    I am fine, thanks for asking buddy. No, I was just upset with myself for not making it to 3 days. I've made a 3 day streak running now, though, so I'm back. I usually come online at night, so that should give you a pretty good idea which time zone I'm in. I'm gonna be a prick and not give out...

    Hacking the Science of Habits - Advice Please!

    Yeah, you make a lot of excellent points - I'll take your advice on looking far enough ahead while planning habits, thanks very much for the detailed response.

    PMO-Free Commitment thread for December 2019! (aka DDD Don't Diddle December)

    First post ever. As my name might indicate, I want to make my life my own again - as it was when I was 15. I've been trying so hard for over two months to quit now, and I think I know why I'm failing. I can't do this alone. So I decided that every night I'm going to come here and take pride in...
