Biggest improvements I noticed were moving to a better network and exercise.

I sometimes get frustrated with constant emails so I stop answering ones that are like a debate. After 3 days of no input people realize you're done talking and will be willing to bring it to the "how do we fix this" stage and stop worrying so much about how it makes them look.

Wash your face after the gym, the handsoap in the bathroom is better than nothing.
Don't put that on me Ricky Bobby, don't you ever put that on me.

Running a few times a week. Still hate it, but I find it very rewarding once I hit a goal of so many miles or improving a time on an old run.
Being anti-2nd Amendment is like saying "We have too many rights, please take some away!"

Exercising consistently, even when I don't want to. Never regret it.

Choosing to keep on looking at the bright side or optimistic side of everything I can. Even if it's naive at times. Living happy helps to breed happy.

Identifying when a bad mood erupts. Hint: 9 times out of 10 it's because I'm too focused on a bad topic for too long. Change your thoughts and activities to something positive or at least neutral for even longer than you've spent dwelling on the negativity.

Believing in Jesus Christ and serving Him. Start praying. It completely changed my life. If you don't believe pray "Lord I believe, help my unbelief"

Jesus tells us that faith the size of a mustard seed can move mountains.

Well I used to drink alcohol every day. Stopped that years ago. I still have liver damage, but stopped potentially getting Cirrhosis. My next goal is stop drinking so many energy drinks.

Many things that I've probably shared here before.

Learning new things regularly
Developing and honing skills
Questioning everything and thinking critically and not in absolutes
Emotional reasoning skills, catching myself and critiquing the way I feel, and not going right from feelings to behaviour
Trying to be helpful to others and non-judgmental
Assertiveness and not aggressiveness or passivity

That's a few. Nice thread, OP
*Look at reflection in car window and flex every time crew*
*Use half the roll to wipe after a poo crew*
*Fart in the gym and blame rotten smell on faulty ventilation crew*
*Fart at home and blame it on the dog crew*
*Watch neutron-star density poop mock me as water flushes around it and it stays put crew*
*Drive 2 minutes in the summer and back of shirt gets completely wet crew*
*Coffee black as midnight on a moonless night crew*
*Fat shame my cat on a daily basis crew*

absolutely agree with these things. Glad getting older gave me the same insights
“Peace does not mean an absence of conflicts; differences will always be there. Peace means solving these differences through peaceful means; through dialogue, education, knowledge; and through humane ways.”
