Self improvement general. Get in here you beautiful train wrecks. What’s the point of coming here if you don’t take something positive away every once in a while? What are your improvements and what you are struggling with? I’ll start.
>Haven’t smoked any green in two weeks after a decade of pretty much daily use >deepened my relationship with my family and thanked them for all they have done for me and told them the ways I admire them >dealing better with fear related to my first ever arrest this year, court date is in may
Struggles: >cleanliness and organization >procrastination >letting opportunities slip by due to low self confidence How are you holding up, bros?
One step at a time, user. You quit the cigs because you value yourself and that’s huge. Good for you.

I miss my comfy, hazy days off a lot. As long as I had a bag and nothing else to do, I was happy as a clam. I’m in my late twenties and for the first time, it caused some legal problems in my life. Made me think about all the time and effort I had dedicated to the habbit over the years. Tried to cut back to only at the end of the days and found that I didn’t have the willpower to do that, so I just separated all together. I am bored, but my mind is clear. A young man should be doing more with his time.

>24 >have good job >single >don't know how to meet women >don't know how to talk to wemen Just fuck me up senpai
Don’t buy into the ideas about dating that (((they))) sell you on tv. Fuck bars and all that slutty shit. Find a passion and follow it. A real woman will take notice of a man who is driven. Don’t lose hope bro. I feel like an awkward cuck around girls and found someone by happenstance at a friends wedding. Don’t close yourself off yet. You aren’t even fully grown up yet. Time is on your side.

Try talking with every single one.
You will stumble upon the autistic one eventually.

>>deepened my relationship with my family and thanked them for all they have done for me
This is a good one. Wish I'd taken the time to do that more before losing family.

Got put on medication and now been doing a lot better with life and work

Unattractive spotted. Work out and get big arms only; women are easily impressed by stupid things like that and will seek you out at bars. If you're gay you're going to have to put in a lot more effort to how you look / body image than just arms day every day
Brandon Rivera
This thread brings a tear to my eye and gives me some hope. Thanks, user.
>I don't have the mental capacity to do the thing so nobody else should do it Ok
Ian Hughes
Not sure what to do.
>Late 20s >Always tired, force myself to work just enough to get by each month (I'm a freelancer) >Getting so bad that I'm exhausted after 30 minutes of lifting, used to do 2+ hour gym sessions 4 days a week. Acid reflux doesn't help either. >Want to do so much with my life but end up sleeping 16+ hours on all my off days
The only time I felt like I was alive in the last 5 years was when I was taking modafinil, but I haven't bought any since bitcoin went mainstream. Any advice?
Nathaniel Robinson
Trying to work out every day, avoid empty calories and not blame my fiance for not accomplishing those goals. My schedule pretty much revolves around work and whatever she wants on any given day, but I use that as an excuse to not lift consistently.
Lucas Morris
After a productive last semester I've fallen into absolute apathy and laziness. How fix?
Adrian Baker
What I do when I get lazy is when I notice that I'm doing it (I see a pair of pants on the floor and dont pick it up for ex.) I have an internal dialogue >hey, you noticed those pants right there >why don't you pick it up? It'll take 10 seconds >you have literally nothing better to do right now, there's no excuse for you to not pick those up right now I do the same for cooking, giving gf shoulder massages, washing the car etc.
> Flirt with girl at work for months > She has a kid from previous marriage (she's only 22) > I can't resist the chemistry we have > Sleep with her once > She's pregnant > Blond hair blue eyes, not sure if I should keep it > Life will change drastically, maybe it needs to...
on another note iv started eating oatmeal with fruit, Chia seeds and flax seeds for lunch and I feel amazing. Drink spirulina, no breakfast, first meal at 12.30, brazil nutts, blue berries, pomegranate, great bloodflow to the penis, no porn, nofap, watchout because apparently healthy living can make you impregnate someone quick.
stay frosty lads, go to the gym, eat well, and never stop getting better.
I love you faggots. You have been good friends to me. I hope you all do well.
Daniel Robinson
you need to do cardio. Daily. I dont give a fuck if you get tired, do a 30 minute cardio session daily. I was a lazy piece of shit until i went doing daily runs. Believe me, it works, just force yourself. I didnt want to do it but i forced myself.
Caleb Stewart
Good for you, bro. That’s a scary step. Glad to hear the risk and the effort paid off.
I quit smoking weed today...the past few days were full of smoking. I got disgusted by it and it finally put me off of it. The t break was needed.
I recently restarted working out again after 3 years of inactivity.
Talking to this girl on social app gonna ask her out this week
Now the only thing missing is having dedication to eat healthy every day...but eating out is so much easier and convenient
Anthony Reed
same bro, we're gonna make it, there really are nice girls out there I've met them and they're worth waiting for, don't compare yourself to other guys
Thomas Nguyen
Not judging. Smoke up. It had become an obstacle for me personally. If it fits you, go for it! I will return to enjoying it once i get my shit together and distance myself from the habbit.
Grayson Baker
Don’t underestimate the effects of sugar and caffeine on your sleep. Even if you can fall asleep, they can disrupt your brain doing its repair work in the night and fuck your shit up. That helped me with a similar issue. If you still have problems, consider going to a sleep specialist. Good luck.
Thomas Peterson
Good advice. I should take it. My place is a wreck because of chronic procrastination.
Carter Robinson
Good luck no matter what you choose to do, bro. Could be the best thing that ever happened to you.

Learn about Methylation - pretty interesting stuff
>The methylation cycle is responsible for or involved in a number of essential functions in the body. These include detoxification; controlling inflammation; regulation of the immune system; maintaining DNA; and the production of glutathione (the body’s master antioxidant), neurotransmitters such as serotonin and dopamine, and a number of crucial chemicals and proteins...
Recovering obese NEET here. Deadlifted 415lbs today at 187lbs bodyweight. Shooting for 450lbs in the next couple of months. Been sticking to a self-imposed rule of drinking only on Friday / Saturday nights (used to be every day) - eventually it'll just be Fridays. Also been reading a book or two a week for the past year or so.
My Achilles' heel is turning out to be nofap, but I'm working on it. Feeling good these days, focused. Good luck to all.
