In my quest to become an excellent data scientist, I've suffocated all my other talents and hobbies. Drawing, guitar, sports, foreign languages.
I thought I couldn't have these because they consumed too much space in my mind. Turns out I was wrong. I just didn't know enough about practicing those skills.
A few months ago I restarted guitar practice, with modest success. Recently I restarted learning Polish. Next will be pen and ink, and lastly baseball.
On my way to become who I want to be.

@luksfarris@ruby.social I also restarted guitar a few months ago. I remembered that it's *fun*, even if I'm not especially good at it, and therefore worthwhile by itself. What I've started calling "The Music Project" has put out tendrils in all directions; there's so much good stuff to explore!
