5 101 in 1001 (again)

Here is my list for my second shot at a 101 in 1001. Anything with a * is carryover from the last 101 in 1001.

Start Date - April 14th, 2011
End Date - January 9th, 2014

Items in green are in progress. Items in blue are completed. Items in crossed out are cancelled (plans or timelines have changed).

Number Completed - 43
Number In Progress -11
Number Not Started - 40
Number Cancelled - 7

Conclusion

It sucks not finishing. It sucks even more to not even get half done. Those 11 that are in progress...they are all so close. I had 2 movies left to watch, the yoga classes are bought and start soon. The biggest problem is that so many of the items I had listed were major projects and while back in 2011 it seemed realistic when push came to shove it really wasn't. I never factored in that things never go as planned. Projects are delayed, Contractors take off, products can't be found. And honestly, work took over the last couple of years. That shed we built in our backyard in 2012? Yep, still not done. It shouldn't be like this. How in 1001 days can I not find a few hours to bake bread??

Over the last few days I have been thinking about the results and if I want to do another round. I decided that I do but that it needs to be more about me. More growth, more making life what I want it to be.
