A start......

I have been thinking a lot about how to start this blog.
To be honest I still don't have a clear idea.
So just starting maybe is the best solution....

This blog should be about my learning.
But then the first thing to do would be to decide for myself what I want to learn.
To write that down here in the first blog and then to describe in all the coming blogs how successful I am, or not...
Sounds great....but.... life is not that simple.

What do I want to learn!!??
Already for years I tell everybody that I want to learn how to better structure my work.
That I want to plan my work and then do it according the plan.
But in the end I do everything on the last day.....
And it seems that I'm quite happy with that.
Or maybe the only thing I have to learn is that I should be real happy about that and stop feeling stupid and guilty when I don't follow the plan...and just stop making plans that only frustrate me.
So... not something I want to focus on here...

What I really want to learn is to speak better Italian.
I live in this country now for three and a half year and it's poor ...very poor.
I'm motivated for that.... it makes sense to speak well the language of the country you are living in... it helps me for my survival...for my social life...
So... that's a clear learning point!! Speaking and understanding better Italian!

Then there's something about expressing myself more clear. A difficult one. But I think one that makes sense to work on. Needs in the first place some thinking, some analysing. Related mostly to working situations. To colleagues but maybe even more to participants in training courses. I have sometimes this tendency to say nothing when I should say something. Sounds a bit stupid....but I think it's worthwhile to dig in a bit...

Well...that's already two learning points!!
Maybe it's not necessary to decide now on everything... it is all life long learning...

Well there is on other thing related to this blog. I want to experiment a bit with other ways to express myself. Not only by words. Trying with pictures....video...or whatever.

OK...enough for now. My next step...blog...should be about taking at least up one of these two learning points.
But...I started!!
