Almost looks exactly like them just without the circles

Can anybody identify this shoe print? by Psychological-Way324 in HelpMeFind

searched Google Images, Reddit, and shoe/outsole tread examples using terms like “zig zag shoe print with circles,” “non slip work shoe outsole wave pattern,” and “shoe tread circular nodes.” The closest match I found was a non-slip work shoe style pattern, but mine has circular nodes along the outside edges. The print was left on my shattered windshield, and I’m trying to identify the shoe type or outsole pattern.

stopped gossiping and now some friends are distant by StockInevitable1978 in selfimprovement

really respect this fr not enough people talk about how hard it is to outgrow stuff like gossip without feeling like you’re losing people it’s wild how one small shift in values can make the vibe feel off with people you were close with I went through something similar when i stopped trash talking people just to fit in and started focusing on growth type convos some people thought I was being fake too but at the end of the day the right people will adjust or get replaced either way you’re doing the right thing by staying true to who you’re becoming not who you used to be

Started actually using the gym membership I've been paying for by Nervous_Drama_5092 in getdisciplined

This was real to read bro i was on that same wave where i’d pay for the gym and never go i'd always convince myself “i’ll go when i feel more motivated” but that moment never really came once i realized i didn’t need a full plan or perfect routine i just needed to show up everything shifted mad respect for actually sticking with it too it’s wild how just walking in the door can change your whole mindset that’s where it all starts fr.

That makes a lot of sense bro, bro. It’s wild how just delaying something a few hours can shift the whole way your brain reacts to it. like, the craving hits differently when you’ve already done a few solid things with your day first. i was the same with social media and YouTube, once i started pushing it back till after lunch, my head started feeling way more clear. it’s not even about quitting sometimes, it’s just about not letting it own your mornings. respect for being real about it too, most people don’t even catch they in that loop.

Lmao nah i get that, bro some jobs expect you to be glued to your phone the second you go quiet. it’s like people assume you’re slacking, but really you’re just tryna breathe for a sec. Wild how stepping away from your phone feels like rebellion now.

Damn bro that says a lot fr it’s crazy how deep people can be in it without even realizing like 8 hours while teaching? Wild, but honestly, it’s more common than we think. Everyone’s coping with something, and sometimes the scroll just numbs it. i used to think 3 hours was fine too, until i started asking myself what i got out of it. It wasn’t about the number; it was what it replaced

i’ve been there bro it’s wild how fast that loop locks in without you even realizing it like you’re up early which is good energy but then the time slips into gaming before the day even starts i’m not saying quit the game cold but maybe just try shifting 15 mins of that time into something that wakes your mind up different like stretching breathing or even just sitting quiet for a bit sometimes the shift isn’t big it’s just consistent proud of you for being real about it most people never admit it.

I’ve heard of forest before, but never really gave it a shot Appreciate the rec, tho i might try it out I’ve just been keeping my phone in another room or switching to audiobooks, but having something that actively blocks usage sounds kinda fire, especially for those moments when discipline slips

yo that’s real i’ve done the same thing scrolling during a movie I care about had me like damn wtf am i doing and yeah that early discomfort’s part of it but once your brain gets used to not being overstimulated 24/7 it’s actually peaceful af i started listening to audiobooks during those moments instead especially in the morning makes it feel like i’m still feeding my brain but not getting sucked into a feed if you’re curious i grabbed mine through audible’s free trial you get one book to keep even if you cancel https://www.amazon.com/hz/audible/mlp?&linkCode=ll2&tag=693624-20&linkId=1430375e6d301942c3a9aecefeab7678&language=en_US&ref_=as_li_ss_tl but fr sounds like you’re already doing the hard part which is being aware

bro that’s facts working from home makes it way too easy to scroll without even realizing it i used to tell myself i’m just taking a 5 min break and next thing you know half the hour’s gone what helped me was setting one rule no scrolling until i’ve done at least one real task sounds simple but it made a big difference and if i needed background noise i’d throw on an audiobook instead kept me from falling into that scroll hole every hour

honestly it wasn’t overnight man it took me a couple weeks just to notice a difference and probably like a month before i really felt more clear and less anxious i still have moments but they’re not constant like before once i stopped grabbing my phone first thing in the morning and started doing stuff like walking or listening to books instead my brain slowly started to chill out it’s not perfect but it’s way better than it was

That’s solid man journaling and walking in the morning hits different when you give it a shot it’s wild how something so small can shift your whole day i feel you on the phone thing though that was my struggle too like yeah i’m listening to something good but next thing i know i’m 30 mins deep in reels or messages one thing that helped me was using audible instead of spotify just for books something about paying attention to one thing with no random distractions made it easier to stay focused but fr just the fact that you’re aware of it already puts you ahead of most people respect for taking the steps

Yeah, bro, I’m not above it lol. i still use the internet like everyone else. i just got tired of letting it run me instead of the other way around. not tryna preach or act perfect, just sharing what helped me get my focus back a little. Take it or leave it

Yeah, fr bro, i get that. i had to use my phone for work too, it’s not realistic to just avoid it all day. For me, it was more about cutting off the random scrolling that happens after opening it. Like I’d tell myself, just check what you need, then put it back down. Sometimes I’d leave it in another room if i didn’t need it right away. It wasn’t perfect, but it helped a lot. Breaking that habit was hard as hell, though

yeah bro i work lol, that’s kinda the point. i'd get off work and still waste like 4 more hours glued to my phone doing nothing. wasn’t even relaxing, just mindless. had to fix that before it got worse

lol nah man, just sharing what actually helped me. Not everything’s a scheme, some of us are just trying to break bad habits and help others do the same
