December was a good test for my habits.

This month I learned more about diversification and the key action was to start spreading my investments across different instruments, i.e. I will avoid putting all of my money into P2P platforms. Given that I've already done a bit of research into Exchange-Traded Funds (ETFs) that is where I will look to divert some of my income.

I've recently transitioned from an engineer to a manager of a high performing engineering team. Here's a list of things that ended up being useful on my first month.

I came across a thought that I really liked, which says that you never finish working on a habit. There's no magical period after which you no longer have to try.

I was in a habit of binge watching TV shows to help me relax in the evenings. I would watch them for 20 - 40 minutes each evening (this may be even longer if I was in a bad mood).

"Atomic habits" is a book that deserves a lot of credit for various improvements in my life. It gave me the foundations necessary to work on my daily habits.

I regularly have "doom and gloom periods", which affect my mood in a negative way and hinder progress towards my goals. These periods result in lowered motivation and missed objectives. They make it harder to maintain my habits. For a long time I thought that it's "normal" and happens to everyone. I think I may have been wrong.
