[30 Day Challenge] 30 Lists of 30

Random Observation/Comment #452: It’s easy to take shortcuts, but sometimes you just need to sit down and do it.

Q: Why do you make so many lists?

A: Lists are awesome. They don’t need any type of ranking – they just represent easy to digest brain dumps of ideas.  I think my brain is just a constant stream of consciousness and when I listen to it, it answers questions in the form of lists.  The act of writing a list itself helps me further process the information and remember what’s been reviewed.

Q: What’s the 30 List challenge?

A: Every day, for the next 30 days, I will publish a list of 30 items related to the list name/topic. The writing of the list will be done nightly in one sitting.  I may cheat and write the framing of the blogposts ahead of time, but I want to try to reflect all at once.

Q: What are the 30 Lists List?

A: Glad you asked because as Day 0, here’s my first 30 lists within a 30 list list form (I confused myself):
