New exercise in self discipline

The daily exercise regimen I’ve been following for the past 6 months has really been good for me in a number of ways besides the obvious physical benefits. I’ve drawn an interesting conclusion about self-discipline – I’ve used it to improve my physical health and decided it’s time to work on my faculties. If I can force myself to spend 1 hour a day exercising, I should easily be able to force myself to spend 1 hour a day studying technical materials that will help me with my career. So. First up is Linux, better Linux skills will help immensely at work and enhance my job prospects if the rug comes out from under. Starting tonight I’m spending ~ an hour a night reading this until I work my way to the end. I’ll give a progress report in a couple of weeks once I’ve worked my way through it. The Apache webserver is next on the list too (or possibly perl).
