10/207 Corporate job has its benefits as well as downside. I have been finding very difficult to drag myself to work for past few days. Paycheck at the end of every month had made me stagnant. It might sound ridiculous to most people, but I don't care working for the same people where you are just a resource. It was too late to make a move. But better late than never. I have made up my mind, I am not going to work on the same dead end job. I could not force myself to love my job and this is the reason I could not reach my full potential I would say. I don't see much in store for me. So I am moving on and submitted my resignation today. Wish me good luck on the journey ahead.
The key to improving is to learn from your mistakes. Retrace your steps. What led you to relapse this last time? There is always an underlying issue or trigger that leads you down the PMO path. Maybe it’s stress, maybe it’s loneliness, maybe it’s exhaustion. Whatever it is, your brain wants to escape that uncomfortable situation and give itself a dose of dopamine. PMO is a simple way to do that. So once you find that underlying problem (could be multiple problems), you find healthier ways of dealing with those problems. Once you’re able to do that, you will be able to get past 15 days. If you want to get rid of a bad PMO habit, you have to recognize what is leading you to it, what you can do to change, and then change. The difficult part is discovering what your triggers are. Once you discover them, you can do something about them. Sometimes it helps to talk to a therapist to discover what those triggers are.
Got to 106/41. 0/106. I took my streak for granted. I got nonchalant, indifferent, I didn’t take it serious anymore.
Sorry to hear it man. Get right back on the path and hold on to the control of your life that you're developing. Congrats on your epic effort of beating and surpassing your streak by so much. Here's to an even better one!
