New Month's Resolutions 2026

May: /finishline

This has worked okay. 15 minutes sometimes feels unsurmountable with a book I’m struggling with (even though it’s fine if I can only get started) while being very little for a book I am enjoying, so it’s a bit rough to balance that. Maybe it should be just five minutes, to lower the activation energy?

For now it’s maintained as is, but I’m pondering it.

June: /tidyingsnacks

I don’t have a lot of free time or mental bandwidth at the moment, but I always think better if I can keep my desk clear at least. So, ‘tidying snacks’, just five minutes a day. I plan to always start with my desk, but expand the circle if that’s tidy, and maybe use a few as an opportunity to put away some lingering stuff in other rooms.
