It's like a bucket list- but it is full of big things & small things, new experience & old favorites, things that can happen spontaneously & things that are more planned out. If you have never heard about this list, I highly recommend you keep reading to learn more!
I have a bullet journal and create a variety of different pages. I even had a separate bullet journal for all things related to books & reading. One of my favorite things to put in my bullet journal is my bucket lists and this list falls into the category.
To start a 101 things list, all you need is somewhere to write/type it, 101 ideas of things you want to do within the next 3ish years (1,001 days). You can find so so many ideas of what to put on your list on Pinterest, or you can gain inspiration from mine! They key is choose some large, new experiences like travel to a new state and many smaller, easy to accomplish tasks like bake someone a birthday cake.
I like to add even more variety by choosing tasks that fall into different categories like: self-care, cooking & foods, reading, traveling, with my husband, seasonal, purchases to make, etc.
My list is about to end, on May 2nd, 2022 and I have quite a few tasks left to complete. If there are some that do not get completed, it is okay because one of my tasks is to save away $10 for every unchecked item. This will either force me to accomplish that task or pay up. I plan to put the money into our honeymoon travel fund, so either way it is a win-win for me.
Here are the things on my 101 Things in 1,001 Days List!

What should I add to my next list?
