2022 Listening with a purpose and more 2022 goals

At some point in 2020 (maybe before) I started taking notes on books, podcasts, courses, etc... I was reading/listening to. This sort of wained in 2021 but I'm going to start this again in 2022 with a vengeance. As part of my 2022 goals, I'm going to spend at least 2 hours per week on personal development. This will likely come in the form of podcasts, audio books and courses. I think it's important for me to take notes during this process so try to retain as much information as possible. For books, it will likely be a short summary in my own words then a summary based on Internet notes of key points. A lot of time I listen while driving / walking so taking notes isn't exactly an option, so summaries will help in this regard.

More 2022 goals:

4) Develop a low effort side business
 - I'll accomplish this by working a minimum of 4 hours per week on a side business. I'm starting with an Amazon FBA course and resulting business. I'm hopeful I can get this rolling in 2022.

5) Continue to grow as a person
 - I'll accomplish this by spending 2 hours per week doing personal development. This will be active listening, courses, reading stuff I normally wouldn't read, etc...

6) Improve as a writer
 - I'll accomplish this by writing 250 words a day. 2 for 2 so far...

I'll save the last 2 for tomorrow.
