## August: [/jaw-massage](https://www.beeminder.com/shanaqui/jaw-massage)

Well, this was useless. I don’t think it helped at all, because the jaw muscles in question don’t actually seem to be tense during the day. I’m dropping this goal.

## September: [/ughfield](https://www.beeminder.com/shanaqui/ughfield)

I need to figure out which of my goals are working and which are causing more stress or annoyance than they solve. I have some ideas already, but I’d rather gather data properly over the course of a month and decide based on that.

Hence this goal! I’ve made a spreadsheet, and this goal is for helping me fill it out. Each day, I’ll identify the three goals I feel most “ugh” about on a given day (though I can add more if it’s a particularly ‘ugh’ day).

I’m not committing myself to acting on the data; no matter how “ugh” I find doing my physio, I can’t stop it. But if at the end of the month I consistently find something “ugh”, and it’s not something essential, it’ll be time to drop it, redefine it, or figure out what makes it ugh and change that.
