About three weeks into the new year is when resolutions start to dissipate. The incline of renewed energy and determination start to plateau and we often feel wretched about ourselves. When going to the gym, reading a book every week, or organizing the closet seem like too much to handle, turn to LinkedIn Learning to garner a new skill! Delve into courses ranging from software to photography from the comfort of your own home. Each course is divided into sections so it is easy to go back and review parts that were difficult to understand. As with every new skill or resolution set, baby steps and deep breaths are essential.
