Erik's Year in Review

• Came up with whole-year goals and broke down into quarterly, monthly, and weekly lists
• Also made weekly and monthly habits checklists
• About 20-30% of the anticipated objectives and habits changed over the year
• The habits that stuck were those that Erik had the most direct control, like stretching and diet
• The items that changed or were not met the most typically involved other people or deep research
• Erik's biggest regret: not enough "for-fun, but also is work" tasks
• Erik's biggest desire to change: more regular date nights
• Leo referred Erik to Derek Sivers' article: Stay in touch with hundreds of people

What's being cut in 2020

• Leo's stepping away from organizing meetups and local networking
• Erik is getting away from nonprofit administration, business social media management, and the status quo of local tech events
• We're stepping away from the podcast, too. More on that in the next episode!
