Is it possible to change your life around?

I wouldn't say a short amount of time, but you can start today

Change it around how? OK, times I have decided to reinvent myself.

>Age 14-16 completely unsuccessful with girls.
I was pretty fat and kind of hideous, my outlets were unpopular music before that really was a thing and computer games (like really boring simulations and 4x) and programming.

I stopped wearing everything except plain tshirts and jeans. Started circuit training whenever I took a break to make coffee or go to the toilet or do anything different and started to live on black coffee. I started to learn bass guitar and tried to join bands, eventually starting my own with the remnants of those that died out. I took up skateboarding and socialised with people on the street.

So previously I was a fat unfashionable kid who never left the house and within a few short years I had some friends and a band and I was stupid skinny and girls were actually attracted to me.

>Age 24, got kind of fat again and wanting to end a shitty LTR.
Took up swimming twice an hour after work. Cycled to work and back each day. Used this time to think about what I wanted. Started weight training and broke up leaving my ex with our house and moved in with an old university friend. Started online dating and hooking up. Suddenly realised that amongst my friends lots of women were down to fuck and I wasn't without options like I feared.

So now I was in arguably the best shape of my life, dating and having a great time and living with a really fun friend with a great social group and prior to that I couldn't see any way out of this relationship that had grown to consume everything.

>Age 26 decided to take work seriously and grow up.
I started doing some bullshit training here and there and realised that I wasn't utilising my degree. I started applying for jobs and internal roles with my current job and I started caring about work and applying myself. Within 3 years I was a regional manager and earning four times what I was earning at any point in my life so far. I bought a house.

>Age 32 decided that I didn't want to be a boring corporate shithead.
With most of the house paid off and very low outgoings I quit my job after getting a low level role in a start up in a field which had always been a hobby I loved. I took a big pay cut, but now I work with something I love in a job which is basically a lifestyle with really cool people and I look forward to and enjoy every single day because it is just like hanging out.

I've been putting the experiences in this new industry to use and well as networking and my salary is slowly climbing back up to what it was before, I'm now considering doing a MSc or PgDip so I can work higher up in this industry and hopefully be able to retire quite young or at least work far less hours in a senior consultant type role.

So that is like, my life story, but it has been characterised by periods where dissatisfaction prompted change and I set about a plan to accomplish this. It didn't take long for things to RADICALLY change once I'd started to take steps. Ending a relationship and moving out felt impossible, but literally within 6 weeks I was living in a new part of the city with different people and everything was rapidly becoming memories and past tense instead of immediately up close and personal all the time.
