Lose weight, and actually keep it off this time. I lost about 70lbs a couple years ago, but then I went and gained 30lbs back. Going to try to remove that, then not gain any back. On the tech side, maybe go deeper into python.

  What weight loss approach did you use/are planning to use?

  Here's a tip. Reduce the size of you service plates and never eat out of the food container. If you want more just serve yourself more. Don't fall into the fallacy that you'll save some effort by serving yourself more. We tend to eat what we see even if we are not hungry. Good luck.

Do fewer things. - learn fewer programming languages/frameworks (winner F#) - work on fewer side-projects (limit 2?) - consume less HN [Non-top priorities = avoid at all costs list -- Warren Buffett] Do a few new things. - invest money (not just time) in side-projects (get serious) - be more social - more physical activity - (already started) minimal animal protein diet for health - (already started) practice playing bass

Stop drinking. Specifically binge drinking. Everything else will fall into place after that I think.
- WheelsAtLarge 7y ago
  Here's a tip. Don't drink alone. And get out of a situation where you might start to binge drink. Don't trust yourself into controlling yourself.

    Thanks. And nope, I almost never drank alone. Only when it's a "big night out" with a few friends is when it happens. And a few turns into a lot. So I think I will just not even start when I go out now.
