Getting better at the meditation techniques. It's still hard to totally empty the mind of all thoughts and sit at the edge of sleep without ACTUALLY falling asleep. I often start meditation and then wake up in the morning feeling super refreshed even after only 6 hours of sleep.

I'm thinking about taking a ninjutsu class soon. Maybe it will help to add more martial arts to my neikung/qigong/tai chi meditation practice. John Chang says his art form is mostly about fighting before anything else. So maybe it helps to actually do some fighting as part of the training.
