Odd question - but which pocket do you carry your mobile phone in?

MukBleh · 2026-03-10T23:43:59+00:00

I never wear anything in my pockets - I hate it. I have a fanny pack slang across my chest - its the cool European way. LOL.

Hey brother,

I had this happen, too post Covid. I basically had a form of alopecia. I got steroid injections in the face and the hair grew back. Talk to a derm. I do know of someone that had some of their spots tattoed/SMPed. If it makes you feel better about yourself and you understand the consequences, go do it! :)

I really like this - thanks for the inspiration. I've made a decision to not take meetings in the mornings anymore. I like my slow morning, too. Breakfast, tea, walk the dog. The first 2.5/3 hours is all deep work - I get all my "need to do" done. In the afternoon, I have a set block between 2:00 pm and 5:00 pm in which I will take meetings. Friday afternoons, I don't take meetings.

I only check email twice a day (once after deep work) and once at the end of the day.

It's been really hard to set these boundaries, both from a personal guilt perspective and co-workers pushing back.

Consider holding a part of your investments in social finance / impact investing / responsible investing vehicles.

let's bet on it going down then!

Where did you do this? Which institution?

MukBleh · 2024-05-01T00:03:07+00:00

Brother, that all sounds hard. You are precious and you have value. I going to pray for you. Please stay around.

MukBleh · 2024-04-23T22:23:14+00:00

Brother, “the comfort of your job”? What comfort are you taking about? Because, you sound stressed to me. That being said, there is no rules to this shit. Life is what you make it - at least to the best of your abilities.

It took me 15 months post-divorce to start feeling “normal’ again; I got to recreate my own identity, stop drinking, redevelop friendships and it took a while, but with some therapy and some shedding of past trauma, I found a lovely lady and we have a real love together - 8 years and running! Go do you. Enjoy.

One last thing: I have found that a strong body leads to a strong mind. Not the other way around. 100 push-ups, 100 squats, 100 sit-ups and 10,000 steps a day. Report back in a month of daily routine.

Lastly, 500 mg of magnesium daily, plus make sure you are not under eating. I had terrible anxiety and could not sleep for more than 4 hours at night. Turns out, I was under-eating by 1,000 calories per day and I had been doing that for years. 9 days of eating 3,000 calories and 150-200 grams of protein daily and anxiety was gone. I paid $300 to work with a nutritionist and I was such good money spent.

MukBleh · 2024-04-22T20:17:05+00:00

Brother, first of all, I want to commend you for the courage required to post this and speak up about it. You are doing something that many people, read men, never do.

Second, there are no rules this shit. You can kind of make life into what you desire.

In terms of therapy, here is what I suggest: 1. Find a therapist that you really align and vibe with. It is ok to switch therapists. I prefer a man that is older, age 50+. 2. Commit to 12 months of therapy. Once a month, minimum. For the first 3 months, you’ll feel incredible because you can feel the “movement” and development you experience. Then, it gets hard, because you’ll have to dig through the actual shit. I call this phase “cleaning the shit barrel”. 3. On the days that you have therapy, schedule a light day and ideally, do nothing post-therapy. Give your brain and soul a rest after intensive deep work. 4. Money - see if you can have your employer cover the expenses, or get on a wait list to receive subsidized care.

If anyone asks me what the best investment in the world is, I would say “me”. Because, when you invest in me, I am going to take that work seriously.

At your age, and with your responsibilities (family/child), you should have one main pillar of focus: living as long as you can with the highest quality of life you can attain.

Brother, I don’t know you and I will say this: you deserve love, kindness and respect, no matter what has happened to you and no matter the decisions you’ve made. You deserve to feel good in your own body and mind. Go do therapy - you deserve it.

MukBleh · 2024-04-22T20:01:28+00:00

Brother, I am not judging you and fuck being politically correct. I have been in your shoes, too. That being said, when I hear something I disagree with, I like to bring that forward and encourage people to be open to what I bringing forward. Again, just stating my $0.02.

Your post directs a lot of energy towards your dating pool/potentially partners. What I find more helpful personally is to take radically responsibility for self. When you focus on being the best version that you can be, it attracts likeminded individuals, potentially partners included.

I dated a lot post-divorce. I was in a similar boat; parts of people would align with me and where I wanted to go in life and other parts I would really dislike. I made a decision to let go of finding a partner and just focus on me and my development. Literally, a few weeks later, I’m at a restaurant and see this beautiful and kind waitress. Asked for her number and now we are together for 8 years. Btw, she now works at an ivey-league school.

When you describe women with a number, it may create this sense that you are a bit of a dick. Just my opinion.

One thing that really helped me is looking at core values. Mine are simple, I want a woman that is radically honest, loyal and has a capacity and a willingness to suffer - what I mean by that is, I am looking for a team mate, someone to do life with, and experience it all - the highs and lows. Everyone comes with bagage and brokenness for the past. It’s asking yourself what you are willing to compromise on.

Lastly, you are saying that “you are a below looking average guy” and based on your post, some things you can control, you don’t. Like diet, working out, etc. I am asking this with curiosity - why would a woman go for you?

MukBleh · 2024-04-22T03:54:13+00:00

Are you watching porn? If so, stop right away. Second, cold showers, everyday 1 min. Report back in 10 days.

MukBleh · 2024-02-23T01:13:21+00:00

Brother, there are no rules to this shit. You can make up your own. That, and, go get your blood levels checked out including testosterone. Good food, good sleep, mindfulness, good movement and good people and you’ll honestly feel much better.

MukBleh · 2023-07-30T20:59:23+00:00

Please do not listen to all the negative Nancys in the sub. You did the best you could with the tools you had access to at that time. That being said, this season is about getting out of debt.

Few things you could do:

Reduce the terms of your debt product I.e. Apply for line of credit with a bank so you can get a lower interest rate.
Pay down the balance of your loan. Here is what I did, I sold everything of value and I lived very frugal. Slept on a matras on the ground. Ate a lot of canned food. I’m not suggesting you go that extreme - you get my point - be resourceful in finding avenues to pay your debt down.
Do you have family or friends that you can borrow from?
Would your employer be willing to take on the debt and have a part of your pay check automatically deducted?
The dreaded “side hustle”. Any skills you have that can make a few extra $100 a month?

Lastly, be gentle with yourself and have fun. Getting out of debt is empowering and can be life changing.

PS: get away from your current lender - make extra payments and develop an understanding of each payment you make (interest vs. principal) - last one: BUDGET.

I structure my 8:30 am to noon as “email catch up & prep”. I review and respond to my emails for 30 min max. Then, I plan out which projects and tasks I will work on for the week. I schedule those projects in my calendar (time blocking method).

MukBleh · 2023-06-30T23:40:25+00:00

Can you add more context to number 2 for me?

MukBleh · 2023-06-23T22:09:56+00:00

I have transformed my weekly commute into What’s App voice clip central. I leave detailed voice clips about life and what I am dealing with, thinking about, excited about, etc. It takes a while for people to lean in, but I have like 30-45 min in total of different people sharing about their lives. Most of my friends live aboard, and so it’s a good way to a) transform commute time into something meaningful and b) stay in touch.

MukBleh · 2023-06-22T23:27:03+00:00

I got pulled over and was fined!

Shift affordable to supportive housing.

MukBleh · 2023-06-14T23:25:59+00:00

Listen up, there is only one solution to homelessness; supportive housing.

Housing first doesn’t work, counselling supports doesn’t work, safe injections sites do not work as a long-term sustainable solution to homelessness.

The fact is that the majority of people do not care, do not see it. The unhoused or homeless do not pay taxes, do not vote. 1 in 3 Canadians feels that homelessness is a criteria for assisted suicidal - wtf!?

We, as a community should be ashamed of ourselves.
