This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

  1. Take a 30 minute walk every day regardless of weather.
  2. Take three months off from video games. The first three weeks will suck. Remind yourself several times a day that this is for something possibly better.
  3. Don't linger on your past mistakes beyond a reminder of where you don't want to be. Buildingg your character is a path filled with wrong turns and mistakes. The best we can do limit the effects of those mistakes based on our setup. ... Build character like you would in a rogue like if that's helpful
  4. Develop emotional awareness and intelligence. That's a book and a skill.
  5. Talk to people with the respect you want to receive.
  6. Accept the parts of yourself you can't change. You're 5' 3". Stand tall and own your space.

Shittles... I need to do some of this stuff myself. Ha!

Not gonna lie, developing oneself around instant gratification and easy disponibility to make it easier for the next guy after you is surely a hell of an advice

Taking a devil may cry attitude has been particularly therapeutic, though not curative, for my sanguine disposition. People stuck in ruts need not fear if the next guy is just you again. I sort think there's a responsibilty to that next person, set up your runs well, have fun, and grind hard. Maybe there's instant gratification I there, but my mind doesn't feel that.
