New Year advice?

What are some pieces of general advice for a new year?
Since this is the time people actively want to change for the better, what works for your life to make it "kick-ass"??

Here are some pieces of BAD advice:
"Seize the Moment! Live Each Day as if It Were Your Last!"

Better to say:

"Make today count."
It's about doing something productive with today so that tomorrow you can look back on it and be proud. So that the days following it will be even better. It's about growth, and you can't grow if you're picturing this moment to be the only one in existence. Some of what you do right now is purely to set your future self up for an easier life. The less you plan for that, the harder it's going to be when you realize that the comet never came, and you spent all of your time, money and energy enjoying the seconds instead of the lifetime.

and
"Forget about the past"?

Better to say

"Acknowledge your mistakes, but don't obsess over them."
I admit that this is a fine line -- the reason this advice exists is because people who obsess over their own failures are just as self-absorbed as douchebags who obsess over how awesome they are. Both are easy ways to wind up with your head too far up your own ass to notice other people. It's not about forgetting the past; it's about coming to terms with it.


Good advice would be:

-dont be fat
you're are more likely to:
-spend more on healthcare,
-spend more on food
-not get laid as much
-get cancer/diabetes/heart disease

who said anything about you not getting laid?
oh I better add more to counter yours: "!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

my post you quoted is about giving good advice to others.
It's not hating on fat people...comprehensions isnt your thing or do you feel upset because I make you feel fat and that's why you tried to prove to me you "arent fat" by your out of annotate telling me how much you get laid???
did someone call you fat?
do you think you are fat?
srsly, this isnt Deuce Bigalow and you arent tina. k?

I have no idea if you are fat or unhealthy. I do wonder about your mental health as you took some useful advice personally and got upset about it.

What I like or dislike has nothing to do with fat people...(why quote "fat"? you think it's untrue, and people dont know they are fat?)

Yeah, I mention health stuff a lot,
why is that? Why do you talk about the stuff you talk about?
Well, I do it cause it's fun for me, I like it and dealing with the health of others is what I do nearly daily.
The difference here is I can rant(which makes me feel better) and daily I must bite my tongue,
I am NOT allowed to call people names for their behavior. I have to be very PC or I end up with more costs/trouble than it's worth.

recall, I even made a "rant" thread about being fat and it's cause of disease.

I understand why people are fat: food makes you feel good, increases dopamine/reward pathways, gastric satiation vs intestinal satiation. etc

Not being fat is like quitting smoking or harder drugs than nicotine.

so Not being fat can be hard, but so what?

I find this ho....."Provider".... world interesting though

"Don't be fat" is horrible "advice". Your follow up post to Emmie, made it personal. It's not a "PC" issue when you make it personal.

I have new years advice for you... "don't be a dick".

Cherry picking my posts, are you?
who said anything about you not getting laid?

Obviously you're the one with the unstable mental status since every post you make is a pathetic excuse to target people. But my question is if your so "WONDERFUL" and GOD'S GIFT to the ladies why again are you paying for pussy?? Don't worry I'll wait for your response.

1. Don't sweat the small stuff

2. It's all small stuff Originally Posted by Misawahawk

I like this advice Misawahawk!

Johnny left me nothing to say

But Misawahawk does have the best quote that's been posted anywhere on the boards for New Years.

1. Don't sweat the small stuff
2. It's all small stuff Originally Posted by Misawahawk

I am guessing that you are a gym rat bcpl. To each their own, but with your ego how do you get your head through the door. It is all small stuff unless you worry about it all the time. I think Emmie must have hit a nerve the way you got personal real quick. Have a protein drink and chill. You go girl, I got your back!!!

I have new years advice for you... "don't be a dick". Originally Posted by Johnny4455

Close this puppy up!
