“Real” New Year Resolutions.
Wednesday, January 2nd, 2008After viewing Rolf’s recent resolution videocast ( Episode 26 ) you may be interested in some help with “real” new year resolutions, but photography ones of course! An article by Thom Hogan available here is an excellent read and provides some advice on having attainable photographic goals.
It was not written with new year in mind but I stumbled across it just recently. He suggests having combinations of short and long term goals, all with quantifiable results.
As there is little I can add to his piece I will just list some of the goals I came up with myself after reading it:
- Enrol on a photography course. Starts Jan 16th!
- Tag those thousands of images that do not have tags, at least an hour a week.
- Create a photography website. Work on it at least an hour a week.
- Shoot at least one half day every week and produce one printable image that I would be happy to hang on the wall.
Now all these objectives have dates and specific details assigned but be warned, I proudly showed these aims to my wife. Her response “It looks like you have resolved to do even more of the things you already enjoy doing”.
“Errr…Yes…”
