AI Thread Summary
A suggestion was made to create a dedicated section for users to share their life goals, which could enhance community engagement and personal accountability. The idea stems from the belief that writing down goals can aid in achieving them, supported by references to various articles on goal-setting. Participants expressed interest in reading others' goals and sharing their own, with one user humorously noting a personal goal related to beer consumption. There was also a mention that users can already include goals in their profile biographies. Overall, the discussion highlights the value of goal-sharing in fostering motivation and connection within the community.

"My Goals in Life" section

Hello,

I'd like to suggest opening a section where you can write your "goals in life". It could be for example put as an extra link "goals in my life" together with the journals, or if one clicks on a user's name.

The reason is, I'd find it interesting to read what other people's goals are and I also would like to write down mine, because I think that it would help me to reach them if they are written down somehow. I once saw a report on BBC about that, or read here:

http://www.goal-setting-guide.com/goal-writing.html
http://cms.psychologytoday.com/articles/pto-2890.html

Anyone has any opinions on this? Comments are welcome.

That's interesting. I think you can write about your goals in your profile esp. in 'biography' part.
 

Thread 'Thank you to mentors, advisors and members'

I want to thank those members who interacted with me a couple of years ago in two Optics Forum threads. They were @Drakkith, @hutchphd, @Gleb1964, and @KAHR-Alpha. I had something I wanted the scientific community to know and slipped a new idea in against the rules. Thank you also to @berkeman for suggesting paths to meet with academia. Anyway, I finally got a paper on the same matter as discussed in those forum threads, the fat lens model, got it peer-reviewed, and IJRAP...

Thread 'Thank you physics forums, 20 years later'

About 20 years ago, in my mid-30s (and with a BA in economics and a master's in business), I started taking night classes in physics hoping to eventually earn the science degree I'd always wanted but never pursued. I found physics forums and used it to ask questions I was unable to get answered from my textbooks or class lectures. Unfortunately, work and life got in the way and I never got further the freshman courses. Well, here it is 20 years later. I'm in my mid-50s now, and in a...
