Thanks for the encouraging messages again everyone, Day 2: I didn't game today. Today I was already thinking about how "fun" gaming was. And that, I've tried to quit before, and this time I am familiar with that alluring quality of games. The moment I give in a little, it usually snowballs out of control. I had a free day today, and I didn't have any plans. It is the typical scenario where I previously relapsed. It's these do-nothing days that I hate the most. During the quiet times, it reminds me of how sad I am and how my life is not where I want it to be. Here's what I did in the spare time I had: - review the notes from the first few modules. To rehash and understand the lessons more. - I looked up various activities I could try out. - I read the book "models" by Mark manson. - I wanted to try, so I did an hour long hot yoga session. - Met with a friend for some dinner and socializing time. - found a substitute for coffee (i.e. Yerba Mate) which gives a kick, without the staining qualities of coffee. Overall not a bad day. Here's my plan tomorrow: - finish the next module "power on" - Gym day. - fill up my calendar with activities for the next two months (career things, socializing things, outdoor activities, events like concerts, and new things to try out) I am SOOOO GRATEFUL for getting this opportunity to try again at life. I have to constantly remind myself that this time is different. Because there's always that little voice in the background that reminds me of where I failed previously. Peace, Tatu
