My post is very contrary to the most here but maybe there is someone else in a similar situation so i think it may be worth writing it.

Background: I've spend the bigger part of the past 20 years of my life continously extending and enhancing my technical knowledge and skills, mostly in IT/Coding but also in some other fields. Meanwhile i kinda let my social life completely degrade and also always care more about solving others problems than my actual own problems.

Therefor the "skills" i want to improve and develop in 2026:

- Learn to take care of myself instead of always putting others first (its not my job to safe the world)

- Don't try to got 150% all of the time and rather slow down

- Care for my health

- Get back into social life

- Actually try to not spend 95% of my free time in front of a screen and go outside (touch grass)

---------------------------------------------------------------------

While i accumulated alot of knowledge over the past two decades, if i don't start to care for myself more ill probably won't have much benefit of it other than having accumulated it. Health (biological and mental) are important, neglecting it maybe works shortterm but will kick your ass longterm.
