This is excellent advice, I couldn't agree more with Health. Everything else will pretty much fall into place once you take care of it. It will be easier to meet people, you will not have mood swings, or lack confidence. Your mind will

Exercise, nutrition, sleep, seriously. There are no better solutions. I lift weights (either at gym or home) and do cardio (depends on the weather). I also keep junk food to a minimal, mostly have protein (chicken, meat, etc) and vegetables
