Hmmmm...Professional Goals

Some of the blogs I absolutely, positively love, are having a linky party. I was intrigued and inspired when I read some of the professional goals from other teachers. So, here goes!

Before I even begin, I need to say that this list could have 7,462 things on it, but I'm sticking with 3. Why?  I don't know. Maybe I don't want to disappoint myself. :)

1. I want to be a better planner. I guess it isn't really the planning, it is the putting it on paper so that maybe someone, anyone, could understand it. 

2.  Read. I need to read more. Some may laugh at this, because I read kid lit more than any one person should. I need to read more professional lit. Some may laugh at this, because I read more professional lit than one person should. Point is, I need to read kid lit with the "I want to write one of these one day" goggles. I need to read professional lit with the "I should write my own ideas down in hopes they will come in handy one day" goggles. 

3. Balance. I NEED balance in my life. I have got to work smarter, not harder. (I think I may have said that a time or two before.) I need to put things away instead of letting them pile up causing me to stay late resulting in less time with my little guy. That's just one example, but I think you get the idea.
