Thing 2: Lifelong Learning

I overcame my first obstacle to my lifelong learning 23 Things plan by arranging with a work colleague to have an hour off the desk to listen to podcasts and work on my 23 Things assignment!

The easiest habit for me would be begin with the end in mind. I always have a goal in mind when I start a new project or tackle a new problem. The hardest for me is to view problems as challenges. When I run into a roadblock, my first reaction is not "Oh, goody! A new learning opportunity!" It's more like "Argh! I cannot BELIEVE that just happened! What am I going to do now?" I'll have to try to step back, take a breath and start over, keeping the goal in mind.
