I'm not usually one to make extravagant New Year's Resolutions, but this year.... I am going to raise from the dead one from 2004.
In 2004 I had written down a personal goal for a course in Managing Quality at Keller Graduate School. Here it is:
| Personal Goals | ||||||||
| Goal 1: | Complete SCUBA certification; buy all necessary equipment. | |||||||
| Take additional Advanced Open Water Diver and Shipwreck Diver Courses. | ||||||||
Measurement: |
PADI Open Water Diver certification course is in progress, open water dive is left. |
|||||||
| Have purchased: Mask, snorkel, gloves, fins, buoyancy compensation device (BCD), | ||||||||
| dive computer, 4mm wetsuit, compass, dive log, air tank, gauges, and dive planner. | ||||||||
Progress: |
Equipment needed: Would like an underwater dive camera. | |||||||
| Additional courses: Advanced Open Water Certification course will be in March, followed by Shipwreck Diver course in July. | ||||||||
Degree of Difficulty: |
Easily accomplished |
|||||||
While this seems like it was an easy goal, what happened after this was written changed the course of my life. I was in a really bad car accident that year. I had to discontinue school, spent the next 2 years in physical therapy and doctor visits, and ultimately I lost my house. All of it is getting back on track finally: I feel better, bought a new home, and share it with a great man. Now for the goals again... I want to reinstate them now!
This was one, travel was another, restore my '64 Falcon was the third. I want all of these reinstated, please!
