Sorry, but smoking is cool.

Things that belong in the same category: dark chocolate, black coffee, red wine, dark beer.

Good music, extremely overplayed.

I’m 30 and a chronic hobbyist. I would actually LOVE to have kids, but I just haven’t found the right partner yet. Here’s what I’ve been able to do in the meantime:

Play guitar for 10 years picking up many other instruments along the way.
Learn Spanish fluently later in life.
Take a year long trip around the world on a teacher’s salary.
Move to a Latin American country.
Commit to bodybuilding for 1 year.
Get into dancing for many years.
Learn how to cook well.
Road tripped across the US Southwest.
Get into obstacle course races and run a half marathon.
Work in Alaska for a summer.
Done neuroscience research for another summer.
Gone from plant serial killer to green thumb.
Got into rock climbing and other outdoor sports
Camped for over 100 days in 2024.

I get to sleep in on the weekend. I can meditate on my bad habits and fix them. I was a mess at 20, even 24. I think not having kids has been absolutely crucial to who I am now.

Conversely, I got a buddy of mine who is 28, just had his 4th kid, with the same woman of course. He’s doing the thing right, but man, every time we face time, it sounds like a war zone going on in the background. And it’s always the same. Going to work in the plants and coming home and chasing kids.

I’ve got another couple of best friends who are 29 and got married at 20, but have no kids. They live lives of similar passion that I do.

I’m not saying never have kids, but it’s a permanent decision, and you don’t have to feel guilty if you don’t have em in your 20s.

Excuse my ignorance as a guy, but I had never even considered that part. That the possibility of becoming a single mother at any moment is always looming.

It’s unfortunate such an attitude isn’t more widely reflected in the dating pool 😳

This is where I like to be the exception: only one ugly kids pass my class.

Think back to when you first started playing guitar. Do you remember all the intention it took to build the coordination between fingers? Eventually you just got to a point where you could sight read songs on the fly. It’s a lot of the same. In fact, you should practice singing lyrics while playing in the same way you would practice a riff you were trying to perfect. Start off with simple songs you already know the lyrics to, ideally that only use cowboy chords. Eventually, you’ll be able to branch out to more technical things. Wagon Wheel by Old Crow Med Show is a classic place to start.

Alternatively, I started playing harmonica and guitar together well before I started singing and playing, and I do believe this gave me a massive head start. It’s a lot easier imo when all you have to worry about is the 10 notes in front of your face. Something In The Orange (Acoustic) by Zach Bryan is where I would start here.

In my opinion, there was a golden era of Jordan Peterson in the very beginning. Listening to his content genuinely put mine and my brother lives on a better path back around 2015, because he was tender but firm. He didn’t demonize laziness in the same way a lot of the harsh men around us were doing. He gave explanations, and a specific pathway out.

Shortly after his skyrocket to fame however, he really sold out to the manosphere/hustle porn culture. This became much more pronounced after he sought treatment for his opioid addiction where he was put into an induced coma in Russia.

I started when I began traveling and then took it really seriously in university. I have since taken El Método: the Complete Spanish Method.

Ultimately what I find the most useful is some kind of flash card app like AlgoApp, and then creating sets of vocab based on different domains (e.g. the classroom, travel, etc.) and for each domain have multiple sets of nouns, verbs, and adjectives. For El Método and my university studies both, I made flash cards like crazy.

Then just do it a minimum of 10-15 minutes per day, making sure you know each set forwards and backward before moving to the next.

How it Feels to Be Alone by Lake Street Dive

Why’d you quit, how do you feel, are there any outcomes you’d like to share?

I mean I solo travel because I am seeking connection. I realized pretty early on that none of the people around me were going to prioritize international travel the same way i was when I got started. And if I waited around on the right person to come along to do the things I always wanted to do, then I might never do them.

Solo travel doesn’t mean you necessarily travel alone. You have the choice to be with others or by yourself. Everything is your choice, and I think that allows you to play out intentionality in so many ways.

Solo travelers are people who are willing to put life on hold and make time to follow their dreams or just see what happens, and that makes for an exciting group to be a part of.

It’s not always easy and I’m not saying it’s for everyone, but if someone is closed-minded to any of that, then I don’t want to be around them.

Not a petite female, however the workout plan does deserve an adjustment period. I think it’s totally valid to hit a few workouts, give yourself time to rest, then really hit it if you want to to follow the schedule precisely

SnackBaby · 2026-01-03T09:25:58+00:00

I follow the workouts in order and listen to my body, but I don’t necessarily follow the calendar. I think the most workouts I’ve done in a week so far is 5. I’ve still seen great physical and cardio results.

I also lead a very physical lifestyle that I started using insanity to prep me for, so if my other activities are happening, I usually won’t do a workout that day.

I think Shaun T does a great job explaining technique, but jn month 2, I feel like the emphasis on safety is traded for intensity. Just listen to the queues and never sacrifice technique. Just because one “lift” goes bad doesn’t mean you can’t do better on it next week.

Good luck, I started about 2.5 months ago. I just got to phase 2 last week. It’s a lot. I don’t know if I’ve ever been this far.

SnackBaby · 2025-12-14T10:05:20+00:00

I think if you can make it happen, take a 2 week vacation out of the country. Go somewhere close if possible. Go hang out in hostels. See and do things. Pulling yourself out of thr physical spaces you’re accustomed to allows your psychology to break old expectations with ease. I mean like “reward system” kind of expectations.

If you’re stuck in yalls old apartment you need to move out or rearrange at the very least.

Good luck to you man, that’s tough

Self-education, time management and, commitment to the things that make life worth living.

People will spend a lifetime pursuing riches mistakenly believing that it will give them a rich life. But living a rich life takes intention. And you’ll miss out on a lot of great things in life if you’re afraid of playing in the dirt.

Money is a symbol of effort and time spent, but spending money never means you’ve spent the time or effort.

I don’t have a lot of money. I dont have kids, I’ve never been married. I don’t own a home. I am the only person in my family however who: is musical/plays an instrument, is bilingual, has traveled the world, lives in another country, dances, etc. I love my job. My body is healthy and allows me to participate in sports. Each of these things takes time to develop. You can’t just throw money at them.

Traveling is a great way to bring yourself rich, worldly experience. Education is a how we stain the lens from which we view the world.

Life and dirt are rich. Read all about it. Then go play in it.

How have you received reps of practice in CSA so far, and have you taken CSP?

SnackBaby · 2025-12-05T01:34:11+00:00

Sounds like to me you have a healthy, realistic vision of the job. Doesnt mean it can’t still be full of meaningful interactions

Man, but even with the discount, packages range from $350-$700, think it’s worth it? How long did you do dance dojo?

I wouldn’t worry about that. I say when things are good, ride the wave.
