So here's the story.


I'm afraid of mediocrity. I'm afraid that if I don't do anything with my life, it'll be worth nothing. I don't need to change the world... but I need to change MY world.

In 2011, the year I turn 21, I'm setting out to achieve twenty one goals. Twenty one things that must be completed by 11:59 pm, December 31, 2011.

This is my journal.

This is the story of how I defeated mediocrity.

10. Read 12 important books
11. Create a 10-minute arthouse film
12. Do a 365 Photo Challenge

    You're right, I'm only here for the bit after the end.

    Hurray for crossing off a goal! Don't get too down on yourself about not getting through the list quicker. You'll get there. Or you won't. Either way you'll have done Some Things.

    Slow but steady. Alot of your list are eventual goals. Like the licence, the 365 photos and the books.

    But you know you could make 5 people + a few more dinner next weekend!!
