The internet is full of fun little projects that have the potential of devouring hours of your day in a single fell keystroke. I find myself stumbling across them on a near daily basis anymore. Every now and then though, one in particular will stick out as something actually worth my time and energy. Over at Triplux.com, a personal website for Michael Green, an interesting and enticing project is taking shape in 101 things. Like myself, Green is an avid list junky, and out of that interest grew the idea. It’s basically a list of 101 things to accomplish, an immense to do list, within the next 1001 days, or a little under three years.
Over a hundred people are listed with websites on which they’re attempting the feat. It is a feat too. Don’t let the three years part fool you. These aren’t daily to do lists. Though you are free to choose whatever you want for your list, it’s generally accepted that these things should be unique and different, things you wouldn’t normally do unless it was recorded somewhere.
Green lists a few tips for your lists:
1. Be decisive. Know exactly what you want, why you want it, and how you plan to achieve it.
2. Stay Focused. Any goal requires sustained focus from beginning to end. Constantly evaluate your progress.
3. Welcome Failure. Frequently, very little is learned from a venture that did not experience failure in some form. Failure presents the opportunity to learn and makes the success more worthy.
4. Write down your goals. It clarifies your thinking and reinforces your commitment.
5. Keep your goals in sight. Review them frequently, and ensure that they are always at the forefront of your thinking.
It’s a great project to undertake for all you list fiends out there, and more over the common spaces atmosphere of the internet gives you a vast and endless forum in which you can discuss and receive support for and about your list. You’ll get it done.
This is one of those internet projects that I see taking a sharp upturn in coming months, and for those of you looking for the next big thing to dive into and become a part of, this is as good a place to start as any
