Hello comrades and welcome to the fourth improvement megathread of May! There is one more week left in May, let’s make it count.
As usual, some discussion ideas:
- Do you want to share something you’ve done in the previous week? Everything counts, nothing is too small.
- Do you have any goals for next week?
- Do you have any streaks? For example, “sober for one day.” Feel free to post your streak every day in this thread.
- If you don’t have a continuous streak, did you manage to abstain from something for a day or more?
- Did you come across some useful information or resource that might help others?

Good luck with your goals! 
My goal right now is to make some type of plan for my future so I can escape my shit deli job but I’m just tearing my hair out. I don’t know if I should go back to school or learn a trade or just piss away all my savings and go on a world tour and die. I’ve been researching various degrees and the pros and cons of each, and I feel overwhelmed. Not trying to be an epic productivity guy, I just want more out of life than this repetitive nightmare. This job has sucked the joy out of literally everything for me at this point. All the little self-improvement things feel like I’m just suppressing the hard truth that I’m wasting my life.
Not everyone can be a programmer, obviously, but if you have a spare laptop, consider following The Odin Project. Free, and focused on getting you employed. Far quicker than a degree, with far less time and energy investment.
