Primero quiso ser bailarina, después bibliotecaria, finalmente escritora, una escritora que entiende su oficio como el arte de distinguir constelaciones en el cielo nocturno. En esta entrevista a Rebecca Solnit realizada por Manuel Vicuña, la ensayista y activista estadounidense nos invita a tomar riesgos y a forjar relatos que, en vez de aprisionarnos, nos liberen del pesimismo que nos paraliza ante el cambio climático y nos obliga a conformarnos con costumbres y creencias que hacen daño. Autora feminista y defensora de la función política de la esperanza, Solnit también se toma el tiempo para hablar de la cocina de su escritura, de su manera de entender la literatura de no-ficción, y del placer de extraviarse en los paisajes de la conciencia.

El nuevo libro de Helen Sword (2023)

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
Writing should be a pleasurable challenge, not a painful chore. Writing with Pleasure empowers academic, professional, and creative writers to reframe their negative emotions about writing and reclaim their positive ones. By learning how to cast light on the shadows, you will soon find yourself bringing passion and pleasure to everything you write.

Acclaimed international writing expert Helen Sword invites you to step into your "WriteSPACE"-a space of pleasurable writing that is socially balanced, physically engaged, aesthetically nourishing, creatively challenging, and emotionally uplifting. Sword weaves together cutting-edge findings in the sciences and social sciences with compelling narratives gathered from nearly six hundred faculty members and graduate students from across the disciplines and around the world. She provides research-based principles, hands-on strategies, and creative "pleasure prompts" designed to help you ramp up your productivity and enhance the personal rewards of your writing practice. Whether you're writing a scholarly article, an administrative email, or a love letter, this book will inspire you to find delight in even the most mundane writing tasks and a richer, deeper pleasure in those you already enjoy.

Exuberantly illustrated by prizewinning graphic memoirist Selina Tusitala Marsh, Writing with Pleasure is an indispensable resource for academics, students, professionals, and anyone for whom writing has come to feel like a burden rather than a joy.

"Intrinsic motivations like joy and fascination can and should propel our writing-all the more so when extrinsic rewards seem few. In this generous, generative book, Helen Sword offers us ample encouragement and insight on how, even in difficult times, we can dare to seek delight."-Margy Thomas, founder of ScholarShape

"At last, a writing guide that doesn't scold or ridicule, but treats the challenge of writing well as a form of pleasurable mastery."-Steven Pinker, Johnstone Professor of Psychology, Harvard University, author of The Sense of Style: The Thinking Person's Guide to Writing in the 21st Century

"Sword is the prophetic voice crying out in academia's wilderness: 'Write with pleasure! It can be done! Come and see!' Through enviable prose, enticing poems, and elegant illustrations, readers see the pleasure, feel it, apply it to their own writing and, when all is read and done, cannot resist repenting."-Patricia Goodson, Texas A&M University

"Helen Sword has been helping me improve my writing for more than a decade. In Writing with Pleasure, she finally taught me how to love it-and keep loving it. If you want to make writing a painless habit, this book is for you."-Inger Mewburn, Australian National University

" Writing with Pleasure -itself a pleasure in the reading-opens exciting vistas onto the great expanse of writing: the aesthetics in the written, the corporeality of the writer, the emotions felt for and from writing. This original and inventive book charts new territory for anyone who writes and for everyone who researches writing."-Daniel Shea, Karlsruhe Institute of Technology, Germany

This book helps academic writers gain control over writing and publishing, master specific aspects of academic writing, and improve their productivity. Patricia Goodson offers weekly exercises and tools to achieve these goals. The exercises are theoretically-grounded and empirically-based, comprising a set of behavioral principles (e.g., writing regularly, separating generating from editing) and specific practices (weekly exercises) which ensure success. The author draws on research on writing and productivity in college settings, together with insights into the practice patterns of elite performers (such as Olympic athletes), to develop a set of key principles. This book uniquely combines these successful principles with a set of original exercises applicable to the writing needs of college professors and students.

Finishing a PhD is a difficult and nerve-racking endeavour - especially the final phases can be quite stressful. I contacted a range of different proofreading services. The PhD Proofreaders stood out to me from the start. It felt very personal, and Max really took the time to listen to all of my enquiries. In addition to his expertise, he can empathise with the stress of handling the final stages of writing. Turnaround time was very quick, and the proofreading was generally quite thorough. The entire process was very smooth. Even after sending me his comments, he checked in regularly to see if I needed help with anything. He is encouraging, always goes the extra mile, and super easy to communicate with. All in all, it was well worth the money and I highly recommend his services!

Una nota de Mark Manson, en su estilo, que invita a pensar en el desarrollo de habilidades más que de resoluciones o metas: "Instead of thinking about what you want to achieve in the new year, ask yourself, “What do I want to be good at that I’m not?”

Then get to work at it."

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
Welcome to the first Monday of the new year. It's 2022 and if you're like me, it still feels like 2019 was last year. Talk about a mindfuck.

This is that time of year where most productive and growth-minded people sit down and focus on their goals, their identity, and who they want to be in the fucking world. Maybe you like to set some goals, create a list, check it twice... then, like most people, quit the gym membership in February and go back to exactly what you did the year before.

I've written quite a bit about goals and new year's resolutions in the past. Unlike most personal growth rituals, I've always refrained from shitting on New Year's resolutions because I do believe there is something psychologically significant about year changes. We divide our lives into years, conceptualize our identities in years, so it makes sense that a turning of the year will coincide with some introspection and realignment of one's values.

Instead, what I usually do is just talk shit about goals. How they can backfire. How they are often short-sighted and set for the wrong reasons.

But I've done that for plenty of years and you can go read that on the website.

Instead, this year, I'd like to talk about something adjacent to goals but arguably far more important: skills.

Because every year, everyone talks about losing ten pounds or changing jobs or getting a raise. They talk about motivation and identity and belief and persistence and all that crap.

But nobody talks about the skills required to do it.

And I don't mean, "How to lift a barbell" skill. I mean far more subtle skills.

I mean the, "I get out of bed even when I don't feel like it" skill. Because: yes, that is a skill. It's something you can practice and get better at or forget if you stop doing it.

There's the, "Saying no to dessert" skill, which is directly related to the, "staring angrily while other people eat dessert in front of you," skill. This is a skill that I'm happy to report that after being an amateur at it for most of my life, I'm getting close to turning pro.

You can set goals for finding a relationship. But few people think about adopting and learning a new relationship skill. People say, "I want to meet someone special this year." No one says, "I want to get better at connecting with others," or "I want to learn how to be more vulnerable and own my flaws."

These, too, are skills. They are something you develop with time, that you gain through experience, that you can consciously practice and attempt to foster within yourself.

So, my question to you is: What skills do you want to develop this year?

Not, "Who do you want to be in 2022?"

...but "What the fuck are you doing in 2022?"

What are you improving at? What are you learning and gaining? Instead of thinking about what you want to achieve in the new year, ask yourself, "What do I want to be good at that I'm not?"

Then get to work at it.

And the beauty of focusing on skills is that it's never done. The old cliché is that we all set goals in January and give up on them by February. But if you focus on a skill, no matter how bad you are at it, you can still work on it in February, and March, on through the year.

La obra y la rutina creativa de los escritores a través de diez documentales imperdibles

La obra y la rutina creativa de los escritores a través de diez documentales imperdibles

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
De las anécdotas que signaron los comienzos a los secretos que edificaron la trama de la obra, con consejos para quienes recién empiezan a escribir pero también con la reconstrucción en primera persona de aquello que creen que fue central para su carrera, los documentales y miniseries que cuentan la vida y la trayectoria de escritores invitan desde las plataformas y la web a conocer el detrás de escena de la literatura a través de una selección diversa que por estos días permite aproximarse a la trastienda de autores como Juan Carlos Onetti, Alejandra Pizarnik, Diana Bellessi o Joan Didion.

Netflix y HBO, pero también Vimeo, Youtube y Canal Encuentro ofrecen producciones audiovisuales que seducen al espectador con la posibilidad de indagar en la figura siempre compleja de los escritores, apoyados en testimonios pero también en interpretaciones que permiten abordar la obra desde ópticas disímiles y creativas.

La muerte de la escritora y periodista norteamericana Joan Didion en la última semana de diciembre convocó a muchos de sus lectores conmovidos por su muerte y también a quienes tras la noticia sintieron la curiosidad de conocerla, a ver "Joan Didion: El centro cede", el documental de 2017 dirigido por Griffin Dunne, disponible en Netflix.

La producción retrata en toda su complejidad a "la poeta del gran vacío californiano", como la definió el escritor Martin Amis. En primera persona, la escritora -que logró con sensibilidad y agudeza contar algo tan íntimo y a la vez universal como el dolor del duelo- reflexiona sobre su carrera literaria y su agitada vida personal en el documental íntimo que filmó su sobrino. La autora repasa, uno por uno, libros como "Río revuelto", "Democracia", "Según venga el juego", "El año del pensamiento mágico" y "Noches azules". Pero también da cuenta de cómo ejerció el periodismo en tramos de entrevistas con Annie Leibovitz, Patti Smith, Michelle Williams y Liam Neeson.

También en Netflix se puede ver "Gabo, la magia de lo real", un documental de 2015 que indaga en el origen del escritor colombiano Gabriel García Márquez y relata su infancia pobre en un pequeño pueblo del norte de su país. El film, dirigido por el británico Justin Webster y con testimonios de dos de sus lectores-amigos Fidel Castro y Bill Clinton, muestra cómo fue que el autor de "Cien años de Soledad" ganó el Premio Nobel de Literatura y se convirtió en un escritor de renombre internacional. "¿Este es el momento más importante de su vida?", le pregunta un periodista después de ganar el Nobel. Gabo responde: "No. El momento más importante de mi vida fue cuando nací". Minutos después, el autor de Aracataca responde sin reparos: "Ganar el Premio Nobel fue poder dedicarme por fin a escribir sin que nadie me jodiera". Sobre el final, consultado sobre qué conviene hacer para evitar la muerte, enuncia una fórmula infalible: "Escribir mucho".

A los pocos días de que Netflix pusiera online "Supongamos que Nueva York es una ciudad", la miniserie ya era un fenómeno de visualizaciones y había cultivado a los espectadores que multiplicaban las frases y anécdotas. Fran Lebowitz y Martin Scorsese comparten el fotograma para que la escritora y humorista, inteligente y ácida, dé rienda suelta a su elocuencia. Y si bien Lebowitz recorre su biografía, comparte el protagonismo con el director de "Taxi driver" y "El irlandés" y con Nueva York.

Con 7 episodios de 30 minutos, intercala material de archivo con el presente en los que la autora de libros como "Breve manual de urbanidad" y "Vida metropolitana" charla con su coequiper o recorre los lugares que más detesta de Nueva York porque añora la Gran Manzana de los años 70.

El formato audiovisual, por su narrativa y por su capacidad para articular testimonios y material de archivo, también permite dar cuenta de cómo nace y se desarrolla un fenómeno editorial. "Un fenómeno llamado Elena Ferrante", del director italiano Giacomo Durzi, indaga a través de testimonios de autores como Roberto Saviano o Jonathan Franzen en cierta paradoja: una de las escritoras más populares de nuestro tiempo decidió permanecer en el anonimato. El documental empieza con un fragmento en off de una entrevista a Hillary Clinton en el que confiesa que ha estado absolutamente obnubilada por la "Tetralogía Napolitana" de Ferrante, a la que califica como "hipnótica" y dice que no podía dejar de leerla. El documental orbita alrededor de la expresión "fiebre Ferrante" para capturar la esencia de un fenómeno literario cuya popularidad se propaga con la magia y el misterio que esconde un pseudónimo.

"Arthur Miller. Escritor", disponible en HBO, se estrenó en 2018 y recorre la vida de uno de los grandes escritores y dramaturgos norteamericano de la mano de su hija, la cineasta Rebecca Miller. Con un recorrido de registro íntimo que se alimenta de entrevistas, fotografías privadas, cartas y recortes de diario, ella muestra al Miller padre, al escritor comprometido y a la figura pública que osciló entre las polémicas y la relación amorosa con Marilyn Monroe. Ese entramado devela sus raíces como artista y cómo los principales eventos del siglo XX moldearon su vida en el plano personal y político.

La literatura latinoamericana también encuentra en el formato audiovisual una forma de dar cuenta de su riqueza y complejidad. "Jamás leí a Onetti" de Pablo Dotta, una coproducción entre España y Uruguay, puede verse en Youtube

La violinista María Dorothea Muhr, quien fue su compañera, y el escritor Eduardo Galeano cuentan anécdotas mientras el cantautor Fernanda Cabrera -responsable de la música junto a Jorge Drexler- analiza frente a la cámara cómo la figura de Onetti marcó a los creadores uruguayos.

En la película también se descubren algunos manuscritos en birome del autor de "El astillero". Allí está la última nota -una suerte de despedida- que escribió en 27 de marzo de 1993, un año antes de morir: "Tal vez mi sensación luctuosa nazca del hecho de que al escribir las últimas palabras de mis libros experimenté siempre una sensación de adiós. Que se las arreglen, nunca los leeré, ni corregiré pruebas de imprenta".

El documentalista Andrés Di Tella es el autor de "327 cuadernos", película basada en la lectura de los diarios del escritor Ricardo Piglia, que murió en 2017. El espectador del documental -que puede verse en https://vimeo.com/ondemand/327cuadernos y que se estrenó en 2015, en simultáneo en la TV Pública y el cine- accede a la intimidad de alguien que está procesando su vida.

La película debe su nombre a los 327 diarios del autor, que empezó a escribir durante su adolescencia y que se publicaron en tres libros como "Los diarios de Emilio Renzi". "Se podría decir que es más una fábula que un documental y que Ricardo es el símbolo de alguien que está viendo qué sentido puede darle a su pasado. Esos cuadernos son una reencarnación de ese pasado. Todos reprocesamos el pasado y tratamos de armar un relato con los pedazos sueltos porque necesitamos que la vida tenga un sentido a través de esos recuerdos", explicó Di Tella.

Piglia, que desde el comienzo del filme anuncia que "no hay nada más ridículo que la pretensión de retratar la propia vida", le abre las puertas de su vida a Di Tella y comparte con él sus recuerdos más íntimos, desde que su padre -que estuvo preso en 1955 por defender a Perón- decidió escapar con su familia desde Adrogué hacia Mar del Plata, hasta que se le declara una enfermedad neurológica que lo sigue aquejando y le impide escribir.

"El jardín secreto", fue realizado en 2012 por Cristian Costantini, Diego Panich y Claudia Prado.

La poeta Diana Bellessi comparte con el espectador un recorrido por algunos de los escenarios más importantes de su vida: el patio de su casa porteña y las calles de Palermo; los rincones y personas queridas de su pueblo natal, Zavalla, y la casa en una isla en el Delta, la zona donde se refugió durante la dictadura y adonde acude para escapar de la ciudad y escribir. Sus grandes pasiones: la escritura y las plantas.

En 2013, Virna Molina y Ernesto Ardito filmaron "Alejandra", disponible en ​​https://vimeo.com/ondemand/alejandra, un documental donde cruzan vida y obra, tradición e innovación para contar la vida trágica de Pizarnik. La adolescencia difícil, el amor, la soledad quedan reflejados en el documental. La ensayista Ivonne Bordelois cuenta que su figura se acerca a la de Franz Kafka y detalles íntimos que dan dimensión de la figura de la poeta: no podía hacer cosas simples como pagar las cuentas o resolver un trámite porque sentían que le podían arruinar la vida.

Desde su lanzamiento, Encuentro dedica parte de su programación a dar cuenta de la creación literaria nacional y de la región. "Bodoc, memorias de una maga", disponible en http://encuentro.gob.ar/programas/serie/9968#top-video, reúne reflexiones de la escritora y poeta santafesina, que murió en 2018. En el año 2000 y a sus cuarenta años publicó su primera novela "Los días del Venado", que sería parte de la trilogía "La Saga de los confines" por la que recibió premios y distinciones

Bodoc fue reconocida como la revelación argentina en el género de la literatura fantástica: combinó la épica con la historia de las culturas americanas desde una particular y apasionada visión. "La muerte está presente en mi literatura porque está presente en la vida, no hay la una sin la otra. Hay una sola manera de hacernos eternos: amar. Hay que sentirse parte del todo y entender la muerte como una transformación. Me voy, pero vuelvo en las palabras, vuelvo en la literatura", promete la escritora, eterna, desde la pantalla.

De las anécdotas que signaron los comienzos a los secretos que edificaron la trama de la obra, con consejos para quienes recién empiezan a escribir pero también con la reconstrucción en primera persona de aquello que creen que fue central para su carrera, los documentales y miniseries que cuentan la vida y la trayectoria de escritores invitan desde las plataformas y la web a conocer el detrás de escena de la literatura a través de una selección diversa que por estos días permite aproximarse a la trastienda de autores como Juan Carlos Onetti, Alejandra Pizarnik, Diana Bellessi o Joan Didion.

If you find yourself wishing your students would write more thoughtful papers or think more deeply about the issues in your course, this handout may help you. At the Writing Center, we work one-on-one with thousands of student writers and find that giving them targeted writing tasks or exercises encourages them to problem-solve, generate, and communicate more fully on the page. You'll find targeted exercises here and ways to adapt them for use in your course or with particular students.

Writing requires making choices. We can help students most by teaching them how to see and make choices when working with ideas. We can introduce students to a process of generating and sorting ideas by teaching them how to use exercises to build ideas. With an understanding of how to discover and arrange ideas, they will have more success in getting their ideas onto the page in clear prose.

Through critical thinking exercises, students move from a vague or felt sense about course material to a place where they can make explicit the choices about how words represent their ideas and how they might best arrange them. While some students may not recognize some of these activities as "writing," they may see that doing this work will help them do the thinking that leads to easier, stronger papers.

Exercises

Brainstorming

In order to write a paper for a class, students need ways to move from the received knowledge of the course material to some separate, more synthesized or analyzed understanding of the course material. For some students this begins to happen internally or through what we call "thinking," unvoiced mulling, sorting, comparing, speculating, applying, etc. that leads them to new perspectives, understanding, questions, reactions about the course material. This thinking is often furthered through class discussion and some students automatically, internally move from these initial sortings of ideas into complex, logical interpretations of material at this point. But, for more students, their thinking will remain an unorganized, vague set of ideas referring to the subject. Many will have trouble moving beyond this vague sense or simple reaction toward ideas that are more processed, complex, or what we often call "deep." We can foster that move to a deeper understanding by providing opportunities to externalize and fix their ideas on paper so that they may both see their ideas and then begin to see the relationships between them. The following activities will help students both generate and clarify initial responses to course material:

Organizing

Once students have something on the page to work with, they can begin the decision-making process crucial to developing a coherent idea or argument. At this point, students will choose which ideas most appeal to them, which ideas seem to fit together, which ideas need to be set aside, and which ideas need further exploration. The following activities will help students make decisions as they shape ideas:

Drafting

As students have been working with their ideas, they have been making a series of choices about their ideas that will lead them to feel "ready" to put them in a more complete, coherent form; they will feel "ready to write" their ideas in something closer to the assignment or paper form. But for most, the tough moments of really "writing" begin at this point. They may still feel that they "have ideas" but have trouble "getting them on the page." Some will suddenly be thrust into "writing a paper" mode and be both constrained and guided by their assumptions about what an assignment asks them to do, what academic writing is, and what prior experience has taught them about writing for teachers. These exercises may ease their entry into shaping their ideas for an assignment:

Revising

As students use language to shape ideas, they begin to feel the need to test their ideas or move beyond their own perspectives. Sometimes we have ideas that make good sense to us, but seem to lose or confuse readers as we voice them in conversation or on the page. Once students have a complete draft of a paper, they need ways to share their ideas to learn points where their ideas need further development. With feedback from an audience, students are better able to see the final decisions they still need to make in order for their ideas to reach someone. These decisions may be ones of word choice, organization, logic, evidence, and tone. Keep in mind that this juncture can be unsettling for some students. Having made lots of major decisions in getting their ideas down on the page, they may be reluctant to tackle another round of decision-making required for revising or clarifying ideas or sentences. Remind students that ideas don't exist apart from words, but in the words themselves. They will need to be able to sell their ideas through the words and arrangement of words on the page for a specific audience.

Implementing exercises

Many of these exercises can be used in short in-class writing assignments, as part of group work, or as incremental steps in producing a paper. If you've assigned an end-of-semester term paper, you may want to assign one or two activities from each of the four stages-brainstorming, organizing, drafting, editing-at strategic points throughout the semester. You could also give the students the list of exercises for each stage and ask them to choose one or two activities to complete at each point as they produce a draft.

If you'd like to discuss how these exercises might work in your course, talk about other aspects of student writing, contact Kimberly Abels kabels@email.unc.edu at the Writing Center.

I am an Associate Professor with the Methods Lab at the Facultad Latinoamericana de Ciencias Sociales (FLACSO) Sede Mexico. My research is interdisciplinary by nature, although I consider myself more of a political scientist and geographer, as those are the two major fields I studied during my doctorate. My research lies at the intersection of space, public policy, environment and society. I am primarily interested in understanding the factors that contribute to (or hinder) cooperation in natural resource governance. While my major focus has been sanitation, wastewater and pollution control, I am also interested in solid and hazardous waste management and urban/industrial restructuring. I use a broad range of theoretical approaches, cross disciplinary boundaries and apply multiple methods.

From July 2012 to July 2020 I was Assistant Professor in the Public Administration Division of the Centre for Economic Research and Teaching, CIDE (Centro de Investigacion y Docencia Economicas, CIDE, AC) based out of CIDE Region Centro in Aguascalientes, Mexico, where I am now affiliate faculty (and still teach some courses). I am now affiliate faculty, and from 2006 until 2012 I was a Lecturer in the Department of Political Science at The University of British Columbia and affiliated faculty in the Latin American Studies Program at UBC . From January 2010 until February 2011, I also held the position of Regional Director, Western Canada, for the Canadian Institute for Environmental Law and Policy ( CIELAP) while also being CIELAP's Lead Researcher on Water and Climate Change.

I have been Editor for the Americas of the International Journal of Qualitative Methods, I'm Associate Editor of the Journal of Environmental Sciences and Studies, Assistant Editor of Policy Design and Practice, and I sit on the editorial boards of Policy & Politics, Canadian Journal of Political Science, Global Environmental Politics, Water International; Politics, Groups and Identities; Administrative Theory & Praxis; Journal of Environmental Sciences and Studies, Case Studies on the Environment, Environment and Planning C: Politics and Space, International Studies Review, and the Journal of Environmental Policy and Planning. I am also a National Researcher (Level 1) in Mexico's National Researchers System ( Sistema Nacional de Investigadores, SNI) of the National Council for Science and Technology (Consejo Nacional de Ciencia y Tecnología, CONACyT). I'm also a member of the Evidence in Governance and Politics network of researchers and practitioners and I sit on the Steering Committee of the Household Water Insecurity Research Coordination Network (HWISE-RCN).

My previous research projects have focused on wastewater governance, comparative environmental policy in North America, industrial restructuring, urban sustainability and environmental NGO mobilizations. You can read more about my research interests here. My current projects include a study of the global politics of sanitation, an analysis of intractable water conflicts in Mexico, an investigation of polycentricity theory (advancing the work done by the late Elinor Ostrom and Vincent Ostrom), and its applicability to Mexican water governance, a global study on the politics of privatization and remunicipalization of water supply, a project on the role of transnational private and non-state actors in North American environmental governance and a study of informal waste picking in Latin America.

I am a member of the Consultative Group for the North American Commission for Environmental Cooperation (NACEC)' North American Pollutant Release and Transfer Registry and have been a participant in the Canadian National Water Strategy Meetings.

My research and teaching interests include environmental politics, public policy, water governance, solid waste management, urban and economic geography and comparative and global environmental politics. You can read more about my current projects here. My geographical areas of expertise and focus are within North America (Canada, US, Mexico) although in recent years I have gained an interest in Latin America (Mexico, Brazil, Ecuador, Bolivia, Chile). I consider myself a comparativist and my methodological tools include quantitative and qualitative methods, as well as some expertise in geographical information systems (GIS), and more recently, field experiments (particularly persuasion). I undertake research that is broad and interdisciplinary in theoretical frameworks, with a strong foundation in empirical research methods and a policy-oriented approach to environmental problem-solving.

I am passionate about undertaking applied, empirical work from which we can draw theoretical insights that advance our understanding of global environmental governance. My goal is to contribute to societal welfare through my scholarship. I am an ardent advocate of Open Access and you can access and read many of my scholarly publications through my Academia.Edu page.

I am also an enthusiast of social media in academia. I promote the #ScholarSunday and #MyResearch hashtags on Twitter. On the personal side of things, I am the proud uncle of nine nieces and nephews, a former competitive volleyball player and dancer. In my non-existent spare time, I enjoy volunteering for literacy programs for adults, mental health advocacy and queer youth support programmes.

The dictionary definitions of contribution are:

1. A gift or payment

2. The part played by a person or thing in bringing about a result or helping something to advance and

3. A piece of writing submitted for publication in a journal or book

When scholars talk about contribution it might be 3. A contribution might be a piece we have submitted to an edited collection, a text book, an anthology of cases or an encyclopaedia.

But the most usual scholarly formulation of contribution is as a "contribution to knowledge".

Contribution to knowledge is an apparently simple idea, but in reality it's pretty slippery. So here's few thoughts about how to make sense of it, just to start with.

A contribution to knowledge is more like dictionary definition 2. Your research and/or writing helps to advance understandings about a topic. People know a little or a lot more about a topic because they've engaged with your work, read what you've written. And you've been able to explain to readers that the work adds up to a contribution - it takes the field somewhere - through

a defensible and well-designed inquiry, investigation, exploration, interrogation, deconstruction, experimentation, testing out, bringing things together that were previously apart and so on

a thorough analysis which is explained and available for scrutiny

the development of a credible and clearly ordered argument that explains the results, which leads to

a conclusion about the specific place of the results within the existing research on the topic - and how it complements, contradicts, adds something new, challenges, questions, confirms, reframes etc what is already known.

pointers for further development in policy or practice or further research.

In English language/Western traditions of research your readers/examiners/reviewers expect you to spell the contribution out to them in detail. ( This is not always the case in other cultural traditions.)

Readers/examiners/reviewers always expect to see the particulars of where the research fits and sits in relation to published literatures. In some disciplines, there is also a strong expectation that you'll make connections to policy and professional practice.

And, justifying and explaining your contribution in relation to the field and extant literatures may well be an integral part of your viva or defense.

That's not all to contribution of course. Most university guidelines still refer to contribution as 'original'. Original doesn't mean that it hasn't been done before; in some disciplines re-doing what has been done before is very important. And original in the context of contribution doesn't mean that the researcher has made a ground-breaking discovery - although that is very occasionally the case. Nor does original mean that the research is all your own work, although that is always a requirement and, perhaps in the light of AI, this meaning of original will come to matter much more .

No, what is meant by original is very clearly definition 2. Your research has taken you somewhere new. At the end of your research you know much more about your topic than you did at the start. Even if some if it is what not to do or think.

But the research also takes the field somewhere, it sets a line of thinking or does more to an established line of thinking, it offers well argued and evidenced results which others can build on.

And this is of course how contribution relates to significance. The field won't move forward and/or no one will bother with the research if it isn't of some value. A contribution generally isn't just something that wasn't there before (ie it fills a gap) but something that, like a contribution to a conversation, supports thinking and talking in the field to go somewhere.

In this sense, an original contribution is also definition 1. A gift. A gift to the scholarly community which colleagues can use to help build their own contribution. A (re)payment for the work of others that you used to build your own. A down payment on the work of others you will use in the future.

Making a contribution to knowledge is the essence of what scholarship is about. Taking a field and its thinking forward, even if only a little.

Este texto nos entrega una manera para entender y trazar nuestras metas, combinando tareas específicas con metas generales.
"So we’ve learned that we should ground our external, specific goals with internal goals that reflect our values. We’ve learned that we should break down difficult, long-term goals into more attainable micro-goals. And we’ve learned that our goals should be ambitious but not so ambitious that they seem unattainable. (...) So, how would you create these goals from scratch? Easy. The process would look like this[:]"

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
Back in 2010, I set a bold goal for myself. I took one of my websites and decided that I wanted to publish over 100 articles on it that year. I decided that by doing this, my goal was to accumulate more than a million readers by the end of the year.

To do this, I decided to take what, at the time, had been a modestly successful blog, and turn it into a kind of men's magazine for millennials. I found half a dozen people to write articles for me. I redesigned the site. I created a pipeline of content that would feed directly through me and be posted every other day. In my mind, I was building the foundations of my empire, a new brand to appeal to the sensibilities of the young, internet-savvy male.

It didn't even take three months for me to shut the whole project down. I deleted half of the new content written by others. I reverted the website back to the old blog. And I continued publishing at a meager pace.

Most would look at my abandonment of my goals that year as an unmitigated failure. But I look back and see that as one of the most valuable goals I ever set for myself. I will explain why later in this piece.

There are a million articles on the internet about how to set goals and how to achieve them. And sure, I will cover some of that here.

But I want to propose something far more subtle yet far more important: Often the strategic failure of our goals can be far more valuable than their achievement.

Most people see goals as golf balls that you tee up and whack the shit out of, hoping to hit your mark. But goals are far more complicated than that. Sometimes it can be advantageous to set goals you know you are unlikely to achieve. Sometimes it is better to give up or change goals midstream. Sometimes it's actually better to have no goals at all.

This article will break down the complexities of goal setting-when to set them, how to set them, and how to know when to give them up.

But it's important to understand exactly how goals benefit you first.

Specific Goals Are Best for External Pursuits

Probably the most popular way to use goals-and the way you've used them in your own life-is to pursue a specific result.

I want to be an author, so I set a goal to write a book by the end of the year. I want to have financial freedom, so I set a goal to be debt-free by 2022. I want to look good naked, so I set a goal of losing 20 lbs before beach season.

Specific goals act as a sort of GPS for your life. And just like the GPS on your phone needs a specific destination to be useful, external goals really only work when you have a specific outcome in mind.

For example, "save more money" is the goal equivalent of telling your GPS you want to go to California. Where exactly in California do you want to go? San Diego? San Francisco? Yosemite National Park?

No, no, no. You want fried shrimp tacos from Mariscos Jalisco taco truck on Olympic Boulevard in LA (trust me, you do). Now your GPS can tell you exactly how to get there, turn by turn, down to the number of feet until you sidle up to the window and order your three tacos and maybe some ceviche with hot salsa (not too much though-I've warned you).

When you set specific goals, they become measurable and actionable, which then allows you to track your progress. These are sometimes referred to as "SMART Goals." SMART stands for:

So, instead of "save more money," you could say, "save $5,000 by December 12th." Now you know exactly what you need to do. If you start saving on January 1, you have 345 days to save, so that's:

This allows you to know exactly where you're at with your goal throughout the year too. By day 57, you should have $826.50 saved up. By week 18, you should have $1,826.10 in the bank. And by July, you should have $2,916.69 holed away. Any deviation from these benchmarks is an indicator that you should change your approach (or perhaps change your goal-more on that later).

Another benefit of setting specific goals is that they help you focus on the outcomes you want while ignoring all the extraneous distractions you're bound to encounter., It's easy to know what to cut out of your spending when you know exactly how much to save. It's easier to know what foods to cut when you know exactly how much weight you want to lose, and so on. Specific goals, when worked towards, can be a source of energy, motivation, and persistence.

General Goals Are Best for Internal Pursuits

Alright, so throw a fucking parade for specific goals. They got us to the moon, built the pyramids, invented Disneyland. What's not to love about specific goals?

Well, specific goals are great. The problem is that sometimes what we want is not specific.

For example, if I want to be a better writer, how do I actually measure that? Website traffic? Book sales? Glowing emails in my inbox telling me what a Grade A badass I am?

This is where we get into trouble with goals. Because if I decide that "website traffic = being a good writer," well, there are a lot of shady ways to build website traffic that don't involve good writing.

You often see a similar phenomenon with people who set weight loss goals. They lose weight... by doing terribly unhealthy things like starving themselves or living off nothing but pretzels and carrot juice for a year. Sure, the weight comes off. But they're arguably in much worse shape than they began-i.e., their specific goal hurt them rather than helped them.

This is where general goals come into play. It's not enough to simply want to lose 15 pounds, you also want to be a healthy human being. It's not enough to want to sell a bunch of books, you want to sell books because you're a better writer. It's not enough to make a million bucks, you want to make that money in a way that is ethical and sustainable.

General goals like this-be healthier, have more financial freedom, improve at a skill-are in many ways more useful than specific goals because they are endless and internal. You can never finish "being healthy." You can never fully achieve "being a better writer." There's always something you could be doing better.

And it's this endless nature to general goals that keeps us honest and satisfied with specific goals. As we'll see, over-reliance on specific goals can actually harm our mental health. Mixing in general goals can counteract that. Not to mention, they can actually produce even better results.

This shows us that the best goals are the ones that help us enjoy the process instead of focusing too much on the outcome. You need both general and specific goals to do that. You need the specific outcome to get you excited ("I'm going to earn a million dollars!"). But you also need the general goal ("I'm going to become better at my work") to stabilize that specific outcome and keep your self-esteem intact.

Because, if you don't. Well... things can get ugly. And fast.

There's a dark side to goal-setting that is rarely discussed. And if you're not careful, you may succumb to it.

The reason goal setting works so well is that by focusing on one particular pursuit or measurement, you become better at shutting out the things that don't matter or don't help you.

But, like anything in life, you can take this to an extreme. Think of the hotshot lawyer who doesn't recognize her own kids because she's too busy working 90-hour weeks. Or the college student who has no friends because he's obsessively studying all day, every day. Or the guy who tries to climb Mt. Everest on stilts because... well, because it's his goal to climb Mt. Everest on stilts.
When we obsess over our goals, we can easily sacrifice what makes those goals meaningful in the first place.
Not to mention, obsessively pursuing specific goals can encourage people to rely on unethical behaviors. Studies have found that people who focus their energy on specific goals are more likely to lie or cheat to attain them.

There are two pitfalls to watch out for when goal-setting. The first is setting goals that don't align with your values. The second is choosing ineffective goals in the first place. Let's break them down.

Setting Goals That Aren't Aligned With Your Values

One of the biggest traps people fall into is holding onto and pursuing goals that don't serve their core values.

Some people value achievement and self-improvement. Others value their intimate relationships. Others value having an impact on the world or creating communities. It's important to figure out your values before you start setting your goals so you don't screw yourself up.

That might sound obvious, but I've seen people who value their intimate relationships spend most of their time trying to make more money because they somehow think that will lead them to the intimate relationships.

I've seen people who want to make an impact on the world get obsessed with self-improvement and fitness and optimizing everything in their personal lives to the point where they almost forget anything exists outside of themselves.

I've seen people who value independence and autonomy get bogged down in high-paying jobs they hate because they believe the high status they get from their jobs will give them more power to control their time.

And then all of these people wonder how on Earth could they be so miserable? They're doing this goal thing. They're fucking crushing it, accomplishing goals left, right, and center. Yet, somehow everything feels off.

The problem is that the goals they're chasing aren't in line with their values. And this is a recipe for misery.,

The most common reason that we fall for this trap is because we let others dictate our goals to us. We look around and we see people making lots of money or vacationing in Bora Bora or working out three times a day and looking like they auditioned for Baywatch. And we think, "Well, they seem happy, so we should do what they're doing."

It's in this subtle way that we let others choose our goals for us. We try to make more money or we try to go on cool vacations or we try to do a million burpees a week and eat kale-wrapped sea bass dipped in onion water or whatever without thinking about, you know, if we really want any of these things.

Fuck other people's goals. Live out your values.

Setting Goals That Create Worse Outcomes

Another mistake a lot of people make is setting goals that actually make their problems worse, not better.

One amusing example I sometimes come across is when people say something like, "I want to start my own business so I can work at my own hours and not be stressed by a boss."

These people don't stop to consider that it's three times more stressful being the boss. You are responsible for every decision, every failure, every oversight, every error of judgment.

And yes, you get to set your own hours... but when you're working 12 hours a day, there's not a whole lot of options on how you can set them!

Many goals are self-defeating. Like people who buy an expensive car on credit because they want to feel rich. Or someone who dates people they don't like because they want to have a relationship. Or someone who loses weight by starving themselves because they want to be healthier.

The means with which you pursue your goals are often just as important, if not more important, than the goal itself.

If you pursue a goal and accomplish it by torching your entire social life, alienating your family, and destroying your reputation, did you really accomplish anything? I would argue no.

Balancing Specific and General Goals

The kinds of goals we set can have a big impact on how satisfied we are if and when we achieve them.

Focusing exclusively on external, specific goals can make you feel like shit because they are value-neutral. The goal to make lots of money is fine, but that goal doesn't explain why you're trying to make money. Therefore, any happiness you gain from it will be short-lived.

That's why we need to balance out external, specific goals with internal, general goals. Your external goal could be, "I want to have a six-figure income." The internal goal could be, "Because I want to have financial freedom and not feel stressed about money."

Now your external goal is oriented in a value (freedom) and you've set up guard rails for yourself in pursuing it-i.e., you won't pursue a six-figure income in a way that creates less freedom for yourself.

I think one reason we focus so much on external goals is because they are easy to measure. A supposedly golden rule of goal setting is being able to measure progress towards your goal as precisely as possible. But it turns out the goals that are easiest to measure-external goals-are often the ones that bring us the least satisfaction.

It's easy to see whether or not you hit your financial goals. Just look at your bank account. It's easy to see whether or not you hit your fitness goals. Just look at the scale and your workout history.

But it's a lot harder to track your progress towards autonomy, non-judgement, and finding a sense of community. And yet, these are the types of goals that we're more likely to stick to and the ones that bring us a lot more satisfaction.

Balancing Difficult Goals With Easy Goals

Similar to the way that our external goals need to be balanced by internal goals, our incredibly difficult and ambitious goals need to be balanced with simpler, smaller goals.

There's a bit of a Goldilocks phenomenon with goal setting in that if we choose a goal that's way too difficult or improbable ("I want to visit the moons of Jupiter") we will quickly lose motivation because it will feel impossible to make any progress.

On the other hand, if our goals are too small and easy ("do three push ups") our satisfaction will be short-lived and the goal will soon feel meaningless after we've accomplished it.

This is why it's best to take an ambitious goal and then break it down into easier, more attainable chunks.

Years ago, I had an ambitious goal to be a New York Times bestselling author. That was a huge goal that took many years to accomplish. To help me do that, I created a number of smaller, easier "sub-goals" to go along with it:

Build a popular blog based on my writing.

Get a book deal with a publisher.

Write over 100,000 words to be used for a draft.

These goals were also difficult. But each could be accomplished within a year or two. Even with these, I would often break them down into smaller, simpler goals, such as, "Write 1,000 words every day for a month" or "Submit book proposals to ten agents."

Putting It All Together

So we've learned that we should ground our external, specific goals with internal goals that reflect our values. We've learned that we should break down difficult, long-term goals into more attainable micro-goals. And we've learned that our goals should be ambitious but not so ambitious that they seem unattainable.

Putting it all together it would look something like this:

Think of your specific goals as a pyramid with your big, ambitious goal on top, and then all of the sub-goals underneath. In this case, the big ambitious goal is to lose 40 pounds in a year. In order to do that, you will have to work out three times per week and cut out 1,500 calories (these are made up, by the way-I'm not a health professional).

Underneath those goals are even smaller, more easily attainable goals-learn ten healthy recipes, buy a food scale, hire a trainer, etc.

But notice, the pyramid of specific goals is enveloped in a circle of more general, internal goals: "I want to have a healthy lifestyle," "I want to have a positive body self-image," and "I want more energy and stamina."

This way, your goals are oriented by your values (general goals) and are broken down into smaller steps that can keep you motivated over a long period of time.

So, how would you create these goals from scratch? Easy. The process would look like this.

What are things you value that you wish you had more of in your life?

What general goals will help you maximize those values?

Examples: "I want to live a healthy lifestyle," or "I want to attain financial freedom," or "I want to be a good mother."

What is an ambitious, external, specific goal that will help you achieve that general goal?

Examples: "Lose 40 pounds," or "Save up half a million dollars by the time I'm 50," or "Spend at least 10 hours a week doing something enriching with my kids."

What are smaller, easier goals that will make the ambitious goal more attainable?

Examples: "Work out three times a week," or "Save 25% of my paycheck for the next five years," or "Schedule two hours each evening to be with the kids."

Write that shit down. Pin it up somewhere that you can see it regularly. And get to work.

Let's be honest for a second. We are bad at knowing what will make us happy. We are also bad at knowing what is doable and what is not. We're bad at predicting what sacrifices we're willing to make. And we're bad at accurately determining our own abilities.

Therefore, it's safe to say that we're going to be bad at choosing goals that actually serve us.

Sometimes our goals end up being way more effort than they're worth. Sometimes goals we thought would be doable turn out to be impossible. Sometimes we get close to achieving our goals only to discover that we don't enjoy our goals at all.
This is why it's sometimes more valuable to fail at a goal than to succeed-the failure teaches us what we should be pursuing instead.
To go back to my website back in 2010. I failed miserably at growing a men's online website. I essentially transformed my job into that of a magazine editor without realizing that I would hate it. I alienated thousands of readers who only visited the site to read my writing, not others'. I completely altered the business model without realizing it and found that I'd soon have to depend on advertising revenue if I was going to make money (gag me with a fucking soup ladle).

So, I quit.

All my big, ambitious goals for that year, I just pulled the plug. I let all the writers go. I reverted the website back to its blog form. And I started over a few months later as if the whole thing had never happened.

By all accounts, I quit and/or failed every single goal I set for myself at the beginning of that year.
And I was so much better off because of it.
The value of our goals is not in what we accomplish, but in the direction they give us. Goals orient us towards what we'd like in life and give us a little kick in the ass to start moving towards it. But if we discover on the way that actually, we don't want that goal in our life, then we should drop it!

A lot of people get upset about this. They feel like a failure. So what? Failure is normal. Failure is how you learn. Better to fail sooner and pick a better goal now than to spend the next year of your life pursuing something that sucks.

Each year, I set 4-5 goals for myself that year. I then break those large yearly goals into quarterly and then monthly goals.

Generally, by the time I get to June, half of my yearly goals have changed in some way. By the end of the year, I've typically abandoned at least one of the goals because I learned along the way that it wasn't what I wanted. Hell, sometimes I get to August and I come up with new goals entirely.

Abandoning goals that are either unattainable or just not serving you well has all sorts of benefits, like less stress in your life, feeling more competent, fewer health problems and better sleep, and fewer depressive symptoms and more positive feelings.

Remember, goals are just made up markers in your head. No one is grading you. No one is punishing you if you don't hit them. They're only as valuable as the benefits they bring to your life. So if they're not benefiting you, then drop them!

The truth is, we won't know if they're right for us until we try them on. We often don't know what we want until we get it, or try to get it. We often don't know what we value until we try to live out those values.

Goals are just the experiments that help us test these things out. If we realize along the way that a goal isn't serving what we want and what we value, there's no shame in letting go of your goals and finding new ones.

Back in 2010, I set a bold goal for myself. I took one of my websites and decided that I wanted to publish over 100 articles on it that year. I decided that by doing this, my goal was to accumulate more than a million readers by the end of the year.

Publishers often send me academic writing books to review. I happily look through every book, but if I think I can't wholeheartedly recommend it, I just don't write a review. I don't want to crush a fellow author's soul. The rejected titles sit sadly, in small piles of guilt, on the bottom of one of ...continue reading.
