Change of life : what is the best fresh start ever ?

Hi guys, I'm about to quit my job (today is my last day at the office), to finish my degree in Computer Science. I'd like to take that opportunity to make a fresh start in my GTD system, my working habits, and my life in general. Here's my question : what is the single new habit you took that dramatically changed your way of doing things, in work and in life ? I'm not looking for a silver bullet here, just someting easy that gets me on the right track for that new route in life I'm taking. Thanks in advance,

How do I make a website?

Meaning: I'm sure I saw quite a few new articles yesterday, but now we're back at Improving Academic Presentation Style.

Currently using IE 7 on an XP-machine.

Yours, Andra

Cranking

Merlin used to crank. He’s not cranking any more.

This is an essay about family, priorities, and Shakey’s Pizza, and it’s probably the best thing he’s written. »

Scared Shitless

Merlin’s scared. You’re scared. Everybody is scared.

This is the video of Merlin’s keynote at Webstock 2011. The one where he cried. You should watch it. »
