My Day Zero Project

Sharing is caring!

As well all know a new year has begun. Most people set resolutions and end up forgetting about them or failing at them. I stopped doing resolutions YEARS ago because I wouldn’t stick to them.

I am a goal oriented person. I like having a list, checking it off, and getting to the end, preferably with a prize. If I don’t have a list I will totally forget about it…

When I came across the Day Zero project I knew I had to make a list. This is exactly what I needed to kick start my goals for the year. The project lasts 1001 days and you set 101 goals that you want to do. Picking my goals was harder then I thought, but after 3 days I was done. My reward for completing it? The money I save for each goal I complete will me be used on ME and only ME!

My husband always laughs at me and tells me I am the queen at returning stuff. I will buy myself something and 9 times out of 10 return it. I always feel guilty for spending money on myself. I would rather spend it on the kids, house, or husband.

1001 days is pretty far away, but I want to have most, if not all my goals completed by the end of 2012. Wish me luck!
