Hi comrades and welcome to the second weekly improvement megathread!

I am glad to see that there was a lot of engagement in the first megathread and that people were checking in throughout the week.

Same as the last week, here are some ideas for discussion:

  • 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?
  • 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?

Good luck to everybody with your goals! unity

    Deciding on one big thing per day is a great system. I have come to the same conclusion after trying to be super productive all the time.

    Being a wage slave and trying to get shit done after work can quickly get overwhelming. That's because time and energy are very limited and the things we "should" be doing are infinite. And even if you manage to be super productive, it's not very rewarding in itself. So it's very easy to burn out. I'm trying to build a consistent, balanced and sustainable routine where I can get shit done without going insane.

    Btw I think you might find this interesting, it's a quick self-compassion test that I think everybody in the world should take
