Getting it together would be good (life that is)

Just saw a link to this page again. It’s the “clean sweap” program and it is something I’ve kinda wanted to do …

The Clean Sweep Program is a checklist of 100 items which, when completed, give one complete personal freedom. These 100 items are grouped in 4 areas of life with 25 in each group: Physical Environment, Well-being, Money and Relationships. These 4 areas are the cornerstone for a strong and healthy life and the program helps a person to clean up, restore and polish virtually every aspect of his/her life. The program takes between 6 - 24 months to complete.

I want to have everything checked off.
