  • Learn to be proactive vs reactive as my project at work winds down
  • Hatha Yoga with emphasis on the tree pose, vriksha-asana, for balancing

    • Weight training
    • Walking
    • More stable sleep time (weakest of the four health changes)

  • AYE 2006
  • Writing
  • Drawing
  • Transform survival rules into guides

2006 Results

  • By changing my nutrition and my eating habits I have lost 3" off my waist (but talk is cheap. 2006 through 2007 will be the true results of how my health improves. However I have made myself accountable to friends who are doing the same thing, so the odds are improved substantially)
  • More will be revealed

2005
  • Hatha Yoga
  • Aikido
  • Visit NYC for the first time
  • Writer's Workshop
  • AYE 2005
  • Joyce's Ulysses
  • Proust's In Search of Lost Time

2005 Results

  • I was amazed at NYC, New Yorkers can indeed call their city "The Big Apple." Also, the population of Nebraska wouldn't even fill one of the Big Apple's boroughs.
  • Only part way through Ulysses
  • Did not Start In Search of Lost Time
  • Hatha Yoga seems to be a keeper, my third year this time, for a total of 8 years.
  • Aikido dropped due to inner ear problem :-(
  • AYE 2005 touched some of my survival rules
