101 Goals in 1001 Days

I found this and thought it would be great for me. Basically, set 101 goals to accomplish over the next 1001 days, which ends up being about 2 3/4 years. It gives you the flexibility to get the small things done and plan out the big things as well. Also, have fun with it. Don't just make everything something serious to accomplish. I think my favorite goal that I've seen someone set so far was "Start a fire with a magnifying glass." Here are my goals.
