#43 Quotes

"Then,
little by little,
O Lord,
with a most mild
and merciful hand
You touched
and calmed
my heart."

-Confessions of St. Augustine, p139

Yes, I'm still reading the same classic book. Yes, I realize that this probably puts me way behind schedule for finishing this goal on time...

but some books are worth reading slowly.

Confessions is DEFINITELY not one to fly through...and it's one worth revisiting from time to time, too :)

101 in 1001 Defined

The Mission: Complete 101 preset tasks in a period of 1001 days.
The Criteria: Tasks must be specific (ie. no ambiguity in the wording) with a result that is either measurable or clearly defined. Tasks must also be realistic and stretching (ie. represent some amount of work on my part).
Why 1001 Days? Many people have created lists in the past — frequently simple goals such as new year’s resolutions. The key to beating procrastination is to set a deadline that is realistic. 1001 Days (about 2.75 years) is a better period of time than a year, because it allows you several seasons to complete the tasks, which is better for organizing and timing some tasks such as overseas trips or outdoor activities.
