Resolutions

Well I have to do it. What else are you supposed to do this year? So here we go:

Financial: Payoff debt. Don’t know if I can get it all done this year, but I need to take a big chunk out of it. I have planned out my spending for the year and it will be a pretty tight time, but hopefully that makes life easier after that.

Career: My boss is very encouraging about getting certifications. I would like to get certified as a pro user for all of Final Cut Studio, and additionally certified as a trainer for Final Cut Pro. We will also be building a TV/Radio Studio Facility. I have already learned a lot during the planning stage and I am sure I will learn more as we build it. At the end of the process, I would like to have enough knowledge to head up a project if I get an opportunity to build another one.

Learning: I learned a long time ago that in order to get good at something, you have to spend time doing little things everyday for many years. I have always made an effort to keep learning new things, but this year I want to reinforce that effort by writing down at least one thing that I learn everyday. I will be blogging a new piece of information each day at JustaJunkie.com. Most of the post will probably be about what I learn for work, so you should expect digital cinema, photography, journalism, web apps, audio production, or what ever other nugget I come across each day.

Health: I need to get in better shape. It is beautiful weather out here in Doha right now, so just a simple walk everyday will make a difference.

Creativity: This one has been the hardest for me. I have been forcing the issue lately and not gotten anywhere. I am still working on this it, but don’t have any answers. I’ll let you know when I get it figured out.
