Hi John,
I am starting to reduce the number of objects I view at each session.
When I first got a GOTO mount I was trying to look at as many objects as I could each session just because the GOTO could locate them for me. Then I realised that a wasn't really seeing/absorbing much from the quick view of each object.
A couple of good observing books like those by James O'Meara and and Sue French will help you get more out of each object and slow you down to just one or two objects most sessions.

Don't forget Double Stars open up another really interesting area, particularly when the moon is up or light pollution is washing out the DSOs.
