The Essential Blue Mountain: 2012

New Years' is often a time for looking forward, with resolutions and hopes aplenty for the coming year. But the days preceding it are frequently used for the opposite purpose; to look back, and rehash how we've arrived at the present. With Christmas now behind us, it seemed like a good time to go back and sift through the past year's posts and list those I think were quality.

Before I do, however, I'd first like to list the "memorials" from the past year:

Caballo Blanco (1954-2012)
Neil A. Armstrong (1930-2012)
Lindsay Budnick (1989-2012)

...and now, 12 posts (in no particular order) from 2012:

1.) Creative Problem Solving: its two forms

2.) Challenge or Opportunity

3.) The Problem with Rewards and Punishments

4.) Hydration and Exercise

5.) 7 Stimulating Books

6.) On how one should ask a girl out

7.) Marine Corps Marathon Adventure

8.) Positive emotions improve academic performance

9.) Practicing without haste

10.) Walking the walk

11.) Moderation

12.) How this blog got its name

There are a few others I thought could make the list, but there you have it: the essential Blue Mountain of 2012. I hope you've all had a wonderful year, and best wishes for the year to come. Many thanks to you all for your love and support.
