Wow, that looks cool. I can't say anything when I run because my lung doesn't accept it. :0

Hang in there! It sounds like you're getting better!
I look like a bum... but anyway... I don't know much about this topic

Think about a new way to deal with compulsive websurfing. A new, and effective way.

The day before yesterday I spent a lot of time to cook paella, a Spanish dish. I didn't do it all right, but I'm glad I know what I need to improve on next time.
Good attitude! I really need to keep that in mind. As perfectionism was a major obstacle that made me try nothing in the past.

I also have lonely times, occasionally. Especially when I try to contact my friends but they are busy to answer me. During this moment I felt really down and couldn't focus really well. My solution was to find other people to replace my friends. It's not a ultimate solution, but it helps me endure those moments. I'm a kinda shy person, so I couldn't talk to some random people on the street, but the internet, is a great tool to talk to someone else that has similar interests. I could find some people that have the same interest as mine, so I talk to them whenever I want, particularly when my real friends are busy.
It also helps me to stay more focused during my study time. Because I can imagine there are some of my imaginary colleagues somewhere around Korea, struggling because of the same issues. And they also have failures and successes, so it's very interesting to watch them living their lives.
About other people's successes : I sometimes envy someone else's achievements, but there's no good thing envying. So I try to focus on what I do. I think the best way is just accepting and moving on. You're doing great. Let's see what grows in our gardens, not other successful people!
So hang in there! You're already doing great!

Good job! Keep up the good works!

Keep it up! I hope you finish your work soon!

Do you really want to change? Ask yourself this question. Not what your brain wants.
I feel the pain. The pain caused by wasted time. That's even worser than my physical pain. I feel that inside my head. Like bashing my head over a wall dozen times. The voice, he wants me to go back, to waste my life. I want a change. I want to be better version of myself. I want a freedom in my life. I am going to be responsible guy - not the one who is just a big failure. Past myself is gone - and it never comes back.
Are you sure that you're not wasting time?

Day 28
- I visited another city because of group consulting so I couldn't study a lot today. But one good thing is that I studied about 2.5 hours in a bus or during breaktime of group consulting. The Google Docs notes that I've been making these days are so good because I don't need to carry any books! I want to upload some of the contents in Wikipedia someday. Korean wikipedia is lack of users who are interested in engineering, so it'll be just my own encyclopedia. I may find someone who likes to make a beautiful articles with someone else. Who knows? For now, it's just my rough plan.
- I'm totally exhausted right now, and I need to sleep. I really did my best to study until I write this journal. Habitica makes me endure more easily because when I just want to stop trying and to get some rest, it reminds me of my party members who are going to take damage because of my justification.
- The blue graph is still good. over 4 hours.
I like this music. Good night! (or good morning or good afternoon or good evening!)
-
If you want to try one more time, try to beat the highest score. (21 days, is it right?)
My highest score is 45days and it's my second attempt. It's been 28 days.
Cam mentioned that it is recommended to do 90 days detox, if you're even considering gaming in moderation. It's up to you. You may find something more valuable during 90 days journey. I believe you'll figure out the right path.

I don't think I ever studied 6 hrs in college, even before finals. ?
The reason why I'm studying so hard is that I got multiple F in the spring semester. I need to catch up now that's why
Kinda desperate. I'm thinking this summer as a last chance to catch up. -
Day 27 was perfect! 6 hours of studying
- The blue graph is still above 4-5 hours. I have to visit another city on Monday, so I think it'll decrease unless I don't review my 'portable' Google Docs notes. My goal on Monday is studying more than 4 hours.

I have no clue about your new problem... Sorry about that..

Welcome! Good to see you.

He's a retired history teacher and we didn't shut up about history and politics and our life story for 3 hrs hehe.

Now I’m only doing three habits right now. Read at least 10 pages a day, 5 minutes of meditation or more and 2 Pomodoro’s worth of coding at least. Going to try the “don’t break chain method” and form an order for my habits.
Good strategy. Keep it up!

Wow your picture looks cool. I just downloaded and added it into my wallpaper collection of my laptop!
And it's very interesting to see those teapots. My mom is also like those things. Chinese tea!
I didn't know Kenya is one of the countries that makes tea.
This is a photo taken by my mother

Resuming reading after quitting gaming is tough. I was a.voracious bookworm when I was younger. But when I gamed, reading wasn't as fun but now that I've quit, I'm slowly reacquiring the habit.
This is mirroring my experience so far. I used to read at least a book a week for a while. Even for a period of time, I was reading a book a day. Now it takes forever to get through a single book.
Same with me.
Another reason why I don't read a lot like before is because I had been trying to read some complicated books compare to the books that I was reading when I was young. And as I grow up, I started to feel that I need to focus on some of the subjects, not various subjects. And the internet. It has some differences, but still I believe that I can read something useful on the internet, if I maintain critical perspective and choose carefully what to read. -
Good job! Keep it up!

Try something new and tiny things first. That's gonna be the key to the change.

Welcome back! We're here to help each other. I already had relapse and I can say it's not so bad if you can figure out how to deal with this more effectively. Try some new methods. There's a chance of failure if you try it in the same way, in my opinion. Upgrade your weapons, that'll explain the thing that I want to say.
I hope you have a good respawn!

Hey! I relapsed a few weeks ago, and I started 90 days again! I can be a good fellow! Welcome back. Let's make it happen this time.
