Title: So in the spirit of new year&#x27;s resolutions I&#x27;m planning to learn some new things this year; specifically, I want to to draw, and I want to at least get started learning Japanese. I&#x27;d also like to keep improving my skill at mahjong, which I picked up last year, and keep on learning tech-related things.<p>However, I find it pretty difficult to pick up new things. Learning to draw especially is pretty overwhelming for me; I have no idea how to start, as someone with no skill or experience in drawing whatsoever. Learning a language is also pretty intimidating, and it doesn&#x27;t help that I find the usual way of learning languages (grinding flash cards) to be distinctly awful (not to mention I&#x27;m terrible at it).<p>As HN seems like a community where people love to learn new things, how do you guys go about things like these?
