I don't use anything beyond a simple list (whichever platform is convenient at that time), but I hear that people generally like HabitRPG for all of the things you mentioned. The most common criticism I've read is that it's somewhat shallow and loses its charm quickly, but that it's still a functional system even without the novelty of its bells and whistles.

Maintaining a separate journal is also good for keeping you aware of progress and results. I think lots of people lose motivation because they can't see or appreciate the fruits of their labors, especially when results are incremental in nature. Setting aside two minutes before bed every night to write "here's what I got done today" can focus that lens a bit. It makes the progress toward your goals feel much more real.

On an unrelated note - I think journaling is good too, but I find myself getting carried away and writing too much, which ends up taking 40 minutes and then quitting. Haven't touched journal in probably 6 months and make an entry maybe once a year / every 6 months. I got to the point where I just track fitness progress in simple "squats 3x6 @ 470" or whatever.

I wish I kept track of other goals better, but fitness is so linear. I think that's why there are so many aps for it, as opposed to other goals.

My friend loves the shit out of HabitRPG, maybe I should try it.

Humility and...whatever word is the best opposite to laziness. "Get off your ass and do things as soon as you decide on a plan of action." That quality.

Life is rather simple to live on autopilot.

Holy shit, I am going to need to make you fags a template for this.

1. Sleep 7-9 hrs a day.
2. Start cutting sugar and junk food.
3. Exercise.
4. Practice good hygiene (brush teeth, keep showered, keep hair trimmed where it needs to be, etc)
5. Work or go to school and do what needs to be done. If you aren't doing those, you better be spending 8 hrs a day studying or working on your own things (MEANINGFUL thing).
6. Some OTHER thing after work for at least a hour a day. If you are trying to advance career, it could be studying for professional exam. Or It could be art. Or dance. Or a massage class. Or trading stock options.

I think this list is missing a reasonable dose of recreation. We'd all be better off focusing our complete energies on self-improvement but that's not how it goes. Fitting in with most people today means a healthy dose of goofing off. I think that's critical for being able to relate to others instead of coming off as some sort of holier-than-thou android. Also it invites the opportunity to explain common avenues of recreation. That's important for fitting in too. Lots of people in OP's shoes have gotten themselves involved in strange, niche entertainment that actually alienates them from others. They might not know how to enjoy the stuff that most others around them find fun.

It means you have a low coefficient of friction. It also means that you're an idiot for not knowing what "slick" actually means in this context.

>>16907518
no i get it it means "clever. but im really blunt and not clever at all so i just dont get it

It means your smooth in urban slang.
"You thought you were slick, but you fucked up"

>apathetic*

You're not apathetic.

Not sperging and raging does not make you apathetic.
You clearly care and put off. Apathetic dude would be like wut... Okay... Not even make a thread about it.

Just give her the dick one time and she'll shut up

Fucking internet acting up.

>>16907520
At the time she touched, or at most of conflicts, i'm apathetic. I simply do not care. It's not fear of reacting, i just ''don't feel like it'', feel like it isn't necessery. And she's fat and ugly as fuck. Probably has some STD since she was and is a slut (yes, an old slut). Also, if i don't sperg and rage, what would i do? I didn't even tell her to not touch me, i did nothing besides what i said i did. And the fact that i didn't do anything out of apatheticness bothers me more than if it was out of fear, and now i'm feeling disgusted like hell. I may even shower so i can ritual myself out of the sensation.

just make memories with that person, and good ones too. And it's cool if you're aloof, but you treat them special and that makes them feel special.

Just do stuff and enjoy things with them. So later on you have stories to tell with them in it.

Bonding is easy.

>the guy who makes everyone laugh
Don't make everyone laugh, make the person you're interested in laugh.

Get that person out of the group and spend some quality time with them

It doesn't save your history or cookies so if you share the computer nobody knows you were watching porn. It doesn't really stop tracking and all that garbage, just use some add-on for that.

Nope the internet used to be capable of incognito but since this fight over net nuetrality they want to govern it. When it should have never been mentioned before and left alone.

>>16907509
This.
The latest firefox actually removes some tracking in incognito, but it's not the right tool if you're worried about tracking.

The server has no way to know you're in incognito, so from that perspective its no less secure.

I hate dream romances :(

It's not so bad when you're in a relationship but when you're single, it just hurts

You're yearning for a woman so much that you fall for a woman in your dreams. That's expected.

The bigger problem here is how a dream can fool you to have an attachment, when severed it makes you feel shitty. You got attached to something and they disappeared and your distraught. This is the core of the problem.

What do you mean by sperging out in class?

>>16907445
speaking in public I guess, or just interacting with other students.

The downside to reading books for this stuff is that you start to act like a character in a book, whether fictional or supposedly realistic. The written word isn't enough for that. It's flat. You can't capture nuance and the details of context in textual descriptions. It's even hard to convey sufficient detail because details change from one circumstance to the next. I could tell you to use humor in uncomfortable situations, but which sort of humor is appropriate? Which situations call for humor and which are better served by silence? Rules of thumb only go so far.

Perhaps there are books out there on finding role models. That's probably the best approach anyway. In general it's good to take cues from the people around you and/or people you look up to. Act like others. I'm not saying you should literally become someone else. Just learn from the way they act.

Well Googling "note 3 demo mode" gave me a ton of results which seem applicable. I'd suggest using those.

Rooting may affect your ability to get repair service (unless you can "un-root" first) but it will have no impact on your ability to get cellular signal service (unless you're intentionally stupid and flash the wrong frequency band settings onto it).

Demo models are dummies with a preprogrammed set of options and a screen its a fake phone there isnt a gps a antenna or micro sd card. Its litterally a demonstation of how colorful the screen is and about how it feels in your hand.

are you sure? i was using it earlier just fine, and on my wifi i managed to use the GPS to get directions.
If so, was i jipped? I got a "refurbished" model off of Amazon.

If he isn't gay, then he is bisexual. Make him admit it and be happy.

>Wat do to keep him.
Maybe he is afraid of others finding truth about his orientation...
Maybe he just want normal family with children and other things...
Maybe he has no idea what he wants...

Ask him what he wants, not 4chan :-)

Ask him what he really wanted and see if that meshes with you. Maybe he just wanted to fuck a friend or have regular sex. Then fwb is OK right?

>>16907381
he has someone else

Do something that takes your mind off him. If he was an asshole to you, he is an ex for a good reason. Don't be weak.

they'll train you, you're not expected to know what to do right away and if you're doing something wrong they'll tell you

be prepared to hate your job and your life btw

Shit man, you wish you had some free time. If you have a free time, you clean up shit. Standard routine in all restaurant business - nothing to do = cleaning time.

>>16907361
I have sent proposals to many fast food places but this is the first ones that didn't tell me the first day will be training but instead an "evaluation" to see how well I do in the job

Taste that yummy steaming turd and you both will be happy.

Maybe you need to learn to appreciate it.

I don't want to shame anyone for what they're into or anything if they're not hurting other people, BUT a this is Fucking nasty bro I'm pretty open and accepting but if my girl was into poop like this I would just end it. I'd be like I'm sorry babe I love you but this is just too intense.

I don't really have any advice, but I'm in college and it's exactly the same for me. For my summer job I woke up at 6AM no problem, hangover and all. When it comes to college though I cannot wake up before 11AM and I, too, am most productive at night (midnight - 1AM is god tier productivity). When I do wake up I'm fucked until 2PM.

It's weird. I sometimes reset my schedule by pulling an all-nighter and then going to sleep quite early the next day. I always fall back into bad habits, though.

>>16907332
are you me?

Your sleep pattern usually changes with your age, this is normal

See https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chronotype

Unless it's causing you actual problems, don't worry about it

No one will risk bringing a slander suit against themselves by badmouthing a former employee. Even if they have nothing positive to say, they will at least confirm that you worked there during the stated time period. That's all your new employers expect anyway.

You're about to make a grave mistake by getting too hands-on with this. Stop. Do the simple and obvious thing: list your former job on your resume/CV and provide contact details as requested. That's it. Leave everything else and everyone else alone. It will be fine. The only way this is liable to go wrong is if you start fucking with it.

>>16907335
Okay, I can work with that, but what happens when an application specifically asks if I've ever been fired or resigned to avoid being fired?

A friend said to say that I resigned due to budgetary issues, but I'm not sure how that sounds.
