    Used to be music in the past, but recently my interest had dwindled and appears like my interests have shifted now. Id say my job, specifically working remotely as an engineer. Whenever I go through a rough patch or emotionally wrecked, I’d instantly open up my laptop and do work, sometimes even on a Friday night. Pushes me towards getting promoted, and recognized by my manager.

    Crazy enough I did put in 13 hour days over the past week, felt accomplished putting in hard work

    top 2 been weed and p*** for me as well. i feel very confident I've got weed behind me, and on monday I made a stretch at my weekly integration group to not watch p*** for a week. speaking my truth to the other men from a place of vulnerability and feeling their support seems to have changed the game, given me some real power. I've had a couple small urges this week but instead I dove into my bullet journal and everyday this week I have instead exercised, meditated, read, and journaled.

    the 'trick' for me has been doing that tough introspection (often facilitated by my brothers at the group) and realizing at the deepest level why I behave the way I do to find the shadow that's driving that behavior, and then keeping that shadow in front of me

    for far too long i've been a mediocre man, content with simply getting others approval but breaking integrity with the man I know I can be.

    "It's remarkable how uncomplicated it is most of the time. The hard part is not knowing what to do, but having the resolve to do it. What is one thing you know you should do right now and you just need to step up and do it?"

    I usually just feed that demon and hope for better days ahead, idk why but trying to escape those feelings doesnt work with me. But i feel like music is sorta therapeutic for me, been listening to that new sampha and 808s a lot lately. I can definitely say that i do have some albums i put on specifically when im feeling like s***

    Well I had gotten much better at music so it's probably still music

    Or listening, going through old soul songs to see what to sample

    Just enjoying the music, not even as an end goal to chop or whatever

    It's one of the best hobbies you can ever have

    Cause you're creating something and no one can take that away from you

    I had a lot of friends who were getting crazy during quarantine times, mostly uninterested people in media or music so they had nothing to do and their only interaction was going outside and just hanging out

    To me it was like a blessing to just sit at home, no responsibilities just dive in
