How have you improved yourself this week/month/year? Lifting isn't life, a well-balanced human being is productive, has hobbies, pushes him/herself to succeed, is charismatic, and strives to live the best life they can. Share your successes, failures, methods, and everything in between.
The sticky is divided like so: >Recommended Readings. >Some tips to get your life back on track. >Study and Career. >To-do list habit.rpg (If you’re TOTALLY Lost. Start with this one) >Focus and meditation >Finance
Basic Recommendations: >Have a productivity Framework that is flexible. A mindset that gets you going. >Use a calendar, like google calendar. Hours and shit for things YOU WILL DO. >Learn to focus. >Meditate. >Do routines for things you should do periodically/daily, this should cover daily things or weekly chores such as laundry, cleaning, shopping. >Identify and Eliminate conflicts within yourself. >Focus on identifying the time wasters in your life and eliminate them. >Focus on the essentials. If you try to do everything at once you’ll burnout. Little by little.

I'm unironically quitting PMO. Porn is a drug and is designed to be one. It's evil and I'm glad to be free from its clutches. There are literally no benefits to fapping and every time you do, it gets easier to rationalize spending time and energy on destroying your reward circuits the next time It is an addiction bros, by definition. You gotta kick the addictions. It's essential to be the best you can be
People frequently shit all over those threads too. You are not special, just retarded. Fuck off.

What are your guys opinions on visualization, affirmations and LOA for making more money. Obviously the work is most important, but can these things really help?
Jace Hall
fug me no, I was out of my home for a whole week which was the last time I posted in a /sig/ thread
Aaron Campbell
if you do already just tell me the changes, i won't arse myself re-downloading everything and looking for the interesting bits

Anything on anger? Have huge anger issues that I can't let go.
I could use some /sig/ advice, if anyone is willing.
>Moved in with parents back in July, with my wife and kid >Goal was to save to buy a house >Have around $70k saved now, but recently lost some contracts so my weekly income is pretty low ATM >Slowly approaching 1 year at my parents >Want to buy something, real estate prices are high as fuck >Willing to rent, but rents are even more than a mortgage >Income has dropped so I would barely be able to save if we rent
I'm 27 and lived on my own from 19 up until July when I moved in here. I work remote and have found myself very depressed being here, it was fine at first but now it's very routine and sad to me.
I want to make the best long-term move; saving money has been great but I'm not sure it's worth the depression I experience. What do you guys think I should do here?

Wait a little to see how coronavirus affects the housing market. Mortgages are beginning to get cheaper in response for it. Give it atleast another two weeks and keep a close eye on how the market changes.

Take it from someone who grew up in my dad's parents house. Move the fuck out as soon a possible. It broke my parents marriage. My dad doesn't support me moving out until i get a masters degree, with a caveat that he will help pay for my rent or help me buy a place if i get serious enough with a girl to live together. He knows firsthand what living with your parents does to a relationship. The most important thing you can buy with money is some freedom.
Christian Walker
Yes.
If you hang out with any high-performance individual (military SF, pro athletes, entredpeneurs, etc.) You eventually realize that cannot conceive of their own failure. It's not arrogance or ego, its that, for some reason, they've developed a 'reality sphere' where they succeed. They KNOW that they'll win, and that drives them to actually do sdo.
I have no idea whether this is delusion, or psychology, or discipline, or 'magick' or whatever, but affirmations, LOA, visualization, and other mental tricks are how you train yourself to achieve that mindset.
have hit a temporary low, didnt even go to the gym yesterday as I should. fucked up sleep schedule is always one of the hardest things to fix and it really affects your health, strength and energy in a big way

Buy land. Live in a tent on said land and start building your own house.
Isaac Myers
In my late 20's, recently stopped eating pre cooked zog foods, hot pockets, packaged ramen etc. start to drink water amd eat fruits, clementines, apples along with a bit of baked beans, had some meat last night.
Body feels fucked up now, weird kindey shake was going on, got worried, my gut bacteria is probably revolting against me, thankfully it's going away now. Started walking for a hour or so a day, no gym near me anymore, it closed down.
How do I keep moving foward /sig/? I want to around for my kid. 270 pounds isn't good and I gotta lose it for him and my wife.
Decent start user. Try finding some used weights online, in my late 20's aswell and started a few months ago. You won't lose alot of weight by just walking and drinking water.
Also it sounds like your body isn't used to healthy foods at all, vegans have that kind of shit happen when they eat meat aswell.
Eat nuts, fruits and meat but not alot, I know some user around here probably has a guide for guys like you. I don't sadly.
Justin Gonzalez
This is a good start, user. Happy to hear your diets improved and you’ve started walking and all that. I advise you start doing some very basic exercises at home, too, like push-ups, squats, and crunches/sit ups.
>270 pounds isn't good and I gotta lose it for him and my wife. is your wife overweight as well? if so then be careful and ensure that she doesnt sabotage your gains. ive seen this shit with my own eyes. if you are bettering yourself while she is not then she will intentionally/subconsciously try to thwart your attractiveness in fear of losing you.
Jackson Wright
I'll probably get some blueberries soon, they have alot of health benifits and actually taste great from what I remember as a kid.
And wnat nuts do you reccomend, assumimg salted shit is a no-go Checking around for used sets online right now but I'll get on such She's 110, nowhere near fat. In fact she's pushing to do more.
Andrew Ortiz
10/10 start but get a hobby user, don't play video games either, try art, it can create brain cells for you along with other activites for brain health. I'll also reccomend meditation, it sounds like kike shit but it helps calm your mind really.
Connor Torres
>Acting this tough >On a dis-identified Bhutanese Covid19 Discussion Forum Calm down. Other people trying to better themselves doesn’t take anything away from you. Getting mad about it is like drinking poison and expecting someone else to die from it.

Training at my new job starts today, I’m nervous but also excited.

what kind of job user?
Nathaniel Cox
oi lads. how are you guys handling coronachan? i was making some decent gains the last few months. i even abstained from the internet for a while. but this coronachan thing has led me down some rabbit holes on the internet lately. i dont know if i should take it seriously or if its flow in the park fear mongering. what do you think?
I’ve been working at a pharmacy and got hired at a cafe. Pharmacy retail is in a downward spiral so I finally took the courage to jump ship, and landed this on my first interview.
Levi Richardson
You're probably going to get the corona virus. Probably a lot of people are. If you're sickly or old you might even die, but probably not. You might even think you just have the flu for a couple weeks. It's not some magical new plague upon us; it's a literal virus, thousands of which are currently circulating through the populace. Remember SARS? Swine flu? Was the panic worth it?
Literally thousands of African kids die per day from things you don't remotely worry about, and do you give a shit about them?
Jayden Wood
ok thanks for talking some sense into me. im a healthy young male. I remember SARS, Swine Flu. I wasn't even panicking bc I didn't have internet to monger me. You're right. Thanks bro.
Carson Ross
Is it dangerous to eat 600 calories a day and workout?
Henry Rivera
yes if you're lifting. there's no way you're getting enough protein. you will lose muscle and are likely to have an injury.
Christian Torres
why are you only eating 600 calories a day? minimum is 1200 for a healthy male my dude.
Jace Butler
Your body will act weird for the first month of your diet at the minimum user, don't get spooked. I had a similar experince to yours years ago. Even crappd a bit of blood, if you haven't eaten healthy in a while as you say your body is already trying to detox, you should in the beginning expect to either shit a lot or get constipated, bloat, put on water weight, maybe even puke a bit depending on how your body decides to punish you from taking away the zog food.
Nathaniel Rogers
not the same user, but holy shit. i didnt realize the blood in my shit was from a change in diet until just now. wew lad.
Jordan Gutierrez
Yea it can happen, you can put stress on your kindeys at first as well since they aren't used to your new routine. If you get a funny shake in your side at some point it's due to the sudden changes your making.
Yep user, getting alot of fiber really fast can cause infamitory bowels if your a slob. The human body is a pain in the ass to take care of. Get some Horse Chestnut if your having it.
We allow these again? Anyway set up Anki today to keep your second/third language on track.
Hudson Rogers
How do I get used to the taste of fruits and vegetables? I really don't like fruits but I'm more open to vegetables,the only the vegetable I like is corn.
