Curiosity Challenge

It’s getting to be the end of the year, and I have to wrap up my monthly reports at work and write about the projects I’ve completed and the things I’ve learned, and of course what I’d rather do is think about all the things I want to do and learn NEXT. You know, when I have TIME.

It’s a crazy long list! Awake in the middle of the night earlier this week, I started to wonder just how long it really was. Are there 23 things I want to learn? 37? 51? 1,479?

So while I’m working this month to capture 2011 in my reports, I’m going to start a December Curiosity Challenge: to write an actual list of the topics I want to learn more about in 2012. This list will just be about learning ideas for work–the personal interest list is another long one, and I’m keeping it separate!

I’ll work on it all during December (I’m at 21 things so far) and in January I’ll take a good look at it and make a point to find the time to dig in to one or two of the ideas.

So how about you? How long is YOUR list?
