My Ten Wobbly New Year’s Resolutions

By Agoge

1. Be relevant.

2. Be an organizer. Never stop trying to learn what that truly means.

3. Be active in a serious campaign. Always.

4. Be social: Get off Facebook.

5. Be a trainer, writer, “GRIL”er, coordinator, protestor… less. Communicate and

interact with, and be accountable to, an actual shop floor… more.

6. Be a mentor embedded in active trenches, not a teacher with a red card and red

cred.

7. Be a mentee that is goal oriented. Connect with a mentor and start small and

smart.

8. Be more efficient and selective with priorities and resources. Evaluate, reflect,

and reassess methods with an organizing partner and/or committee.

9. Be a higher bar and expect it from everyone going forward.

10. Be a fighter not a member.
