Day 22: FORGET NEW YEAR'S RESOLUTIONS

Forget New Year's resolutions - I would like you to come up with goals for the next 1001 days. Don't worry, it doesn't have to be 101 goals, as I have planned, but at least five good goals that you'd like to accomplish in the next two and three-quarter years.
Of course, if you feel inspired, you can always take part in the 101 Goals in 1001 Days.

This is an interesting prompt because I recently started reviewing my 60 Things to do in my 6th Decade. I would also like to do the 101 Things to do in a 1001 Days. My 60 Things to do in my 6th Decade would fit right into the 101 Things to do in a 1001 Days. However, since I seem to be having trouble setting priorities and focusing on anything but worries lately, I’m going to work on the 6th Decade list until it is complete. Then I’m going to work on the 1001 Days list.

I think I posted a version of the 6th Decade list in my port when I turned 60. I have since revised the list and made some of the items more concrete so that I can say specifically when I accomplish them. Sometimes when I set goals, I set them too large without a specific way of telling if I accomplish the goal.

Anyway, here are the goals I’ve set and am attempting to accomplish.
