Hello comrades and welcome to the fifth improvement megathread of September! bonfire

Only two more days until October, it's a good time to make some plans for the following month.

As usual, some discussion ideas:

  • Do you have any plans for October?
  • Do you want to share something you've done in the previous week? Everything counts, nothing is too small.
  • Do you have any goals or plans for next week?
  • 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

    Do you have any plans for October?

    My big plan for October is to do a game jam. Something small and get my foot in the waters of game development with others or in some form of "community". I want to continue to expand my skills and abilities with Godot and game programming and I need to challenge myself to force myself to grow.

    Do you want to share something you've done in the previous week? Everything counts, nothing is too small.

    I let go of some friends who were really not doin' shit. Not in the "they are content with their lives and are keeping it lowkey" but more so "yo you have been the same dude since we graduated high school, I can't rock with you anymore because I have changed a lot and you have not. You're the exact type of dude I don't want in my life and yeah man I don't think we can really be homies like that anymore because I don't respect people who don't grow". It was an emotional complex realization and conversation.

    Do you have any goals or plans for next week?

    Find a job/job hunting

    Do you have any streaks? For example, "sober for one day." Feel free to post your streak every day in this thread.

    I actually lost my streak of programming everyday but I'm building it back today. Day 1 again, this time with feeling. I am not deterred though. Losing some momentum happens in all endeavors, the key is to not stop. Slow down sure, even go in reverse sometimes in life hits you like that, but don't stop.
