It's The Weekend Edition
sticky: 4chanfit.wikia.com
previous: What are you working on this next week to self improve? How will you tackle any obstacles that you have before you? What advice can you give to people who may be starting out, or struggling?
YOU GOT THIS BROS! WE ALL GONNA MAKE IT!
It will all end one day, maybe tomorrow, maybe next week or year.
But in the end you will end, your time will be no longer, everything you built, loved, hated, all gone, forever.
As the weekend ends, this artificial construct imposed by you by people no different than you, as you start your job, remember this, time is ticking, all the fronts, jealousy, hate, all will vanish, all will end.

>Started reading because it feels like I have so much free time now
And on top of it all, I found a recipe for delicious orange protein smoothies. Thanks for everything, /sig/. We're all gonna make it
Any advice on how to make my financial situation better? Really bad with money, but all financial advice I get is restrictive to the point of being unrealistic.
Minutes ago I have finally completed the first draft of my campaign setting for an rpg. For the first time in a very long time, I finished somethign I've started.
Feels good man.
Buy only things you need
Sell everything you don't need
This is pretty good advice, all things considered. What I personally wound up doing was buying a finance book/ledger and took all of my money out of the bank. That way I see exactly how much I'm spending on a regular basis. Anything less than 5 dollars that I get in change? Goes into my little tootsie roll bank from when I was a kid. I think I've probably got well over a grand stuffed in there by now, but I refuse to open it up and look yet. Also, buy local goods because they're cheap as hell and probably of better quality than what you can get at the supermarket.
You just remind me to try this japanese shit I read last month. It's called Kakeibo and please disregard all the weeaboo shit you may encounter.
How can I build a social media presence that would help me expand my social circle?
I have no hobbies, no close friends, and no particular talents. I was told that I am pretty interesting with my stories and opinions however I didn't have any social presence until now (I reactivated a year and a half empty facebook profile and made an instagram profile)
I'm pretty much ready to try whatever to go for it.
fuck me do I want a fragile art hoe right now to fuck her brains out
join interest groups that vaguely appeal to you and socialize with people there, go out with them and the circle will likely keep expanding.
I'm not the type to keep track of stuff like that to that level. I don't even keep track of calories desu.
I don't know what to consider need and not need. Like I know this resort I'm joining is not something I "need" per say, but I have been in this town for 5 months and have made no friends, so this is the only way I can come up with to meet people so I'm not sitting in my apartment every weekend being depressed.
>I'm not the type to keep track of stuff like that to that level. I don't even keep track of calories desu.
Then begin tracking, mate. If there's is something which helps you to 'anchor' yourself and be responsible in whatever activity you're in, is tracking.
I'll b ur friend user what's ur insta
bump for the best thread
also who is that poem by?
Finally have a day off tomorrow to get back into the gym and cram in some social and family time. Tonight though... I have so much I need to get done, but I don't feel like doing a damn thing.
Kinda wanna go for a hike and get rid of some glycogen instead of doing anything productive. But I hate where I'm at in my life and I need to make changes.
Help me /SIG/
stop thinking about it and just do it
google it instead of wasting time asking
Maybe user replies and I know the author from something else. Maybe we strike up and conversation and I take him out on a date.
Quit being a cynical fuck on a social website. There's how you can improve.
>Maybe we strike up and conversation and I take him out on a date.
like that's going to happen and like you're not wasting even more time replying to my post. I'm just giving good advice mate, no need to call me a bitter cunt all of a sudden.
Usually on the weekends I'll drink a decent amount at least one of the two nights. I worked out so hard yesterday and today that I haven't even seen the point in drinking at night. I'm too tired, what's the point in drinking a lot when I'll be too tired to do anything.
Drinking isn't a problem at all for me, not actively trying to stop, but it's definitely the one thing holding me back from really making it. Feels good man. Up early tomorrow to work out before it hits 100 degrees F.
I never had problem with booze, nor did I drink excessively but I can't drink beer that's not piss weak without getting a headache. I can drink as much garbage as I want without it hitting me, but one quality IPA destroys my head. I'm fucked, right?
I want to start meditating, where do I start? I've never done something like this before, is there a good guide to it somewhere?
>autism preventing joke comprehension
I'm sorry user. I'll just leave this site and google anything I might be interested in from now on. Thanks for the sage advice.
Finance user here, going to need more info to work off though. What's the current situation ie age job income debts savings living arrangements etc
find some peace and quiet, get into a position you find comfortable and just meditate for 15-30 minutes and see how it goes
At least ask something relating to the topic that's actually interesting or at least more interesting than yours if starting a discussion or a convo is what you seek.
>32
>$23,760/ year (just got a raise so that will be going up a little
>$1,000 in savings
>$3,452.68 in credit card debt
>currently live by myself
Wanting get my credit card debt taken care of and get about 6 months worth of my expenses set up so I can move to the resort I want to live at. The problem is my aspergers along with what interests I have makes it hard for me to relate to people. I'm wanting to get a membership to the resort and can split the payments over 3 months, but that means putting about another $300 on my card. But, if I don't get it, I will end up just sitting in my apartment every weekend, which is not good for me.
You're doing great, no need to comment, but I want that orange smoothie recipe tho
Ok, how much is the resort, and do you own your current house or do you rent. If so how much is rent. Do you have any other significant assets eg a car, what would be its resell value?
What do you mean by "just meditate", what does that have me do?
Ho do I build up up up my fucking willpower ?
In terms of discipline or motivation, or both?
close your eyes and just relax, google it for more help.
what do you need it for exactly?
The resort is $670 a year for the gold membership. I live in an apartment so I don't own. I pay $675 a month on rent.
I also have a car, but I would not be able to function without it.
thoughts?
Ok guys so here is my situation
>be me
>in engineering school
>have to do an internship during the summer, intership in totally included in my syllabus
>found it, start it
>school calls me
>tells me that not a good intership, doesn't me our standards, fuck it, fuck you, stap ot asap
>stop the intership
>have no intership
>is in trouble because doesn't have the intership required for the syllabus
>may have to re-do the entire year because of that or maybe my graduation will be delayed for the due-time internship
>have the result of the finals
>have to repass two of them
>again, may have to re-do the entire year because of that
>my rank will not allow me to do an academic exchange semester and/or a double syllabus in another foreign uni
>want to find a job to have something done during this lost summer beacause no intership but doesn't find any job
>> no intership, no job, have to repass the exam, may have "lost" an entire year of my shitty life, bullshit rank
What the fuck am I supposed to do ?
You were right. I think I have the autism.
To stop shitting up this thread,
>Working on this week
finishing commission work for financial gains and working on start-up
also coming up with a meal plan to bulk
Any tips on breakfast? I can't stop eating just two bowls of cereal with almost milk because it's so damn fast and easy.
In terms of both of them
To increase motivation, discipline and dedication for more than just a week or two.
When I am getting my shit together, everything falls appart like a house of card on the other side of the room, starting to believe "it's always me" and that such things always happen to me.
But I am not in a "victimization state of mind", and I know that everybody have to cope with problems, and I do believe that working on willpower and tenacity may help me rise and shine.
>To increase motivation, discipline and dedication for more than just a week or two.
just stick with it when it gets rough and keep the routine going, I don't know what else to say.
I'm just walking into the gym at the moment so will help more when I get home, looking at that quickly though. I'll assume your 23.7 is pre tax. That means 34% of your pre-tax income is in rent, which is really high. Normally aim for
would love that orange smoothie recipe pls
I think i'm going to have o work out in planet fitness. I'll just use the dumbbells instead of the smith machine for compound lifts
The rent there isn't much I can do about, it was the cheapest rent I could find in town. I'm not sure what the interest rate is, but it ends up being $89 in interest where I'm at each month. Also, I don't know if I should consider the resort a need or not because like I said without it, it's work, gym, home which considering I was suicidal most of last year would be a problem in the long run.
is icing my balls going to improve my Testosterone levels?
icing them rn, kinda hurts at times desu
>Everything you love and cherish will perish
Yeah yeah
Does it have elves XD XD elves make everything vettet
About to graduate from an accounting degree at a decent uni, kinda scared about the post graduate life. Any anons got advice? I started gym for physical gains and confidence and reading for mental gains. But I think it's the social aspect that's sort of freaking me out.
Must differ for each person. The motivation threads are what helped me out of depression and Skelly mode.
let me recount my great experience last night trying to improve myself socially, /SIG/
>typical weird aspie, no friends, kissless virgin at 26, etc
>only people i talk to are my coworkers
>never share any details about my life, never really show emotion, etc but can make people laugh
>go to a bar tonight with a few female coworkers and a guy one of them is dating
>spend a lot of the night not talking while having one of their dogs in my lap
>a guy with down syndrome who was there came to our table and sat with us for like an hour because of the dogs
>deal with a lot of ridicule because i didnt drink anything until they got me a double shot vodka that i drank fine, and in general because of my weirdness
>didn't drink anything because i knew they just wanted me to get drunk to ridicule me afterwards for my behavior
no seriously why do i even try? im too weird to even function normally in society. there is no point in trying to improve myself. im pathetic.
They wanted you to get drunk so you open up a little you retard, assuming they invited you out.
Not everyone is out to get you, you know. People like to be around someone who can be a bit open.
no believe me they just wanted to ridicule and insult me. also i intentionally don't give any details about my life because of how embarrassed about what an autistic worthless shut in loser i am.
You have brainwashed yourself into being a loser and seeings things on a negative perspective. A fix is to brainwash yourself into being a better person. By imagining a good physique through lifting and by looking at yourself positively and working towards the best version of yourself. You have to realise that self pity and downplaying yourself is self destructive and you have to break that habit
12 rules for life. Get the audiobook on a trial.
I dont know how to deal with this, i think you brothers can help me out.
I'm 24, i lost my virginity last month, after a lot of time and unsucessfull social interactions. I do have my friends and i always try to achieve more in the social field, but i still feel weird.
What matters here is: I had deep (of course, as expected of a dumb virgin nigga) feelings for the girl.
We're not toghether anymore and while i'm not running after her, because shes fucking alot of people and i was just another one, i can't focus on my shit because of her. I'm too attached, i think.
How do i let this bitch go? How do i take my mind off of her? I do understan im feeling like this because she was the first, but i have my grind to do, i cant feel like this for another week. I seriously feel like absolute shit, guys. I never had an experience like this, i feel like dying while shes out there doing stuff and posting in social media.
I refuse to be like this, please help me.
I know it's not helpful but when you catch feels like that regardless if it's your first or your thirtieth you'll always feel the sting when you know she's out there living. The only way I can suggest is that you go out and do the same. Throw yourself into shitloads of social situations, it'll be sink or swim most times but most people end up suprised how often they swim. If you wallow at home in pity it just makes it last longer. Regardless of all the edgelords on here, every guy has felt what you felt at least once in their life.
yeah ive been a loser my entire life so i dont know how to do it. even when i am social and talk to people i guess it still repels them
We all get oneitis from time to time. Cut all contact, remove from social media, keep yourself busy.
Fixing my shit sleep. If I sleep badly, I'm garbage ethe next day. Will sleep through gym and be useless at work.
Getting shit back on track, nice early 9 pm bed time, wake up at 5 am for gym tomorrow.
user, be glad they invited you out. Its an opportunity to improve your self. Socialisation takes time.
Main thing about the resort is how much does it cost in additional spending that you add on when you go there, eg drinks food etc that you normally wouldn't spend if you stayed home?
Ok, just finished, hope it did something good ;_;
Similarly while the resort may help with your mental health, the increase in time spent in debt could cancel out any those benefits. Your interest rate on the card is pretty hexy, while 89 a month in interest may not seem like a lot as a raw figure that's >2% per month in just interest. I'm back from the gym too btw.
Some more words of encouragement here. Take some time to see your self worth. Take a weekend road trip with some friends or alone. Keep lifting and try to have fun. Eventually the emptiness goes away and you come to realize that was a part of your growth. Don't lose gains over anybody .
Guys I want to play indoor football, but I am as fit and have as much energy as chandler from friends. Can someone recommend me routines or exercises to be top-tier in terms of energy and physique for playing as defense, please.
>18th birthday
>in year 5 of highschool, good chance I wont get diploma
>mfw I will never go to college or university
>mfw I dont get to follow dreams
>Anxiety and depression is ripping apart my life
What do? Im thinking of dropping out and doing homeschool for a diploma, then applying. Any ideas?
work your fucking ass off and get your diploma.
school sucks and studying sucks, but you’re almost at the finish line to getting it. put in the effort now so you wont have to later
went out and got pissed last night, I had a great night and love my friends but since I've focused more on /sig/ stuff it seems almost like a day wasted even though I enjoyed it, but I can't socialize without alcohol right now so the only way I can hang out with friend is when I'm getting/already am drunk not sure what to do
Ticking away the moments that make up a dull day
You fritter and waste the hours in an offhand way
Kicking around on a piece of ground in your home town
Waiting for someone or something to show you the way
Tired of lying in the sunshine staying home to watch the rain
You are young and life is long and there is time to kill today
And then one day you find ten years have got behind you
No one told you when to run, you missed the starting gun
And you run and you run to catch up with the sun but it's sinking
Racing around to come up behind you again
The sun is the same in a relative way but you're older
Shorter of breath and one day closer to death
Every year is getting shorter, never seem to find the time
Plans that either come to naught or half a page of scribbled lines
Hanging on in quiet desperation is the English way
The time is gone, the song is over
Thought I'd something more to say
I just started Habitica last week. I haven't even got past level 1 and already died once.
I've lost at a game where I set the rules.
fucking end me boys
Redo it, don’t fuck up
you're too uptight, just relax man and it'll be better.
just a little update lads, still not done any cocaine, starting to feel more balanced like everything I've been doing to make my life better is going up an hill like it's all just starting to take effect, even thinking about making youtube videos again, might even make one on things to increase sleep quality and consistency - feeling great lads and just wanted to share that fact with someone
Good to hear man keep that shit up. Just do whatever that makes you feel good and put your youtube channel here if you want.
Lost my virginity hours ago, ask me anything
I do intermittent fasting so I can eat before I go and when I get back. At most, food wise I may take a protein bar and some bottled water. I only live 15 minutes away so gas shouldn't be too much of an issue.
games like that are just gimmicks my friend
a "system" like that won't help if your foundations are off, and if your foundations are good you don't even need it
Nah, no elves. Sorry to disappoint
how fast did you cum?
Didn't cum at all.
were you drunk or what?
wouldn't say drunk per se.
>that 16yo zoomer that just discovered Nietzsche
Not him, but I didn't cum like the first 4-5 times I had sex. Took a while to get into.
drugs then?
how come?
Some people can't even get hard from the nervousness.
>that 30 year old boomer that only knows Nietzsche from movies
>that zoomer that only know Nietzsche through wikiquotes
how old?
>losing a lot of weight
>fitter and fitter by the day
>feeling better and better by the day
>lose weight even if I don't do anything
>eating healthier than ever
>mastered my nutrition and macros
>nofap in full motion
cool
>but became really impatient
>I want to hit those benchmarks already
>just came home from the gym, already thinking about either going back, did some stretching, practiced handstand again
>become impatient to go to the gym
>once at the gym I don't wanna leave
>it's all I think about
>considering going to escorts
>considering making tinder
I'm sometimes annoyed at myself. I want to become fit and look godly, but I don't want to lose myself as a person in the process.
I started a meme page in 2016 and started a group of right wing meme pages and I met a lot of great people. Recently I went to Liverpool and I met up with one of them.
For you it might be better to meet people locally. Join a group about something local.
>tfw your original, innocent endeavor to watch women with big floppy tits hop on penises somehow turned into a homoerotic phallic infatuation
I can't understand half of what he writes it's not my fault damnit
How was meeting someone from the internet? Was he /fit ?
It was nice. He's a great guy. He was powerful from years of carpentry and he used to do martial arts but he was like maybe 20-25%bf. The best thing was having someone to hang out with and having someone who knows the place and can really show you around.
Once a month is """cheat day"""
Eat as I normally do, but buy a cold 1l Cola zero after workout (they say it's 4 calories). Serious question my brothers, will this ruin anything for me? I eat on a religiously strict nutrition plan 24/7, and train on a religiously strict program.
1l of coke kills minimum a month of gains
the sweetener shit they put into it fucks with your insulin and energy levels
you fucked up big time boy, might as well give up entirely
Oh boy... doing the number one mistake...
Good thing it's still in the fridge and only took a few sips.
Down the drain it goes.
