Resolutions?!
Jan. 4th, 2022 09:27 I don't think I've ever set resolutions, really, but I actually do have several goals/improvements I'd like to achieve this year:
- Be more focused at work, and start working on longer term projects. Seek out connections to other colleagues to identify where I can help.
- Write more long form meta (and continue to resist forming thoughts in twitter length bites!)
- Be more deliberate about social media usage.
- Be better about reaching out to people (both in and out of fandom), bc conversation is often more satisfying than mindless consumption.
- I think this means I need to more aggressively unfollow people + curate, but it's hard bc people take that as a Social Signal... (I did finally go through and revoke access for people who haven't been on DW in years, not that I lock anything anyway. Just in case.)
- Reorganize my DW/tumblr tags and either set up proper links between them or nuke tumblr entirely.
- Continue to track books and media consumption.
- Come up with some way to track my short story and long form news article consumption? (I currently bookmark the best-of, but it seems too cluttered to track /everything/ on DW. What to do...)
- Continue to actively practice Chinese. I'll set a goal of reading two cnovels to match this year.
- I discovered this year that the tidiness of my space really affects my outlook. I'll set a goal of donating the things that I no longer need (and so don't have a dedicated 'home') as soon as numbers decrease in this area.
