My grand plan is starting now - with an extreme epistemic update I was in denial about. Hah. And I thought I left those things behind me!

Could you be a bit more detailed? That way everyone can learn from your experience.

Most of it is basically me changing my views and actions and all that. The bottom line is me being the person I want to be, as cliche as that sounds.

My methodology? Read Lesswrong, Overcoming Bias, books, learn from experienced people, try new things etc. I highly recommend LW's search feature, if you search for some words that you're interested in LW's perspective of them, it's very useful. You might also find some forgotten gems, such as: http://lesswrong.com/lw/iri/how_to_become_a_1000_year_old_vampire/

Also, tsuyoku naritai, aka the will to tanscend.
