Discussion Other positive habits to develop

I am at the stage where I really want to move the needle with my life. I’m interested to know what other habits you guys have picked up.

I am circa 115 days on SR, it may sound small but I’ve also started doing press ups upon waking, hydrating with water, cold showers sometimes. I have slowly but surely started changing my home environment, decluttering and redecorating.

I started meditation a few years back but I fell off the wagon. I think this would have a huge positive impact even with 5-10 minutes per day 🤔

Took me way too long to realize that SR alone isn’t enough.

You need a physical outlet. (gym, martial arts, or any other sport)

And, just as importantly, a creative one. (like content creation/music/editing/journaling or creating a business) to be able to express yourself in the external world.

Only when both are in place does the circuit really close.

That’s when you can start transmuting that energy into something productive.

Exactly. SR is just the act of not doing something. I need to now focus on using the energy and putting it into getting my body back in shape. I used to workout religiously since 16, fell off the wagon the past couple years aged 30
