LUCKY #13

#13. Read the Bible everyday for a complete week, and write a summary over what I read each day.

What better way to start a new chapter in my life? When in doubt, turn to God, well at least that's what the "old folks" say. Right now I can only go off my faith, and trust that everything will work out in the end. After spending the last few days with my pops, and soaking up some wisdom I believe that the best thing I own to date is my faith. I put all my trust in the Lord, and live each day with my faith guiding me.

"Commit to the LORD whatever you do, and your plans will succeed."
Proverbs 16:3

101 THINGS IN 1001 DAYS ...

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).

Why 1001 Days?

Many people have created lists in the past - frequently simple goals such as New Year's resolutions. The key to beating procrastination is to set a deadline that is realistic. 1001 Days (about 2.75 years) is a better period of time than a year because it allows you several seasons to complete the tasks. This is better for organizing and timing some tasks such as overseas trips or outdoor activities.
