Hi comrades and welcome to the second improvement megathread of March!

As usual, some discussion ideas:

  • Do you want to share something you've done in the previous week? Everything counts, nothing is too small.
  • What would you like to do next week?
  • Which aspect are you currently focused on improving?
  • Do you have any streaks? For example, "sober for one day." Feel free to post your streak every day in this thread.
  • If you don't have a continuous streak, did you manage to abstain from something for a day or more?
  • Did you come across some useful information or resource that might help others?

Good luck with your goals! unity

i feel like such a loser right now.

i did practice for an hour and thirty minutes last night and i got so cranky afterwards, i think i burn a lot of energy practicing.

I've been losing sleep to go have sex and then not practicing enough because I'm tired. Gotta get my priorities straight. "We're all looking for the person who has done this!" who-did-this

We can do this! Let's limit our discretionary entertainment time so that it doesn't ruin the practice routine!

I made a bunch of new contacts at a gig last night though, so there's that.

Also, my workout routine is making my ADHD meds actually work properly, and I'm crossing shit off my to do list like crazy.

That's okay, sometimes in life you simply have to say to hell with practice and become consumed by a 70-hour JRPG masterpiece. After that experience, you will return even stronger anti-shinra-action

Self Improvement

285 readers
34 users here now

A community which focusses on improving yourself. This can be in many different ways - from improving physical health or appearance, to improving mental health, creating better habits, overcoming addictions, etc.

While material circumstances beyond our control do govern much of our daily lives, people do have agency and choices to make, whether that is as "simple" as disciplining yourself to not doomscroll, to as complex as recreating yourself to have many different hobbies and habits.

This is not a place where all we do is talk about improving "productivity" (in a workplace context) and similar terms and harmful lifestyles like "grindset". Self-improvement here is intended to make you a generally better and happier person, as well as a better communist, and any other roles you may have in your life.

Rules and guidelines:

  1. Posts should be about self-improvement. This is obviously a wide category, and can range from advice, to finding resources, to self-posts about needing to improve in a certain area, or how you have improved, and many other things.

  1. Use content warnings when discussing difficult subjects.

  1. Do not make medical decisions solely because of a discussion you have had with any person here (e.g. whether to take or not take medications; diagnoses; etc.) as we do not vet people. All medical problems should be discussed with a real-life medical professional.

  1. Do not post harmful advice here. If this is seen, then please report it and we shall remove it. If you are unsure about whether it's precisely harmful advice or not but feel uneasy about it, please report it anyway.

  1. Do not insult other users and their lifestyles or their habits (unless they ask, I suppose). This is a place for self-improvement. Critique and discussion about a course of action is encouraged over shit-flinging. Don't talk down to people.
