Regarding the martial art -- is your goal to study one or to become proficient at one? They're different things, after all; the destination is not the journey & all of that. Which martial art will depend in large part on what you'd like to accomplish with it -- are you studying it for self-defense, for exercise, because it's beautiful, so you can better write martial artist characters?
Perhaps instead of looking for an initial organising principle, you could keep writing down more things that you'd like to do and then examine why you want to do each of those things. What is the driving goal behind the things which interest you?
It also occurs to me that you seem to have a goal already; you want to remain engaged with life and learn how to take more risks. Might that be an organisational princple?
