Picking up or removing a skill, tool or habit etc? Or learning about some new method to do things?
I think isomteric exercises(low intensity), especially neck exercises have been habe been good for me.
Quick ribbon shortcuts is another thing
Waiting until I’m sleepy to go to bed & sleeping until I wake up.
Yoga, it’s shocking how healthy that keeps me.
XLookup.
I quit Facebook in 2016. I got banned from Reddit last year. Both turned out to be big wins.
I lost 160 pounds over several years. I am looking forward to not dying as soon.
I am working on changing my gender. I am no longer hormonally inclined to use fear and anger to control my actions.
Literally just new game plus’ing it, now that you know all the strats

Yep, easily the secret to happiness. And non-alc beer tastes great nowadays!
Got a dog. Unconditional love, forced me to go walking in the fresh air twice a day.
The most basic advice doctors give is the most proficient: Sleep well, eat well, exercise regularly (not necessarily sports as that often damages joints), work on healthy relationships. Don’t drink, don’t smoke.
If you take that advice your quality of life will improve immensely. Just strive for it until it’s good habits.
Stopped listening to doctors and figured out by myself what’s wrong with me. It wasn’t GERD and the medication doctors made me eat, in increasing amouts, didn’t do shit. It was vagus-nerve oversensitivity and allergic reaction to uncooked allium family plants that caused an irritation in my esophagus.
it took decades, because allium allergy was really hard to spot and was skipped in all previous allergy screenings.
Second was degoogling myself. Ubuntu Touch in my phone is somewhat “work in progress” and rough around the edges, but I haven’t seen a single add in weeks.
What phone do you use? Which apps if any do you have to resort to using on Waydroid?

At present Waydroid is a must. I mostly need it for Meshtastic/Meshcore stuff, Airam programmable light and socket stuff, Proton apps and Lemmy browser.
Ubuntu native software base is still quite poor.
You can run most linux terminal and desktop apps, but if you can’t find them from the OpenStore(snap) and get them to work in the regular environments (missing dependencies or priviledges) and need to use libertine environment, they don’t run in the background and desktop apps will need external keyboard, because onscreen keyboard usually doesn’t work.
Thanks!
…and if your phone supports external display, you can use it as a linux laptop. Mine currently does not.
That sounds like a dream!
Getting to know who I actually am and what I actually want, and deliberately creating my life. Part of this was learning how I learn and work best.
Thank you. How did you learn them? Trying out things?
Any general advices on it?
It’s a personal journey. A big part of it is doing trial and error, and then seeing if the results get you what you need. It’s a slow process.
For me it involved pulling insights and principles that I obtained from journaling into an excel file and then identifying the patterns over a period of time. I didn’t need to try new things, I needed to process the things I’ve already done. I needed to process my life first. This created my foundation. Today I still do it but to a much smaller scale, and use life as feedback to make small adjustments to the foundation I created.
I recently bought earplugs to avoid being bothered by loud sounds and they work so well. I also use them while I sleep and I feel a big improvement in my rest.
Quitting Reddit.
dead lifts. i added them some years ago.
When my husband (a chef) and I (a decades long homecook) combined our kitchens when moving in together, It was magical.
It’s now my kitchen (hehe) but he had an immersion blender.
immersion blender changed my life.
Using an organization app like TickTick so I can keep track of things. Setting timers and reminders on my phone has also helped a lot.
