Because Bucket Lists Don't Have Deadlines

Today is Day Zero, for me anyways. 

 Because this weekend I started my 101 things to do in 1001 days list.  

I know what your thinking, "Kelly enough with the lists already."   

Loud and clear, blogosphere... 

Let me explain.

I love my bucket list.  LOVE it!  And I'm definitely working on it.  

However, the main problem with a Bucket List is there is no deadline - 

at least for anyone who's not terminally ill or something.
I might live for another 60 - 80 years, (my great grandpa lived to 100 - I got good genes)
 so really, there's no pressure on me TODAY.
Sure I do things when they are convenient for me,
but when is Riding Elephants in Thailand (number 11) going to be convenient?

See the problem?

The great thing about Day Zero is it gives you a deadline.  

We all know how much more we can accomplish when the deadline is looming, 

which is the beauty of Day Zero.  

And the 1001 days is a realistic deadline,

 its about 2.75 years so that gives you multiple seasons to plan ahead, 

but not too many that your goal gets swept under the rug.

The rules are simple : Tasks must be specific, with a result that is clearly defined.

I've pulled some tasks from my original bucket list and put them onto Day Zero.  

I've also added lots of new ones.
