My all encompassing lifestyle project

My project is to become self-aware of my lifestyle and apply myself constructively. I need to allow for my changing attitudes and aptitudes, actively re-target to my chosen areas of focus (which coexist and build off one another) and develop skills & habits. The idea is to avoid being the victim of my own daily/weekly grind and not seeing the forest for the trees.

This began after starting GTD, which I'm not done implementing, but I've learned so much about me. It's a lot of ground to cover. I'll need some smaller lifestyle projects to use as building blocks. These should focus on expanding my skill set and developing good habits (mental and physical).

Areas of Focus

Marriage
Retirement
Work/Life balance
Physical fitness
Parenting
Enjoyable worklife

Making my family part of the local community
