  • Remember those moments when you just don’t feel like doing a task, but you know you have to?
  • Contrary to many Vince Lombardi-type motivations, willpower is more like an energy that can be depleted. Willpower is a finite resource. It works in cycles; it is something that you build on and know when to maximize.
  • As psychologist Roy Baumeister and science writer John Tierney pointed out in their Willpower book, it works a lot like a muscle. Like a muscle, it can get tired and need recovery.
  • ...11 more annotations...
  • It also needs to be nourished. It is affected by a lot of factors such as stress, physical health, and nutrition. In other words, your “spirit can be willing but the flesh is spongy and bruised.”
  • 1.) DEFINING WHAT MOTIVATES YOU
  • f there is no underlying passion and serious motivation behind a goal, temptations can easily power their way against you.
  • .) DIVIDING YOUR GOALS INTO SMALLER PIECES
  • Starting is actually the secret to accomplishing a lot of things. Just by starting, somehow you are compelled to continue on. 
  • 3.) GRADUAL PROGRESSION & ACCUMULATING POSITIVE REINFORCEMENT
  • 4.) YOUR HEALTH MATTERS
  • 5.) WORK ON YOUR EMOTIONAL BLOCKAGES
  • Find that breakthrough and learn why, at times, you may feel like it doesn’t matter.
  • 6.) ACKNOWLEDGING YOUR LIMITATIONS
  • 7.) MEDITATION

    Short (<2 minutes) by John Spencer, uploaded June 27, 2010 to YouTube on Starting a PLN. Although oriented somewhat toward teachers, it is valuable for anyone to get a sense of what a PLN is and why it might be a good idea to do.

    This video by Seth Dickens poses two questions 1) What do I know that could be shared? and 2) What do I want to learn? While I might disagree with the order, the rest of the video (about 4 minutes long) does a beautiful job of explaining what a learning (professional or personal) network is and what it allows one to do to connect purposeful and learn. Other information: Uploaded on Feb 21, 2012 This short video is an introduction to PLNs; known also as "Professional Learning Networks" and "Personal Learning Networks." These simple, organic networks help professionals to continually learn and add new skills and knowledge through informal learning. I'd be delighted to add you to my PLN, whether you're just getting started, or have already established a network.

    Helen Barrett's home page on eportfolios for learning. She includes a keynote address she did on portfolios for an educators group in Hamilton, NZ in February 2015. Lots of excellent individual slides on lifelong learning and how the portfolio is a laboratory.

    Excellent blog on valuable July reads by Jane Hart led me to this blog post by Thomas Handcock and Warren Howlett, July 29, 2014, CEB Blogs, a very good discussion of building productive learning cultures. They recommend three steps: 1. Right size opportunities (which on the surface sounds fine but then they say that the "best organizations limit learning opportunities to those that are most relevant to employees and impactful for the organization but then rely on their (HR's) determination of learning needs (how do employees express their learning needs in this scenario? how does it support ownership and spontaneity beyond annual surveys? Of course they are talking about BIG corporations.) and "learning maturity" which sounds condescending to me) 2. Advance the organization's learning capability (most of this rings truer to me than #1 but it may be that my perception of what they say in #1 is slanted and hypersensitive). Here they talk about "teaching employees how to learn." "this lack of learning aptitude is primarily a capability issue, not a matter of employee motivation." 3. Foster shared ownership of the learning environment (which overcomes much of my objection to what they say in #1)
