101 things in 1001 days

101 things to do in 1001 days…
Some people make new years resolutions and most people break them. I always make them and I always break them. This year I wanted to challenge myself and do something a little bit different. I came across this idea while stocking another photographer's blog. I instantly wanted to create my own list.I know it sounds harder than making one new years resolution, but I think it's doable. I tried to set obtainable goals in a realistic period of time. By the end of the 1001 days, I hope to have made some new habits and quit some bad ones. We'll see. I'll keep you posted here on my blog as I progress.
