Targets - Hopes - Strivings

I'm on a self-improvement kick at the moment. I've set myself targets.

Japanese

- JLPT Level N1 by 2012. Currently studying.

- One new Keigo phrase per week, minimum.

- Finish the Harry Potter books in Japanese by March. About 30% through.

- Keep a diary in Japanese every day for 30 days. Will start today.


Diet

- Less than five cups of coffee per day. Achieved.

- Two regular-sized snacks maximum per day, preferably replace all with fruit. Trying it now.


Psychology

- Refrain from anger regarding slow and/or erratic human traffic.

- See more good. Be less judgemental.

  1. Interesting.... do you really think people can train themselves to be less judgemental? If you succeed in this please let me know as I need to be less so. Ditto for the see more good!

  2. I think it takes practice and an open mind and actually, an active imagination so as you can provide reasons for that person's annoying 'traits' which may actually be one-off or limited behaviours.

    Saying that, if you're annoyed with someone (as I am at the moment) it's quite easy to be even more judgemental about them.

    Cheers.
