SIG/ Self Improvement General

>To-Do are, well, things you must do. You can have a checklist within one To-Do.

()Fix the shelf

()Go to the post office and send the package

()Buy the ticket to the concert

()Pay the landlord

()Organize my trip to the moon

—()Get the rocket tickets

—()Get the reservation for the moon Hostel

—()Buy some moonars to have some local money

—()Buy a map of moon city

Seeing the numbers go up (or health go down) is a weird sort of motivation. I can vouch for it. Give it a try, if you have no idea where to start, This is a good one.
Fill your bad habits, put the to-do’s and take it from there

Hey buddy, care to share a pastebin to create these threads?

Meditation is not the ultimate answer.

God is.

This is my personal contribution to the thread, alongside starting it:

This is the one I used and it's my favourite. There are many others though

Get dumbbells and a pull up bar. Less than $50 total if you're smart. Fill in the rest with bodyweight exercises.

Nice pic user, I'm saving it

Thank you very much anons

If you want to drop the sugar heroin aka soda.

You should phase it out in stages, not drop it completely in just one shot. If not you could risk from suffering withdrawal syndrome (yes, seriously).

You are right, user: already read both (being able to read Macchiavelli in original language is pretty nice) and I recommend them too

True
Every time I have tried to quit, I had bad headaches for about 3 days. After that it is fine, but those days really suck.
Actually managed to quit. Drink only one small bottle once a while now. My motivation was that I am now spending a buttload of money to get my teeth fixed, and the soda just fucks up your teeth really bad.

I do the same, bro.

I like to drink something tasty with my meals, so after considering options I switched to water with lemon juice and works perfectly.

You only need like two or three lemons and gallon of water and you are ready to go!

Grazie. Ma in verita devo praticare per ottenere un nivelo adeguato. La mia pronuncia deve megliore abbastanza e anche la grammatica. Ma ti ringrazio, amico.

its pretty great seeing a meme i made get circulated on here.

SIG is my favorite thread, and really the only I pop into anymore these days. except for real big happenings.

SIG is about little steps. Small advances.

Also, i got a warning from the faggot mods that SIG isnt political. They dont want you to get better.

Attached: sig_5.png (1473x2000, 1.28M)

Stop pushing your political agenda, faggot. This is nether the time nor the place. Your brash actions deteriorate the quality of discussion and dissolve the postive work being done here.

I did this and it worked well.

>Keyword "worked"

then after 2 months of not one single soda I had one with my lunch and it was like crack. Now Im back to a 12pack in a few days I am gonna die

Pretty good. Just finished my weightlifting routine. Worked on some research earlier. Probably done for the day, since I have other shit to do tonight.

If anyone is interested in Christian literature, I'd suggest Imitation of Christ by Kempis. Meditations for Lent by Bossuet is also good, but Lent is already over this year.

Yeah: about 75% of the times I try to start a SIG thread, it gets deleted before it can really begins. Damn mods.
(Also, congratulations for the meme: it really became a classic!)

Relapse can happen but you did it once, user: you can quit again and possibly for good

Doing well.

Finals start Sunday and I haven't studied much. I have a project due tomorrow and I'm beginning to fall ill.

That said, the weather is absolutely lovely, I'm in the best shape of my life, I have a date set up for this weekend, a community potluck/party tonight, and a job and future career lined up for the summer. Thanks, /SIG/

My Aryan spirit is on fire.

Just don't buy a 12 pack, idiot.

Think of it like a game, every time you let your bad habit win, it makes the other team stronger, and every time you wrest control from your bad habit your team gets stronger. Eventually you'll be so strong you will be facing challenges you didn't even know existed and you will feel like God.

user, don't resign to defeat; it is precisely that sort of attitude that hasn't led us to this prison world. You must hail Victory, praise triumph; there is no greater joy.

Yesterday was my last day of class. I have one last paper to type and then I'm done for the term. I was able to get A's this term due to /SIG/.

I have summer and fall term paid for, plus have the money for my AEMT schooling put away. This summer I'm going to work on getting a more stable income and working out a lot.

These threads are awesome. Does anyone have some very basic economic tutorials? I'm taking some accounting classes and will have my B.S. in Accounting before I ETS from the Air Force and would like to gain a more in depth understanding of economics (other than basic Supply/Demand subject matter we learn in Macro/Microeconomics).

Also, can anyone tell me if I should go for my M.S. in Accounting for M.B.A. if I'm looking to attain my CPA and apply for a "Big 4" company? I'm in the process of improving myself immensely and love these threads too. I know I can't be the only user interested in finance & business.

Any Anons here into stock trading? How is it? Do you like it? Working at an investment bank would be a dream come true of mine (even though it's highly unlikely).

It's not bad that you're a virgin.
It's only bad if you haven't had a gf before.

MS accounting for CPA type gigs. MBAs don’t recruit into those types of roles.

Don’t actively trade unless you’re RenTech.

Renaussance Technologies are the black magik dark arts nerds. Look them up. Generally active trading - unless you have an edge (RenTech’s is algos) - loses you money. Index funds are the way to go; lower fees than active managers, most of whom aren’t good. IB isn’t trading - most firms have shuttered their prop desks. IB is moving capital - mergers, acquisitions, IPOs, debt deals, etc.

I'm not depressed per se as I once were, just... indifferent. On theory I shouldn't be, because now I more or less have a mission. I know the things and behaviors that do me harm and should be avoided, yet I feel despondent. These days I only come to Jow Forums out of habit, because the level has gone down considerably, and also because I can't fucking stand normies. To be honest, I was doing pretty well until it dawned on me I was a mutt. Suddenly there was no meaning anymore. This has happened like 2 months ago, and there are no signs of getting any better. This is something I cannot change no matter how much effort I put into it. I haven't been able to really do anything, yet I feel above normies, because now I see that even though they lead "productive" lives, they are just organic robots. They go to college to understand the step by step they'll have to follow at their job, and that's it. They don't think. They can't hold a conversation that isn't about Transformers, butts or sports. And the ones who try to have a conversation about other matters are generally try hard pseudo intellectuals who think throwing around philosophy terms they googled makes them thinking beings.

Meditate on Scripture.

Read Evola and take a peak at his works on the Metaphysics of race.
His works are in line with the deepest of Jow Forums'a philosophy while being light on race; he'll red pill you beyond imagining

Spirit > mind > body
All three must be in line for a man to unlock his full potentional. God speed, monkey.

I think a lot of degenerates would be surprised how much women pick up on the quality of person you are aspiring to be. Instead of tv and movies I read books, and walk in the evenings. I have honestly the cutest, sweetest gf anywhere and a few years ago all I could attract was disgusting hoes. I literally could not have thought this possible

Of course most people "are shit". But the point is that you dont have to be "that shitty person" too. Start with the body, First easy step is to stop doing things that are bad for you. Then start doing things that a good for you, because with a healthy body comes a healthy mind and with a healthy mind comes a healthy body. Then work on your mind and watch the thinker. Disidentify with him so he stops tormenting you, become conscious. Focus on the now and not the future nor the past. Future and past doesnt exist, only the now, in which you improve yourself. You cant change the past and the future is just another Now moment. Dont wait for salvation in the future, stop seeing the now as a mean to getting there. Stop being a habitual waiter.

I can't shake masturbation.

I left my year+ long girlfriend about a month ago.

I work 80 hour weeks, work out, do gunsmithing and automotive repair on the side.

But I always wake up in the middle of the night possessed by a boner demon.

I didn't have this problem before, when I first rose from my incel grave I had the willpower to kick this habit.

What works?

I'm quite aware of Evola, pic related was a nice guide of him floating around, but just reading one or two of his books isn't enough to really get him, and it's really hard to find his books around here. I'd have to buy everything from amazon and import it from the US, buying two books of his would cost me over 200 bucks in local currency.
You know what pains me the most? I'm not one of those deformed orcs whose lineage has been mutted for generations. If not for my father, I wouldn't be a mutt, and he wasn't even a good father figure, I despised him since I was a kid. I know this is starting to look like a attention whoring reddit bullshit, I'm just putting it out because you just can't talk about race with anyone else. And then I see my dad is weak because he checks mutt stereotypes, and all it would take for me not to be a mutt would be ONE person. My maternal uncle looks like a fucking SS poster boy. Yet here I am, and there's no going back. Yeah my dad is not a nigger or anything, but a mutt nonetheless, and there's no coming back from that. I mean, why bother? Every single mutt I've ever met was despicable, my identity and belief system has always been based on European values, yet no matter how much I want it, those are not my genes. And now everywhere I look, I understand why people are dishonest, weak, degenerate, you name it. Mutt behavior, as is expected in a mutt country. And at least to some degree, that is me.

What has worked in the past for me was making a deal with myself.

I could only indulge in my habit if I did some act of work first. Only buy a soda if I drink 2 glasses of water first only fap if I walk around outside, clean my home, or cook a meal for the future first. If the desire is truly primal and worth indulging in, then these acts will not deter you. However, if it is simply an impulses trained into you like a rat, it will break upon being confronted with a different set of circumstances.

This will slowly train you overtime to stop whatever is causing you to impulse fap to be no longer trigger you and eventually you will not have to even worry about it anymore.

>duolingo.com
>First and foremost. Free language learning tool with a really robust app. THIS IS A MUST. Learning a new language will help you out no matter who you are.

Duolingo is shit. It's good for vocabulary but at the end of day is a waste of time unless you're autistic enough to tolerate how repetitive that shit is.

What makes you good at a language is using it. Even with a fucking level 1 you can make amazing improvements but takes effort.

If you can pay, take some lessons. If you're a poor fag pirate some basic grammar books and audio courses (primsleaur is awesome) . Reddit has good recommendations for every language. Youtube videos will help you complement on specific use cases.
But picking up a language is a big effort. Unless there is a specific goal you've in mind. (Some kind of literature you enjoy, some country you want to visit). You learn a language by applying it. Most languages will require you to go out of you daily routine to have a chance to use it.

Instead I'd recommend picking up a music instrument. Same kind of repetitive studying, same amount of effort but more visible results.

>How have you improved yourself this week/month/year?
I made some serious progress at the begining of the year (several months fapping once a month without porn) but due to a love failure I fell back. Now I've put my shit together and I'm starting again, today is the fourth day. Aside from this I do some exercice every day since more than two years ago, I've been doing surprisingly well at college, and I've been practising Italian again and I may try to learn French on summer. I still waste a lot of time doing pretty useless shit or simply lazing around though.

You seem obsessed with being "a mutt". A stupid pol meme. You still haven't accept yourself. How old are you?

Don't bash yourself for something you cannot change.

Fucking faggot, quit your incessant whining.

If you read truly understood what Evola wrote you'd understand that your fate is intertwined with your genetics. Indeed Evola believed that your soul CHOSE this outcome for some god forsaken reason. So man up and stop bitching; if your idealogy is causing you to hate yourself then you either need to fucking man up or you've mentally cucked yourself.

I'm interested in personal finance too but from a savings/stocks/IRAs perspective. If you know anything, lemme know. As these threads continue to grow in popularity, despite the mods being faggots about them, I'm sure some wise user will take the time to make a basics infographic for us.

Attached: SIG_Diet.jpg (1126x1001, 871K)

That was part of how it worked for me in the past.

Instead of jerkin' it, I'd do something productive.

The problem, now, is that I'm always doing something productive. I don't drink anything but water and OJ, my diet is locked to an excel spreadsheet and meal-prepped a month in advance, I already pushed my workout routine too far and had to pull back a little because I was fucking up my knees and wrists.

The minimal remaining time I have was spent servicing a lever-action shotgun I recently purchased that I plan to resell after it's working.

The problem is that I wake up and can't go back to sleep with a hard-on.
