Unfortunately, I haven't talked to many of you lately. Life has been a bit chaotic, and I don't have Internet on my computer right now, so I've only been on at a friend's house recently.
I've been spending a lot of my free time on little journeys of self-discovery and devoting a lot of mental energy improving myself and the way I interact with the world. Although it isn't always fun to point a personal magnifying glass at myself, I've found that identifying my faults and actively seeking to eliminate them is very rewarding. The hardest part, it seems, is admitting a problem exists. Fixing my flaws is much easier than admitting they're a part of me.
The reason I bring this up is that I'm wondering if anyone else here is actively into self-improvement. I'd like to have a discussion about what works and what doesn't.

Well I work with Computers so I realize the difference between...
Problems (They can be solved) and Issues (Can't Be Solved)
Once you realize that problem exists, have done enough research on how to fix them, then will see the true path to solve it.
At work things are very streamlined because I've fixed most of the problems before.
In life I haven't so things take time and more energy.
My main problems in life were... Eating UnHealthy - I eat real lean and clean now Drinking Soda - Done with it Consuming Caffeine - Done with it Drinking Alcohol - Done with it
Now being that I'm in the rare category of not being overweight an ounce I am working to become truly strong and add 10 pounds of muscle this year. I'm 139.5 as of this morning so a new problem will be solved.

Hmm that's odd... I posted a comment here earlier but it would seem it didn't go through right...

For the last year, my husband and I have the motto: "Try to be a little more awesome each day." This means finding out what makes us unhappy and problem solve to try and change it. I hated norwalk so we moved. I am lonely, so I'm working to find work.
It's working well for our psychology, despite how poor we are. That will soon be remedied. See my section for details.

Just incase you didn't know.

I think another thing to remember in the road to self-improvement is to avoid blacksliding. That's an easy thing to do...
