What Next?
Often as students we tend to think of course work as an ends to a means to
graduation. This can be especially true for coursework unrelated to our majors or as
a requirement for another course. Following the completion of some courses
students are often left with a feeling of frustration over a lack of learning or an
overwhelming feeling that they have just completely wasted their time over the
past four months. As a fairly optimistic person, I tend to believe that even in the
worst of situations that a person has the opportunity to take something away from
the experience. Fortunately this course for me was not a negative learning
experience, but instead a very favorable one.
Commitment to Writing
A lifelong learning is not much without a commitment to using it. I am going to
personally commit to keeping a journal and writing at least at the beginning and
ending of every day. It will be a lot easier for me to stay committed to this, if I use
technology to keep up with the task. I do not seem to write as well when writing
with a pen. So using a computer is probably a good way for me to go. I would like to
post some of my writing, but would also like the freedom to have some of the
thoughts and writings to remain private. If any of you knows a good format for this, I
would appreciate your input.
I could really use some help in putting a plan together to accomplish this goal. So if
anyone knows of a good web site on writing books and getting them published, or
knows anyone that has written a book before, I would love the help.
