I've been negligent! With my clients and myself. I've been forgetting to set intellectual goals. I realized I've been repressing my inner nerd. So I've set some nerdy goals.
I've got 3 languages I'd like to learn in the next 5 years. I took 6 years of Spanish; so being fluent by the end of this year shouldn't be too tough.
Then I came across Mark Zuckerberg's new page, A Year of Books. He's set a goal to read 26 books this year and, to date; he's got 274,000 accountability partners. And I want in! I'm excited to learn more about the world, as the first two books have been incredibly informative and enlightening already!
It's fun to see the conversations on FB and the live chats with the author, but I craved an in-person discussion. I'd love for you to participate in my Year of Books book club at the Minooka library. We'll meet twice a month and for the first two sessions will discuss whatever books the people that come have read (even if you haven't finished).
Like A Year Of Books on Facebook and think about how you want to grow your mind this year. Often we think about how to turn our minds off, but have we really decided what we want to turn them on to this year?
