Three Goals Straight March 12, 2008

Don’t think, don’t hope, do!
Do something!
So goes the famous quote by former Hawthorn coach John Kennedy in a team address during the 1975 VFA Grand Final.
Anyone who runs out onto a football ground and tells their direct opponent that they will kick three goals straight during the game is shooting themself in the foot.
That’s my way of saying I don’t like to be over-confident. I’m quietly aware of my own abilities and enjoy being recognised for them but I’ve never been a bar-pusher.
Honours is significant for me in a number of ways:
-
It is a legitimate way of compensating for Prof Comm’s lack of a necessary fourth year.
-
It provides me some ‘career-pondering’ time while I continue to use my tertiary-learned skills.
-
It provides a solid platform to work on further developing a practical folio of work in whichever field I choose.
-
It means I can stay in Melbourne for at least another year.
Having said that, here are three goals I would like to kick this year:
-
Produce a professional project that will develop my broadcast media skills and impress potential employers.
-
Engage in some clearer understanding of the importance of communication theory.
-
Find my calling within the field of broadcast media and be confident in my decision.
Come off the ground and say ‘I did this, I shepherded, I played on. At least I did something.’
