Open letter-Learn from the Depression Era-Teach to the Millennials

My Dad kept a journal every day.  He started with his journal, kept notes on 3x5 index cards and transferred them to his journal every day-for 90 years.  He never spoke about it-he only recorded it.  We chuckle when we think about all those trees which were felled for index cards-my Dad was a paper chemist.  I am no better.  I still keep a manual DayTimer, but don’t journal.  My kids tease me about my DayTimer, but there will be no legacy I will leave my kids on YouTube.  They call me “Old School”-I like that!
My kids have been home for the holidays, but it all ends today.  The circus resumes tomorrow.  If they haven’t done so it is a fresh start and a great chance to reflect and plan.
  1. What did you accomplish last year?  You both have good jobs now…and your own health insurance.  What changes do you want to make for this year?
  2. What do you want to accomplish this coming year that will lead you where you want to go?  Think about subjects concerning family, career, community and spirituality.
  3. How many books will you read this year?  It really does not matter what you read.  Reading expands your mind and your vocabulary.
  4. What seminars/classes will you take about something you know nothing to very little about?  Fill the holes in your knowledge gaps.
  5. Where do you want to go this year that you have not been?  I will expose myself-I want to go to Campobello, Glacier National Park and the Balkans.
Thanks JJT!  I had to learn from you through osmosis, and there is more learning to do.
