35 and Older Accountability Group

thank you bro, I wish I can describe how beautiful it is to be free, keep trying and you will get there

 

today I feel like a million bucks, for me this was a huge achievement I've done in a while , but that doesn't mean getting back to my old life and lower my guard, today I will be putting new set of standards that will make me strive to do more get more out of life. many look for the 90 days as the ultimate goal, while in fact in my opinion it's just the threshold for becoming a better person, because personal development never stops and we should always look for ways to develop ourselves.

 

thanks @artifact much appreciated

 

Thanks dude.

 

Cheers mate, think I might just take you up on that. Nice one

 

Just checking in. Think this site is going to help me. Basically rebooting after 3 months streak. Got a real hit of social anxiety and paranoia at my son's football game this morning. Tuesday and Wednesday evenings had to try extra hard as was travelling with work but made it through! I managed a good 3 - 4 months on my first attempt so now am using this site to help me get a bit longer streak.

 

build one at at time,

 

Still going ok, keeping busy and resisting urges

 

Steveal’s advice is good. I’ll add that a lot of this for me is discovering what works and what doesn’t for many behaviors (eating, pmo, obsessions, etc). I think meditation is very powerful but there are lots of other things you can add too. You’ll find many posts out there with advice so I’ll ignore that. This journey is about finding what works for you. Don’t get frustrated. Keep plugging along, take notes and make changes along the way. You’re going to fail and as long as you’re learning, you’re doing great.

 

congratulations BenC!

 

Seems like you’ve got a great base to jump in here. Thanks for joining.

 

face plants... day 1, today again.

 

Checking in. Stay strong

 

Still going strong here, feeling good

 

Fell off the wagon.

Lots of stress lately and I haven't been dealing with it well.

I feel like crap and I can't believe I'm back at day one again.

 

I may try that, thanks. My sleep hasn’t really been the same since the pandemic started, I blame work being busier and hard to get away for a holiday. Now even with 9 hours I don’t seem to feel rested anymore.

 

It’s great to be fairly close to work. Not just for the commute, but if something happens like an alarm goes off or some other emergency, and you need to get back, you have that peace of mind that you can.
