New year, new goals, new me? EVERY YEAR!

I can do better.

I know that.  What I am uncertain of it HOW do I do better?  The famous quote right now is "When you know better, you do better."  It would follow that "knowing better" is the key to "doing better."  

So, that leaves me with the question, "how do I "know better.""  Easy answer.  Research.  Reading. Practicing habits that will propel me to learn more about my field, my life, my soulmate, and my universe.  

​Every year, I put forward a simple set of goals in my bullet journal and then record my progress along the way.  Here's an example from one of my teaching years.

As you can clearly see, I messed up a LOT.  Especially on the twitter chats.  But the idea isn't to get everything perfect.  The idea is to try new things, record how I interact with them, and evaluate their use in my life.  

I usually don't share my lists (with the noted exception of it things on my list have to do with my job, then I pilfer the pre-written list to copy and past the answers on the annual "what are your goals" document for work).  

So, here's the big professional goals for this school year.  Let's see how I do.
