2008 Goal Rides?

Elk, excellent goals...

I always tell the students to keep their goals smart...

I had a couple of "get up THAT hill" goals this year... one I am transferring to 2008

thanks RR. I agree. I tell my writing students to set a time when they know they can write for 3 minutes every day...and keeping that app't is ALL they have to do...except they have to write for 3 minutes nonstop....not THINK about writing....2 things happen
1. They often go more than 3 minutes and feel like champs ( as opposed to setting a goal for 1 hour, only doing 10 minutes and feeling like a loser)
2. They are AMAZED at how many pages start piling up after a month...

complicated tricky things these human brains!!!
so here's to the hills!
