When it seems like your life is spiraling out of control...

I walk around town for hours, maybe sit somewhere with a good view when I get tired.

The following post is probably most useful for men:

 

 

This is the first thing I do:

 

 

Fix it.

 

 

 

 

1. Recognize how big you've screwed up.

Do you have what you need to survive? Have you failed at school? Experimented to much with drugs? Lost a job? Living at home?

 

2. Decide what you want, and how you want to be, and memorize it / write it down

This means: Do you want a big house? A fancy car, girlfriend(s), wife, children? Good economy? Education? Muscles? etc

 

 

3. How you get it is simple:

 

Self-discipline

 

 

4. Man the f*** up! Take control of your life, and start fixing every bit that's not ideal - RIGHT AWAY! (every tiny bit, if it's not perfect, then it's not good enough). Be a testament to self-discipline!

 

 

 

 

How you fix it:

 

1. Make a prioritized list of things that needs to be fixed.

2. Do it! As quickly as possible, and make sure you clearly mark out every thing that has been done, with ONE line. So that you can read it, and know you have accomplished one of the things that needed to be fixed.

 

 

Do however realize that certain things has to be done every single day, and is ALWAYS prioritized over everything else. ALWAYS!

 

1. Food & Sleep

 

Eating regularily. Atleast 4 meals a day. Breakfast, Lunch, Dinner, and 4 hours before bed. (Not 15 minutes later, although 30-60 minutes earlier is accepted)

 

Always sleep 8 hours, or sleep 7 and rest 1. You go to bed at the same time, every f***ing night. Exceptions is either friday or saturday.

 

 

By eating and sleeping well, you will always have the feeling of being Well Rested, and prepared for anything. A f***ing freight train!

 

 

 

Another pro-tip:

 

Honesty. I'm always completely honest, that includes having sex with girls. I always tell them straight upfront that I'm not interested in a girlfriend, BEFORE sex. So that she doesn't invest too many feelings. I like people, and people deserve honesty, always. And probably think you for telling them, that's pretty much worst case scenario.

 

 

 

 

It is possible, I'm doing it.

Self-esteem: Like A Boss

 

1 ) I see where your getting that big boost on self esteem.

2 ) 'Like a Boss' should be changed into "Like a King!" :laugh:

3 ) Agreed, a heathy body and mind's very important.

Wait until night, then I put on my trenchcoat (if winter) and walk my dog up to the top of the volcano in my town (Its inactive now, but a volcano nonetheless) and just stand, look over the town and the lights, and take a few deep breaths, and think about it.

 

What is the problem? Why has it happened? Who else did it happen to? That sort of stuff.
