Surgery means he ' s out for at least two months . 😂 <| sep |> And we birthed rpizzagate which will definitely get bunches and bunches of attention that I ' m sure eventually will produce results . <| sep |> 7 habits of highly effective people is a selphelp book I personally like for motivation and tips on planning . It is important that you have a long term goal in mind because then you can make sure all of the daily micro goals you set for yourself are in line with what truly drives you . The best advice I think I could give would be to have a plan for your full day and record what you actually did then review it at night . I find that it brings change around quicker if every night before bed you have to notice that your day consisted of oversleeping for 3 hours , sitting and watching tv for 4 hours , making some food and going to bed . If you actually see how you wanted to live that day and realise you failed in certain areas then you will know where to improve . Also try to enjoy these procsesses and journies because often there will be more satisfaction gained from achieving these goals than whatever arrives right at the end . The emotions we get from completing the goal itself can in my experience tend to be quite fleeting . I think Meditation ' s itself is documenting his struggle with his own ego so continue to fight yours . Again I hope some of this goes some small way to helping as I fully agree that Stoicism is a pragmatic philosophy and should be shared so we can all gain some small victory from its wisdom
