Longest blog post ever. It is about creating healthier #habits and enjoying #life ... with some help of #emacs.

I don’t make resolutions for the new year. But I do make some easily-achievable aims that don’t require much effort or discipline. I don’t even write them down. So I can’t even tell you if I hit all of my aims. All I know is that I did pretty good with last year’s aims that I *did* hit, which was to eat more salads and to try new local restaurants. There were probably others, like getting more sleep, or drinking more water, which I didn’t do so great at.

Welcome to 2025! Think about changing up your transportation habits while you're setting some aspirations for the year ahead. Or even just for one month to test the waters. https://bikestylelife.com/2025/01/01/new-year-ahead/

Yo! Got milk?

My essay 'The Milk in Many Lands,' a contemplation on looking at places through the lens of milk, has been published on @Medium
. Here's the link -

The purpose of a habit is to eliminate the need for constant #self-negotiation.

You establish a habit to automate the #action.

When a habit is repeated frequently, it removes the need for #deliberation.

Making decisions repeatedly leads to decision #fatigue, which drains your valuable daily energy.

All those #habits on top of each other create your life and your future.

Process, not product. It took me ten years to realize that the process I use to achieve my goals is more important than the end result.

Is it really that much of a multitask if you're working on a drawing piece for a friend and when you get tired of doing a certain step, like line art;

you take a break from it by coloring/rendering/drawing another art piece?

I had some friends say it weird, but idk... I thought most artist do that?

I've read we have a national crisis in availability of psychotherapy with long wait lists with health plans such as Kaiser and others. Suicide rates are rising at an alarming rate among young people, perhaps exacerbated by excessive social media involvement and stresses of modern technological life and uncertain futures.

I have many issues I am still working thru even as an old person. Another self-therapy resource I've found very useful is a book titled The Science of Stuck: Breaking Through Inertia to Find Your Path Forward, by Britt Frank, LSCSW, 2022.

Very clearly written straightforward researched advice, suggestions, and simple challenging exercises to do. Something for everyone. We need all the help we can get! I've read it three times and keep coming back for more follow up as issues arise or persist for me. The wise clarity is very calming. encouraging, and supportive.

Occasional reminder: I do professional 1:1 #coaching. I coach people in EN/DE and I'll be having a few open spots soon.

So if you (or someone around you) want to:

develop new #habits
set & achieve new #goals,
reflect & learn (e.g. all sorts of #leadership topics)

Then: let's talk!

Does anyone know of a #Linux based #HabitTracker that's #OpenSource? Most of what I've found thus far, isn't exactly what I'm after!

I've been using Habitica but have realised that that particular app just isn't working for me!

My life would be complete if #TickTick would introduce shared #habits.

Today I wrote about how and why I journal in Obsidian as a new deliberate habit in 2024.

Also: Happy Lunar New Year!

Cliff notes for hesitant link clickers:

1. Letting go of unhelpful thoughts
2. Accepting painful feelings
3. Setting (and enforcing) healthy boundaries
4. Prioritizing self-care

DAY 10/365

I've been posting on Mastodon for 10 days already and I like it a lot, more and more people are participating and responding to me.
Very surprised in a good way by the application and the community !

Occasional reminder: I do professional 1:1 #coaching and have a few open spots starting in February/March.

So if you (or someone around you) are considering an "outside" (of your workplace) person for e.g.:

developing new #habits
setting & achieving new #goals,
reflection & learning

Then: let's talk!
