So, finally ready to discuss my 2014 goals…
Certification
Status: Pass, 1 exam left for MCSE, just need to get it knocked out. I am still prepping for Tableau Desktop and Hortonworks Certified Apache Hadoop 2.0 Developer.
Projects
Status: Pass, Hard to measure, but all projects are in good shape and met all deadlines.
Healthcare VC:
Status: Pass, We had a good run last year and have had a few months off. Jumping back in this month and really need to get it where we want/expect it to be.
SQL Events/Training:
Status: Pass, I attended 1 SQLSaturday (Nashville) and the PASS BA Conference in the spring. Normally, with formal training this year I would say this is a failure, but I was able to learn a lot on my own in many new areas.
Learn something new:
Status: Pass, this started slowly , but I’ve spent most of my time lately with R, Tableau and Hadoop. Still need to look at BIML more.
Blog:
Status: Fail. Not nearly enough posts. I’ll try again in 2015.
Technical Books:
Status: Pass. I lost count of many I read which is a good thing, but need to start doing some reviews of those.
Review Yearly Goals:
Status: Fail. I stopped looking by mid year.
So, not good but not bad either. I had a great year, but really fell short with blogging and speaking. I’m trying to find a better way to quantify my goals for 2015. Maybe I need a Dashboard and Metrics…
