Hi comrades, welcome to the Improvement Megathread! unity

I plan to post a new weekly megathread here every Sunday. I think Sunday is a good day to review the previous week and make some plans for the following week. If somebody else wants to post a new megathread anytime, just let me know.

Here are some ideas for discussion:

  • Do you want to share something you've done in the previous week?

Even if you did only 1 push-up, read 1 page, meditated for 1 minute, or touched 1 blade of grass, let us know about it. When it comes to making progress, everything counts. The most important thing is to make progress, no matter how small.

  • What would you like to do next week?
  • What aspect of life would you like to improve?
  • 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?

Of course, this is not a definitive list. And feel free to make a separate post in the comm for any of these topics. This is just a megathread for all the stuff that you want to share but don't feel like making a new post.

Let me know if you have any suggestions.

    I finally begin to lift weights and am happy with the improvement even if I am very sore 😅 It feels good to know that progress is being made. I am also hoping to practice swimming more so I can have better cardio and resistance for that.

      Awesome! Lifting weights is one of the most satisfying forms of exercise imo, lifting is hard but doesn't last too long and feels really good when you're finished, and its easy to track how far you've come when you notice you can do more reps. And increasing the weights you lift is such a good, satisfying feeling.

      Swimming is also awesome, its one of the only forms of cardio I can stand. It gets kinda boring for me but I do take it pretty slow
