Different OP here. It may be a placebo, but don't meme it till you try it. When I shower, I normally heat, wash, once all clean, I drop down to cold, for about 30 seconds all over and I feel awake and completely alert. 10/10 would recommend

We had no hot water in our dorm for a few weeks, they were the worst weeks in my entire life.

Anyone who has had sleeping issues here? How do you, on mornings when nothing urgent is going on immediately, manage to motivate yourself to get out of bed when the alarm rings? I just autopilot myself back into bed unless cats or neighbors wake me up

make way for the ubermensch.

let's have a paragraph from your autobiography.

>>35536327
Cut down on my racism, blasphemes, swearing, and insults. It's not all gone, just in smaller doses
Started being nicer to people
Stopped drinking so much pop
Stop playing as much games but that isn't by choice, just less drive to
Actively trying to get rid of this one wart which I kind of just ignored for a couple years
Stopped hitting my dogs
This isn't recent, but I stopped hitting people
And finally learned how to grip n rip a phonebook the hard way as well as roll a frying pan but that was more just doing it
And started lifting 2 months ago
I also started crying again but that was the reason this whole started (along with of course a girl)

I think that's about it. I'm trying to become a better person. I've nigh given up on the girl but I still feel better about myself so hopefully something comes along

nice samefagging to add to your lying first post

>>35536327
I'm trying to quit computer games
I've gone cold turkey from playing 30+hours a week
It's tough. But it's going to be the first in a course of life changing choices

>>35543185

second poster here, I wasn't samefagging--that was meant as irony via Nietzsche (see OP).

Just look for "box row" on amazon.com and sort by books. If you dont have a kindle you can download a kindle app

sit up.
As soon as the alarm goes off, sit up totally vertical.
If you don't do it one morning then beat yourself up about it.
At some point it becomes reflexive.
