Learn how to take care of yourself first. That includes:
* learning to cook and prepare your own food.
* learn proper sleeping habits and make a routine that feels comfortable.
* learn to exercise - pick an activity and do it consistently with some goals in mind.
* learn to budget money and manage expenses.
* learn to groom yourself and maintain a regular cleanliness routine
* learn to entertain yourself alone - without the internet (ex. reading a book, telling a story, etc)
* learn how devices you own work and how to troubleshoot/repair them (ex. fridge, ac, oven, car)
The general theme I have is that "the things you own, end up owning you", if you are not accountable for them. Start with the things you can't get rid of like your body and then question everything else you introduce into your life to eliminate clutter.
Examples: - if you don't know how to prepare food your diet depends on what restaurants offer and you have little control over ingredients, portion size, calorie intake...
- if you pass out in front of the tv and wake up on the couch it is unlikely that you will feel motivated in the morning. Likely you will pick up McDonald's breakfast on the way to work cause you are running late.
- if you give up on exercising your body you will quickly feel powerless when you have to move something heavy.
