# I don’t normally do this but I am going to have a word for 2018 and that word is expand.
It is multi-faceted and encompasses (at least) the following:
- expand my mind - I'm going to join the local library and read more actual paper books,
- expand my knowledge - I intend to learn more, to study, which is obviously related to the above, and
- expand my creative output - I don't know how yet but I want to produce something that's not just blog posts.
I feel like I’ve just been drifting along with no real direction so, this year, that’s going to change. It may just be the start of a long journey but I hope for it to be a fulfilling one.
Here’s to a great year!
