2022/04/21 ( Big change starts with baby steps)

 When I was in my third years in college, I had an acute depression. I needed a method to cure my depression. I decided to make a lot of changes in my life. I realized that what I am doing everyday will makes me get the same results. I realized that if I need to get a different results, I need to make different actions. I was fed up with my situation and very frustrated with my life. I decided to go very extreme in my actions to really make change in my life. 

First of all, I decided to stop hanging out with all my friends and stopped spending time with my family. I stopped watching movies, playing video games, Soccer and so on. I realized that in order for me to have time to do the needed actions to make real change, I need to free up all my time. 

Secondly, I decided to concentrate only on one small goal. I was working on many goals but I only cared about achieving one goal. Once I achieve my small goal, I will go to the next one. My first small goals were very simple. Waking up at 5 am. Stop using social media. Stop playing anything. I just wanted to break my old habits and free up all my time so I can spend all my time to study. I started concentrating on waking up at 5 am for as long as it need until I make it habit. 


Next was concentrating on bigger goal. I started to run for 5 Km every day after waking up at 5 am. Then, I started to spend my breaks between classes to do journaling. I used to spend around 1 hour journaling everyday. I also started spending around 6-8 hours just for studying everyday and even in the weekend (except for Friday 3-4 hours). Even in the holidays I was studying every day because I didn't want to stop the momentum. I had to do what I had to do.

Poison Positivity

 When I was in my third year in college, I had an acute depression. I had very bad grades and I had a lot of family problems. Starting from 2018, I decided to listen and read about self-development. I immersed myself in this world and I replaced my negativity with positivity. I literally brainwashed my brain. After I have have solved my depression problem completely, I started looking unsatisfied on many self-development post. I realized that often time, being optimistic is just a way of escaping the brutal truth. It is actually will make you less happy instead of more happy. Even too much positivity is bad for you. 

2022/04/30 (The Power of 30 Days Challenge )

 Yesterday I was watching videos in YouTube about Fitness. I started watching one video after the other. I watched a video about an interesting work out that sticked in my mind. The video maker explained how much he is interested in trying famous Hollywood actors work out. He was talking about King Arthur movie and how the actor have shredded body. His work out was basically punching the air 1000 times every day for 3 months. This guy decided to try this work out for 30 days. He inspired me to try doing this work out. But he also made me think deeply about how much powerful 30 days challenge is. It will makes you able to build up habits that will help you make progress in your goal. You need to implement habits into your lifestyle to make real progress in your goals.  Actually, without having specific goal, you will get lost. Having a 30 days challenge is pretty good strategy to achieve your goals. Because sometime when you want to gain a skill, you starts to make random actio...
