How can I reach my goal sooner? | Adrian’s Journal #191209

Happy Birthday, Dad! On this day, we celebrate Dad’s birthday every year. I’m sorry I had to work over the weekend and cannot join in for dinner. Let’s party at JB this weekend instead! :) So looking forward to it.

I have been conducting the full-day video creation class for 3 consecutive days, from Friday to Sunday. So I declare today, Monday, my official long weekend day (3 into 1). Time to relax and reflect…

Reflect? What have I done? What worked? What did not work? How can I reach my goal sooner?

What did I learn?

• What is Vlogmas? Vlogmas is a yearly tradition in which vloggers of the YouTube community gear up for Christmas by posting a video each day of December. Similar to VEDA (Vlog Every Day in April) and Vlogtober, this vlogging tradition has a Christmas spin to it, with vloggers eager to get their viewers in the holiday spirit. They make it their mission to post a video for all 24 days leading up to Christmas. – http://resourcemagonline.com/2017/12/everything-you-need-to-know-about-vlogmas/84008/ …oh no… I’m late for vlogmas!
