I’ve been posting twice now about what to do after the exams (here is a post full of links) but I also have some goals this summer.
I got the news thursday (which I haven’t told you yet!) that I graduated from High School and that I’m going to study medicine next year! It’s absolutely certain now! I’m joning medschool next year, yippii!
The Goals
Here are my goals.
- Get a good system. If I want to achieve success at the University next year, I need to have some sort of system which works for me. Some sort of to-do list system, calendar and more. For this goal, I need YOU! Give me ideas of which systems works for you and why.
- Get cleaned up. I will move to a student house next year, but I will keep coming back to my parents in the weekend, so I want my entire room and desk cleaned up! Closet all sorted out, get rid of all the junk.
- Put StudySuccessful to another level. Another level sounds big, but I just want to improve the site. Come with better articles, more interesting, attract more readers, those things! I think my writing style is already a lot better if you look at what I wrote half a year ago!
- Write an e-book. I can’t keep this in front of me, I want to write some sort of e-book, as an experiment. A little, not more than 30 pages e-book on a subject study related. It will be free to download.
- Have a fantastic summer. I can scratch this one of my list already, cause my summer is great already. Had a fantastic time in Rome with friends and I had some great graduated-party’s already!
I will keep you informed once in a while about my summer goals, how far I am on those goals. I think the most of you will be students, what are your goals for the summer of 2009? Share it in the comments!

awesomeness.
now that you’ve made it public you’ve gotta capitalise and make it happen eh
what you doing at university?
keen to check out your ebook – drop me a copy for a review when you’re done.
peaceness
alex – unleash reality
I’m going to study Medicine! Becoming a doctor right!
Yeah I would give you a copy sounds good!
Do you have any goals? Or afraid to make them public
Thanks for the comment Alex!
for the system: try looking into GTD (just google it, there’s a billion blog posts about it) and Evernote
both work awesomely for me
and I combine that with my google calendar which is accessable everywhere
Allright! Yeah I know something about GTD, but I should read David’s book I guess
I checked evernote lately, and that does work pretty good. But I think I should have some sort of offline system also.
Thanks for the tips Nizzle, you’re great!
Well I’m hoping that my new blog will be a great success, and that’s one of my goals for the summer. I also plan to try and build up Teenius as much as possible.
I’m going to be going to the gym most days too, so hopefully I can get a bit fitter
If you’re looking for an offline note program you should look at microsoft office (2007) onenote. It’s real easy to work with. On dutch universities you can probably get MS Office for free.
An alternative to GTD is ZTD from zenhabits.com you might also want to take a look at that
@ Simon
You know I wish you all the best with that new blog!
@ Erik
I’m going to try OneNote! Thanks for the tip. Yeah MS Office is a common used program in the Netherlands, I think it would be free!
Thanks for the comments both!
Thanks for the kind wishes Stefan!
I’m looking forward to reading your ebook, sounds really good if it’s as high quality as this blog!
What sort of study will it be based around?
Hmm.. I want to keep that a secret for a little while.
Besides it, I’m exploring a subject now, but I’m not sure it’s going to be about that.
So that will be unknown for a little while!
Very nice, I wish you the best of luck at your university. I have recently started reading your posts and you seem very motivated. You are heading in the right direction to complete your summer goals. By the way Onenote is great I use it for all my classes. I also love to use post its.
As for my goals I am trying to build up my website. Articles are posted from successful proffesionals in all fields to help our generation of leaders meet and surpass there achievements. Check it out at, http://www.emergingtiro.com. Also try to make as much money as possible to live at school next year. It’s also my summer vacation, so, I need to have fun!
Hey Ryan, I like your blog, I’m going to subscribe to see what you all got in there!
Now I’m definitly going to try OneNote
Have a good summer!
