Right around the start of 2014 I decided to make a list of 26 things I want to do or accomplish before I turn 26. Ever since I made the list I have been really motivated to make each day and opportunity count- it's amazing the power of setting goals! The hardest part of the process so far has been making the list. Thankfully, there are many similar lists or 101 in 1001 challenges out there to use as inspiration.
26 before 26
(just started one!)
2-workout everyday for a week (completed on 2/11)
3-lose 10 pounds
(about half way there :) )
4-read 26 books
(I need to get going on this...)
5-give up meat for a week
6-volunteer
7-write letters to graduating seniors
(a tradition at my school)
8-get makeup done from a high end counter
9-plan a vacation
(Charleston SC??)
10- randomly bake cookies for school
11- do a paint and wine class
12- eat on "The Hill"
(yum!)
13- go to the zoo
14- get more art for bedroom
15-plant a garden
16-get a massage
(just bought a Groupon for one)
17-buy a lottery ticket
18-get a pedicure
19-go ice skating
20-try a body pump class at the gym
21-get dessert at Cheesecake Factory
22-make a Pinterest craft
23-donate blood
24-go to a blow dry bar
25-bring hubby lunch at work
26-give up soda for Lent
I made this list a little late in the game- a little over 5 months until my 26th birthday. My 27 before 27 list will definitely have bigger, long term goals... but until then I'm excited to keep crossing things off!
