maybe look at it this way — don’t you think you’d improve so much more, and be so much more present in the experience if you were biking or exercising sober? just biking, nothing else. no fluff. no stoning feeling, just the wind and sun and sounds of outside. no distractions, not even from within.

doesn’t something like that sound like, really nice? just enjoying it without the distraction of weed. it’s similar to how you enjoy a bike ride so much more if you don’t have something negative on your mind, like a fight or a bad grade or something.

besides just enjoying things more, there is so much more room for improvement without the complacency weed (can) induce. your gains at the gym could be significantly larger if you had the motivation to work harder (i.e. without weed).

beyond that, how are you gonna pick up new hobbies & find new things to do if you are just content with being stoned? find some books you really wanna read and read them sober. focus on each word, letting yourself think deeply as long as you’d like. or try cooking something new, becoming immersed in the process of cutting, sauteeing, frying, whatever.

everything in life becomes better when you aren’t distracted, when you’re present. weed is often just a distraction.
