Talk about how it came up and how its improved your life/health for having done so
Removed almost all advertising from my life. About the only stuff i see now is just bill boards.
I despise advertising. I won’t sit through ads telling me I’m missing out, or my life would be much better if only I had x. How much of our lives is spent listening to someone try to convince us that we need some product? And somehow they’ve convinced us that wasting our time with their bullshit is ‘normal’. Being marketed to constantly is not normal.
As someone with ADHD I swear we should get a fucking disability exemption from ADs - that shit can completely derail my train of thought and noticeably reduces my ability to enjoy whatever it’s embedded in.
Looking back at cable? It was like an instant depression cycle where ADs kept me from ever actually getting into a show and deriving enjoyment. Instead, in my youth, I’d just veg and lose hours unfulfilled.
Starting to lift weights was the best decision I ever made and the best habit I’ve ever formed. Nagging aches and pains are basically a thing of the past. I’m way more useful, and my lower body, which was once withered and useless after a decade of working in an office, have been replaced with tree trunks and a dump-truck ass
A couple of the accessory benefits of this that in order to support my lifting progress I now eat way better, quit drinking and prioritize proper sleep. Overall it’s just been a huge increase in quality of life
Drinking less. I saw an unflattering photo of myself and then decided to cut my alcohol consumption in half. It’s been a couple years and I look and feel a lot better.
Going to the gym first time. I am 35, sitting behind my pc since i was 10. After going out and training for several months now my back doesn’t hurt anymore, so i recommend :)
Spending that extra bit on high quality food and ditching the addictive high carb and salt American shit I was raised on. Having lived in NA and Europe for some reason American frozen food is allowed to be absolutely atrocious for you and it ends up costing a lot more money in health issues than just “springing” for fresh shit.
