In the eye
Isn't what people do with vodka?

Right to left or left to right?

Right to left. Movin it onto the other side frees up arm space for beer/snacks so I wouldn't have to stretch so much getting them from the table, but it adds the inconvenience of having to pick up the remote on the left then switching it over to the right hand side then back again.
 
Gonna get a new job, one that actually doesn't bring me to put a gun in my mouth everytime I come home from it.
Gonna get my molar out.
 
- Finish writing my short story
- Draw a manga one shot
- Buy a PS4

What is your short story about?

I've been working on another fantasy novel for a long time, but the writing is slow and I keep getting depressed over my own writing. I have bad self esteem and these chapters are never good enough.
 
I injured my back this year and was on some steroid until it got better. Gained 15 pounds. I will be losing 20-30 pounds from jan 1-Mar 1.

I also have spent a few years converting my game The Sea of Glomp from AS2 to AS3 to C# and it's time to finish so i can move on to other things.
 
What is your short story about?

I've been working on another fantasy novel for a long time, but the writing is slow and I keep getting depressed over my own writing. I have bad self esteem and these chapters are never good enough.
It's about two individuals with unique talents, a man and a woman, hired to deal with a rising band of mercenaries that have claimed control of a town. It's a straightforward, action-packed story of ancient magic being used and abused.

It's totally normal to feel like your writing isn't good, I myself feel that way often. It also takes courage to get something out there as you don't feel confident enough in what you wrote. However, don't let that stop you. Embrace the suck like they say. Keep writing and editing until you reach the point where it's good enough (your novel will never be 100% perfect and that's okay). Seek out an editor if you can afford them because they will help you improve. Personally I struggle a lot with prose since English is my third language: I spend a lot of time searching for the right words which slows down my writing pace even more. But I found that reading helps me build my vocabulary (I'm suprised at how many words are totally absent from nonfiction).
 
Treat my Internet use like intermittent fasting, and limit browsing to specific hours. No more getting upset over outrageous headline of the day, as soon as I wake up
 
Same here. The world would be so much better if everyone could just get on our level.
The funny thing is it's not even that hard and takes very little effort, just continue to do the same things you used to do before Jan 1 came around.

Boom, you win.
 
Resolutions are a waste of time.

Reminding yourself of what you should do once a year Is a waste of time.

It's about being consistent. If you want to achieve something, start now rather than waiting for new year's eve.

I hope I'm not pouring cold water on everyone. =p

What I was going to do in 2019.
got blindsided by the death of my Dad.
I feel like I'm out the funk now. So get my head out my ass as it were and back on track.

I'm also thinking of doing some no spend days/weeks/Months

with a few exceptions. Food, travel are excluded. But things like random spending etc I will try and knock on the head.
 
I have adhd to. How you gonna tackle it ?

nowadays I realized that I couldn't fight it alone, so asks my close coworkers and family to reminding me taking my medication that I always forget and helps me on routines that I struggled into

also this month I will try to consult with psychologist and want to try CBT, hope it will leads me to better habit
 
My resolution was to not make any resolution this year, so this will be the first year I actually keep mine.

.....









Fuck
 
So far each morning I either do a 25 minute cardio from biggest loser on youtube (at the moment it's a beginners level) or 18 minute resistance band training. ( i found one on YouTube. Also lol)
Or push ups, squats, bridges flutter kicks Russian twists and lunges. Just working on upping the amount I do. Currently I'm on 20 of each.

i do a day of rest. I try and keep it steady maybe break a little sweat but im keeping it steady.

I don't want to get beast ripped just get slimmer do you think doing this will help ?
I am also making sure I cut down on fried food. Fast food etc. Even before this I ate a heap of veg and fruit. Sugar is the hardest one to cut out.

plus I try to hit 5000 steps minimum or go for 10k plus a day.

Next I plan to add 15-20 mins of language study a day. Plus meditation
