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 haven’t played a video game since new years, and I’m hoping I can make it stick. Last time I tried, mid last year, I went for a month, but picked up a stupid browser game out of curiousity and was back to the slop. I have to stop falling for the ‘Oh I’ll just check this out because person X said it’s fun’ trap and actually have alternatives to choose that I find fun.

    I’ve got other things to do lined up to replace g*ming this time but I haven’t quite started on them. (A friend sold me a cheapo electric keyboard, and my brother is encouraging me to grow mushrooms lol). It’s intimidating to be at the foot of a new hobby and not know where to start. I guess that’s why I fell back on games because idk I at least felt I was good at them.

    Thanks for making this thread.
