 101 things in 1000 days which is also called Project Zero.

The Challenge: Complete 101 preset tasks in a period of 1000 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 your part). 
Why 1,000 Days? Many people have created lists in the past – frequently simple challenges such as New Year’s resolutions or a ‘Bucket List’. The key to beating procrastination is to set a deadline that is realistic. 1,000 days (about 2.75 years) is a better period of time than a year, because it allows you several seasons to complete the tasks, which is better for organizing and timing some tasks such as overseas trips, unforeseen hiccups, or outdoor activities.

Found some magic on a rainy, cold, windy, sick day.
Road tripping through Germany 🇩🇪
2023 starts with a four day trade fair in Munich that was supposed to be a 2-day gig. Very busy and so my content production skills moved aside and I took the role of sales person, coffee girl, trend scout and squeezed in a bit photography.
New habit loading: Wednesday Morning Walk.
Bye bye 2022.
