Before I decide which ideas to actually follow up, I've brainstormed some of my initial ideas. Then I'll choose the ones that are most relevant to the areas of practice I want to focus on, and the ones that I think I'll get the most out of by completing. I want to learn new things and this will be my last chance to do what I want to do, before I work for others and just do what they want me to!
