PMI - the Project Management Institute and owner of the PMBOK standard - defines a project as temporary and unique:

• A project is temporary in that it has a defined beginning and end in time, and therefore defined scope and resources.


• A project is unique in that it is not a routine operation, but a specific set of operations designed to accomplish a singular goal.

 More simply put a project collects all tasks you need to do to achive a specific outcome - and usually you have some idea when this should be finished.
