New Year Resolutions or New Year Reviews ?  

Not a creative explosion but constant chipping away.
Kai-zen ** style. 
There's always scope for continuous improvement.     


My own resolutions echo those of yesteryears and gravitate towards self-care.  Make more time for reading , for learning , for music.  Like a broken record, pardon the pun.  Take care of yourself and you can take care of others.  
 
Thank you Robin for your simple and succinct pointers.  A neat refresh as we herald in 2021 with anticipation and a dot of trepidation.  Apt any time of the year , whenever you may read this.
