How I did it: i decided my car was a waste of money, time, and emotional investment and, with the encouragement of my boyfriend, sold it. it was a nice fancy sports car and im glad to have it the hell out of my life. i used the money to pay off the remainder of my debt and now i ride my bike and share my boyfriends car with him. prior to that last lump sum of cash, i just paid every single penny i had extra each month towards my bills and vowed to not … Read how I did it…
How I did it: 1. recognize i need a shelf2. pick a style3. comb craigslist for comparable second hand shelf4. convince friend to help me pick it up5. drive it home6. reassemble it7. sort books8. organize books on shelf9. enjoy visuals in living room10. actually READ the books Read how I did it…
still compulsive about over eating and internet use. i find being present with activities helps mitigate this problem, but seems to be an easy pattern to fall into, with the end result being me feeling sick in one way or another. im hoping this improves with the increase fo time i spend with my mate when they move in at the end of the month. long distance relationships seem to trigger gross compulsive behaviour.
when i selected this goal, i guess i thought i meant money. but now… would i rather learn to invest in myself, my friends, my mate, my family, my children, the environment, in strangers, in happiness? investing in money seems so… well… superficial and ephemeral at best. wouldnt the real security id hope to attain via investments come through channels other than money? thoughts?
