So I have to admit to a little confusion here, are we writing about reflective practice or actually reflecting?
To me reflective practice is becoming a greater part of my role at work due to the competencies framework, I personally like this as I now find it easier to identify any training needs which, coincidentally, is how I began 23 Things, I tend to lean more towards Kolb's model (see picutre below). I think like most things reflective practice is something which gets easier the more you do it, assuming you can find enough time to dedicate to it, otherwise it appears as a massive mountain to climb but never conquering!

As for the actual reflecting...
I am finding this style of learning to be particularly interesting, previously a lot of my learning has been attending a course where I sit with a group of people, people who have often been told this must attend this course and therefore have no enthusiasm for it, and sitting in a room for 3-8 hours taking notes or participating in group activities. However, I like having a new task each week, I like having to write about my experiences (the reflection is built in!) and being able to share experiences, although I do find it odd that I don't know who's reading my blog and I have not necessarily met the persons blog I am reading. Overall, this method of delivery is very much working for me :)
