New Year Resolution Wins & Fails – That Pedal Show

We made some new year resolutions in 2020 – did we succeed with them?

Life too short for long YouTube videos? Please see the ‘Interesting bits and go-to sections’ information below.

Welcome to the show! Yep, we’re still in lockdown so we can’t be in the same room. Thusly, we are chancing a thoughtful look rearwards at our resolutions for 2020. How did we fare?

the shows referenced in this video are as follows, with links in case you’d like to watch them again… or maybe for the first time.
All the gear used is listed in the video descriptions in each individual video, links below. Enjoy!

Note from me (Mick here) on all the mental health stuff from 15 minutes: I just want to be absolutely clear that I’m not arguing the case for any of these approaches, or holding them up as anything you ‘should’ do. I’m merely sharing a personal experience that may or may not be of use.
Similarly with terms and concepts; I’d really urge everyone not to get too tied up with specific words or definitions or the idea that any of this is ‘right’ or ‘correct’. It is merely a way of thinking – or more accurately, a way of NOT thinking – that has really helped me personally. With that in mind, I won’t be engaging in any discussion about the validity of anything discussed on an academic level. A YouTube comments section can’t adequately expand a whole thesis or philosophical standpoint. If you want to argue about the academics, please read the books thoroughly first and then hit some psychology and philosophy forums. No doubt they are alight with debate!
