I'm doing 17 things
I took one class in Fall 2010, Spring 2011, and Fall 2011. During the summer I reviewed a few papers with a professor to broaden my understanding of a few topics pertinent to a project I have in mind. However, if I plan to graduate any time soon, I need to pickup the pace with two or three classes a semester.

How I did it
It made me 
How I did it: "Get Organized" is such a vague goal. Goals need to meet the SMART criteria: Specific Measurable Attainable Relevant Time-bound So, instead, I have broken this into a multitude of goals for each area in my life. Read how I did it…

How I did it: This definitely requires a time commitment. You have to write 50,000 words in 30 days! The object of this exercise is quantity - not quality! Now the fun part is cleaning up the mess and seeing what can be salvaged. Read how I did it…
