Hi everyone! Saw the announcement and immediately ran here.

My question is this: do any of you have any goals that you’ve been actively working on?

For me, I’ve been trying to work on my GED that I abandoned a decade ago. Signed up for courses and everything.

Another thing I am trying to learn is more about Dialectical Behaviour Therapy and how that can help me learn how to cope with stress.

Finally, I have major ADHD so I’ve been trying to do note-taking in my day to day life. Started journaling, taking notes on Youtube videos I watch that I think are important for me to remember, habit tracking, so forth.

How about you? What are you trying to do to better yourself?

  • I want to finish my PhD! my almost final draft with results is currently being reviewed by my committee. With any luck, I’ll be able to defend and finish next semester. It’s taken me 6 years and by this time the topic is already stale and other research has passed it by. But I’m working full time as well, so there’s only so many hours in the day.
