    Hi all,

    So, today I'd like to hear about peoples general struggles. Are you struggling a lot? In what ways do you struggle? from the minor struggles of not hoovering the floor (even though it niggles you every time you look down at the rising dirt levels), to finding greater consistency in your life?

    I'm curious because I find I struggle a lot. I have a daily routine set out which I partially follow. I just re-wrote it out yesterday and posted the list in a place I would see it, and I did, but still, I've not completed everything on the list.

    So, I'm wondering is it because I lack discipline, or is there something deeper going on? Maybe I just don't really value everything on the list. Am I not living a fully actualised life because of laziness, or is this resistance an expression of self-sabotage?

    So, in what ways do you struggle, why do you think you struggle and what have you done to work at overcoming your struggles? Also, who has championed their struggles and how did you do it?

  2. I struggle with laziness a lot, I’d rather stay home and do nothing all day honestly. I want to say willpower is the key and it is important but also you have to be in the right state of mind, honestly it all goes hand in hand, you must be in the mindset where you are willing to change and you need willpower to carry that out, building discipline is important also because you need it to form and maintain a habit which takes 21 days they say.

    I'm really only "struggling" with burnout at the moment with school, but that'll be over soon. Otherwise life is pretty great, challenges and all.

    Struggling to develop a sense of security around my self esteem. There was a time when I was so content with who I was that I didn't use to spend hours looking at the mirror.

    I don't know what went wrong and if this deteriorating spiral of addiction to porn played a role in this, but things have changed. I feel conscious and insecure about my looks, and I constantly feel myself struggling to accept myself the way I am.

    Take care.
