As an American K-12 educator involved in the daily grind we all need to seek validation from outside an institution notorious for the lack of validation.</p>Allanah King commented on 'I will act now: Happy New Year 2011'tag:typepad.com,2003:6a00d83451f00f69e20147e133d158970b2011-01-02T09:43:42Z2011-01-02T09:43:42ZAllanah Kinghttp://allanahk.edublogs.org/Thanks- that was a good kick for me.

I have been putting off a task that needs me to just do so I can move on to other things and enjoy the rest of my holidays.</p>
<p>I am even printing it out so I can see it often.</p>
<p>Happy New Year indeed.</p>James Michie commented on 'I will act now: Happy New Year 2011'tag:typepad.com,2003:6a00d83451f00f69e20148c73ac8c8970c2011-01-01T23:32:27Z2011-01-01T23:32:27ZJames Michiehttp://jamesmichie.com/blogSound principles to live/work by.

<p>My Twitter use works in phases, often dropping in on a conversation that takes my interest. Other days, I don't even turn TweetDeck on. </p>
<p>I apply the same approach to email, particularly at work. One day per week I turn the email off; raising an eyebrow or two from my colleagues. My response, I'm paid to teach not check email.</p>
<p>If you're going to get things done it is important to shut out the noise no matter how engaging that noise may be.</p>
<p>I plan to join you in "acting now" as much as possible in 2011. </p>
<p>Happy New Year!</p>
