1. Get better at piano.

2. Learn how to make a ring, and subsequently

3. Propose once I make one well enough.

I've got the materials in the mail for number 2, and have been working on number 1 a few hours every day.

Propose! Wow! Congratulations!

As a guy that has failed at so many resolutions, can I recommend that for #1 you tweak it be more concrete? For example: I will practice piano an average of 10 minutes per day, with a minimum 70 minutes for week (to cover when I miss a day).

Good advice! I've narrowed it down to: memorize ome jazz standard a week. Lots more concrete, and it's nice to tick things off/see your repertoire grow.
