Need to Improve

So I was surfing the web reading blogs, learning tips and hints on UX design, getting impressed with other people's portfolio , and starting to realize that I am nowhere close to where I want to be right now. Granted, I have a pretty good job and respected here at work, but I still feel there are so much more I need to learn out there to improve my skill sets. I was also getting overwhelmed with the fact that there are so much information I have to absorb in daily basis on top of my busy school loads. So somethings I need to improve upon.

• Writing skills
• Speech
• More real practices with users
• Documentation skills
• Information Architecture
  

I need to go home and read the information architecture Polarbear book one more time. Share
