Hello, World!

I have recently stumbled upon something known as "life-hacking." The term originated with geeks who would take liberties with code to make their jobs easier. Now it refers to doing the same with your actual life.

I have actually been practicing this for some time now. For example, I color code my wardrobe to help me remember what day it is. However, it is now time to take this to an extreme. It is time to reach maximum efficiency and achieve my wildest dreams. The most obvious way to do this is to create a plan and tweak it into awesomeness as I go along and better and more experienced.

So, the objective is to, within 20 years:

- Become a successful concert pianist

- Publish a novel

- Be in excellent physical condition

- Be socially graceful.

Within 5 years:

- Play a concerto with an orchestra

- Win a piano competition

- Have a complete outline for said novel

- Have control of my dreams

Within 1 year:

- Be known as a great musician throughout the campus

- Have a job teaching piano

- Solidify basic plot idea for novel

- Have excellent dream recall

By the end of December:

- Receive top marks for my juries

- Perfect Asturias

- Remember 4 dreams each week

- Have a list of piano competitions and summer camps I'm interested in

- Meditate daily for an hour

By the end of the week:

- Memorize choir music

- Remember 1 dream

- Record polished pieces

- Make the first two lines of Bach Prelude absolutely stunning
