I was actually thinking of doing some Brazilian Jiu Jutsu. Good idea.

Nothing makes me feel more confident than leaving the house in my favorite jacket.

Good one. I have 3 jackets, but wear only one of them all the time. Even if it inconvenient for the weather.

#16If you don't already have them: noise cancelling headphones. If you like earbuds, the AirPods Pro are great. For sitting at a desk, over-ear headphones are extremely comfortable and have enough battery life to go all day. You can get a refurbished pair of Bose QC35 II's for $259.

#19Books comes to mind: some quick examples - I learned to do my own electrical work, a-z from a book from Home Depot, just by reading it on my daily train commute . - Learned to sail, and received required certification all from a book. Books really do open your world up.
Could you please name both these books?

Completely agree, noise cancelling headphones can be a great improvement to ones life. I got a pair last year and strongly recommend to people who don't have one.
