    1. Oh absolutely! So I have always liked the idea of having a bucket list -- you know that lofty list full of way-out-there and borderline never-gonna-happen things to complete over a lifetime....but I also like having a list of smaller more easily completed goals that I could do sooner rather than later. The difference between a bucket list and a 101 in 1001 list is that it breaks down the timeline you have to get the things done (therefore making it potentially more likely that you will in fact complete the stuff). It also made me actually include things that I could realistically complete in the short term rather than long term goals. Like sure I want to go to Thailand but in the next 1001 days I doubt I could actually financially do it. However, trying my hand at painting pottery is totally doable within 1001 days. A lot of the items on my 101 in 1001 list are also on my bucket list but instead of just looking at them and thinking "oh I'll get to it", the 101 in 1001 days makes me more accountable to actually complete them....if that makes any sense!
