The Lifelong Learner         by Stanley Kubasek | About Me |

I'm a goal oriented person, no question about it. I write and re-write my goals constantly. I think it's a great way to develop your vision; a great way to see yourself into the future; and a great way to continuously improve.

There are some additional things I started doing lately...

First, I started writing a journal. A personal journal. No you cannot see it. :-) A lot of successful people keep journals. And they had kept journals long way back. It's a great way to let out your feelings. It's a great way to reflect on what you did. It's a great way to remind yourself what you learned today -- I call it a learning log. It's a great way to become a better writer. I recommend you start. I have an online blog, which I password protected. I think it's important that it is private -- you have to free your mind completely. I think you can find a free service that let's you create a private blog; if not, buy a regular notebook.

Second, I'm really enjoying checking off my daily goals at JoesGoals.com. It's a very simple application: you define your daily goals, and you check them off throughout the day. There is something special about doing things this way. When I check off a goal, I feel good. I can also progress I made last week. Check it out.

That's it for now. I know that if you want to become better... you have to do new things or improve the things you are doing. Writing out your goals and keeping a journal is a good way to continuously improve.
