Thing 19 encourages us to take a minute and think about the Things we’ve looked at so far and how we might integrate them into our lives.

Many of the tools that we’ve explored are things that I’m familiar with already and for the most part, I’ve already made the decision about whether or not to integrate them into my life. However, I do have a renewed interest in Evernote after exploring it in Thing 9. It is a really useful tool, and I’m going to make a point to use it more often.

So far, for me, the most valuable part of CPD 23 has not been learning about tools; it’s been the Things where we are asked to reflect on certain aspects of our careers. I’ve enjoyed taking the chance to think about how my career has gone so far and about things I would like to do differently in the future. I’m glad that this program gave me the chance to take some time out of my normal schedule and think about these things.
