Four Numbers You Might Count to From One
1. Two (2)
A classic. Merely one more than one but twice as nice. Who hasn't counted 1 2. Even if you're eventually planning on "skip[ping] a few" afterwards, you simply have to include that two.
2. Zero (0)
We all love to count up, but once you'd done that, there's a countdown until someone decides to count down instead. Touted by many as our newest whole number, Zero is, nonetheless, a natural pick
3. One (1)
It's hip to be a square nowadays, so it's only right you start counting using powers. 0, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1,... isn't just for robots anymore.
4. Any Other Number
Did you know that any collection of integers can be a series? Well it's even better than that, any other collection of numbers can too. Maybe you're enumerating numbers by the lexicographic order of their roman numeral representation and 99 comes next. Maybe your counting by numbers with a single contiguous block of 1s when written in decimal and 1.1 comes next. The world is your oyster.
