Default Self Improvement Thread

If there's some things in your life that you would like to better what are they? Maybe we can list some of those things and get some USEFUL :reechy: advice from other members.

1) I need to be a bit more cleaner. I tend to come home from work everyday and toss my work cloathes onto my dresser....after a week and some change...it adds up and begins to clutter. I'd like to better my cleanliness because it is not that great.

2) I'd like to better maintain my monies. I tend to find myself spending monies because i have it. Whenever i put monies into the saving account, something else happens; which requires me to pull that monies out the account.

3) I'd also like to dig myself out of the nice little debt i collected for myself. My plan right now is to just get a bunch of monies together and whenever i reach 5k just pay off this, pay off that, until it's all gone, but again, all leads back to saving which i have a hard time doing.

Oh yea

4) I have an anger issue. The slightest things piss me off and set my angry on fire. I dont know what it is, but when i'm driving and something happens my temper flares and i'm spewing curse words out the wazzoo. I accidently snapped on the woman because she said something out of context and that is definitely not like me. So i'd like to curb some of my aggression.

Do you look at cars as being a hobby? Maybe try doing something else like collect transformers or something. Channel that car whoreness into something else.

Nail polish helped me stop biting my nails. I put clear nail polish on them and after tasting nail polish for a while....i stopped biting.

the problem is I know why I go through cars, its not the fact that I have made money on all but 2 cars I bought( coincidently the 2 cars were bought during time period my ex was with me). Its the fact that I use cars to substitute for lack of other things in my life. I wish I had more friends for one but I can't find many people who share a lot in common with me since most are either married with kids or complete losers.
