* Lifting at the gym
* Supplements. Omega 3, Vit D, Vit B12, Iron, Zinc, creatine
* Eating mostly fresh whole foods. I get a fresh vegetable box delivered once a week and that makes up most of my meals.
* Skincare. Primarily SPF, tretinoin, vitamin C. And a basic moisturizer.
* Sleep. Try to get at least 8 hours and try not to compromise on this for work anymore. If I finish work late one night, I'll be in later the next morning.
* Writing fiction. Similarly to the reason I got into programming, writing fiction helps me get all the crazy worlds and ideas out of my head and into something real. It is very hard, but when I have a finished manuscript in my hand it's like a cathartic experience.
* Therapy. I've been going weekly for a few months now and it has made a not entirely definable but very real difference in my view of the world, myself, and my relationships. It's a long process of self-discovery, which has always been very important to me. At some point last year I just realized I did as much discovering as I could on my own and needed someone else's help to keep going.
* Meditation attempts have failed. The closest I can come to meditation is putting on my planar headphones and listening to music in bed for 1-2 hours.
* Reading fiction. I love to read, and reading fiction brings me joy. It's the perfect activity that feels just the right balance of relaxing, creative, and still somewhat productive.
- in9 3y agoWhat a complete view of what one should strive for. I know this is not possible all the time, but it is a nice goal
