Exercise and sauna are truly essential for me and I happen to live in Finland so the latter is very accessible.
I notice how my mood goes down quickly (specially approaching winter) if I don't exercise even if other parts of my life are ok. It doesn't matter that I have some nice goals set, good books to read, side projects, nice games... I just feel very apathetic if I don't do it.
Oh yeah and no alcohol and definitely no coffee.
- mrfusion 6y agoWhy no coffee? What are your observations?
- outime 6y agoI wrote a bit about it here in HN [1]. Not everyone is the same but for me quitting gave me back the chilled mood and personality I had before starting with coffee several years ago. I didn't realize coffee took it away until kind of recently. [1] https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=23001396 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=23001396
