Self Improvement

A community which focusses on improving yourself. This can be in many different ways - from improving physical health or appearance, to improving mental health, creating better habits, overcoming addictions, etc.
While material circumstances beyond our control do govern much of our daily lives, people do have agency and choices to make, whether that is as "simple" as disciplining yourself to not doomscroll, to as complex as recreating yourself to have many different hobbies and habits.
This is not a place where all we do is talk about improving "productivity" (in a workplace context) and similar terms and harmful lifestyles like "grindset". Self-improvement here is intended to make you a generally better and happier person, as well as a better communist, and any other roles you may have in your life.
Rules and guidelines:
- Posts should be about self-improvement. This is obviously a wide category, and can range from advice, to finding resources, to self-posts about needing to improve in a certain area, or how you have improved, and many other things.
- Use content warnings when discussing difficult subjects.
- Do not make medical decisions solely because of a discussion you have had with any person here (e.g. whether to take or not take medications; diagnoses; etc.) as we do not vet people. All medical problems should be discussed with a real-life medical professional.
- Do not post harmful advice here. If this is seen, then please report it and we shall remove it. If you are unsure about whether it's precisely harmful advice or not but feel uneasy about it, please report it anyway.
- Do not insult other users and their lifestyles or their habits (unless they ask, I suppose). This is a place for self-improvement. Critique and discussion about a course of action is encouraged over shit-flinging. Don't talk down to people.

It's gonna be the middle of the month soon, it's a good time to review our progress and remind ourselves of the goals for this month.
Few days of training left and I think I'm doing good, I've never missed a day or anything and I been keeping on my tests. After this I promised I'd help someone out with their epa license while I apply for jobs. Really hoping I find something if not the union option is there. My foot also has been recovering so I'll head back to the gym on the weekend, first cardio then strength training.
I also intend to continue my studies to further improve my hvac skills, wanna get my NATE cert so studying all I can to pass it and some specialties. Self study is tough but I'm gonna do what I can as much as I can. If I got a slump in not finding work immediately then I'll keep studying on my own.
