All right! New year, fresh start. I’ve really set up for this quite well, I think, with a prior week of reading my first two years of this blog, giving things some thought, consolidating notes (see the “Lessons Learned” link in the main menu), and more.

How to summarize? Thusly:

* Stick to an established morning routine of exercise and food planning* Stick to an established evening routine of instrument practice and self-reflection * Quit bad food using the “quit drinking” model: one day at a time, and just say no rather than trying to moderate * Move to a “practice an instrument and project of the month” approach with minimal other volunteer commitments

Those are the big notes for 2019! My wife is also on board and excited for a big year. Here we go!
