101 in 1001

I have decided to take the plunge and share something personal on the blog. I love setting goals, and even more than I love to set them, I love to achieve them. I belong to an amazing woman’s photography group and a few of those ladies have totally inspired me to write my own 101 goals in 1001 days.

I am so excited to take some me time to make the most out of life and do those things that I have set out to do. I am still young, so might as well get started on these 🙂 I have 2.75 years to complete my partial bucket list 🙂

Follow along and create your own. Set a goal and make it happen. You only have one today, you can never get it back.

So my 101 days starts today! I will update my blog every time I cross a few things off this list. Enjoy.
