My new Year’s resolutions (2018)
As every year I try to visualize, and think about what are my wishes for the coming year, things I want to learn, improve etc.
This year, due the fact, that I want to start writing my thoughts, learnings, on a blog, as a way of saving the information and making personal retrospectives, plus sharing them, if somehow, the stories can help others… I thought there was no better way than writing my first post, including My new Year’s resolutions.
My resolutions are:
- Acquire the right balance between family and work
- Continue playing Kubetto once a week with my kid, as a way of teaching software development
- Talk in english with my kids
- Practice sports 3 times a week. Its key for my mind balance
- Funnel my strong character, without loosing my strenghts
- Do not start more projects than the ones I can deal with
- Mold my Weaknesses
- Finish the year with 103 kg or less ( started with 113)
- Read 8 technical books this year ( last year 6)
- Shifting my daily dev time to blockchain
- Keep on my focus on DDD
- Learn a new programming language (seems to be GO. Solidity is for granted)
- Attend not less than 4 conference this year .If there is chance give a talk o one, to improve speaking in public, and self confidence, will be a plus
- Try to be active on communities, twitter etc
- Restate my agile knowledge, learnings, reading, sharing etc.
- Read + learn more about management, team building etc
- Add pillars on my toolchain via XP, TDD and others
- Write on a blog.
I have some ideas for the blog:
- Tripolarity, the right equilibrium to make good business and tech decisions
- Lessons I learned and must learn, managing teams and being part of them, and how i applied them on next chances, or will try to ( I am on the way)
- Mistakes and successes working with DDD
- My first steps on Blockchain. What I like , dislike or will keep on figuring out
- From Cloudformation to Terraform. Why the switch and benefits
- How I envision Blockchain
If you are interested on some of the post drafts, please let me know, and i will raise their priority.
Lets see what becomes true, of all my wishes and challenges!
