I consider this goal complete when/if: I regularly go to group meetings of a group I have joined. I expect there will be at least a 3 month commitment to this
Why this is on my list: I would like to meet new people, hopefully who have a common interest with me. I think I would like to join a book group, but I'm open to other kinds of groups.

I consider this goal complete when/if: While I am engaged during the 1001 days
Why this is on my list: I have been with my boyfriend, Justin for six and a half years. We are finally getting to the point in our lives where we are both done with school and will hopefully both be employed. We really want to get married soon.

49. Go on a date every month with Justin
I will consider this goal complete if/when: Every month I go out on a date with Justin. The date has to be planned ahead of time so that it counts as a date.
Why this goal is on my list: I spend time with my boyfriend all the time, but we tend to be homebodies. We aren't good at thinking up things to do spur of the moment, so this will encourage planning and maybe doing new things at least once a month.

48. Make a new friend
I consider this goal complete if/when: I have made a new friend that I enjoy spending time with
Why this is on my list: I am not good at making friends. I'm pretty shy, I wonder what other people think about me, and I'm bad at making plans. This goal is here to help me get out of my comfort zone, because I really want some friends to hang out with.

47. Make a conscious effort to speak louder and be heard the first time I say something
I consider this goal complete if/when: I feel that people are asking me to repeat myself less often, and I feel more confident in speaking with others after 1001 days
Why this is on my list: This is one of my least measurable goals, but I thought it was important to include. I tend to shy away in conversations, and not speak up. Often times I think I am speaking loud enough to be heard, but I'm really not. I need to practice enunciating and projecting my voice. I think I could also improve my assertive body language, to assert my presence in a conversation.
