Has any of you ever gotten motivated? How did you do it?
>>
I had a 1.5 year period where I was really motivated to succeed in school and make friends. I started off suffering from severe anxiety which eventually led me to go on a drinking binge which ended with me passing out in public. That was sort of a huge wakeup call and after that I became sort of obsessed with living healthy and exposing myself to discomfort and working hard. I'd say my main motivation during that time was fear of failure coupled with self-hate. I just hated how pathetic I'd become. I wanted to just kill every weak part of me and leave it all behind. Every time I felt tired or uncomfortable I would tell myself that the pain was just the old, useless me dying. I do 45 minutes on a stationary bike every day, and every time I do I visualize myself biking way from my past, leaving it all behind.

The results have been surprising. I'm never going to make up for those lost years but I've made friends for the first time since high school and am hopefully going to be graduating with a Master's degree in genetics with honors.

It's far from perfect. I still have trouble with social situations and have gitten nowhere with women, but at least I don't hate myself as much.

You should see that talking to girls and socialising is a skill like anything else. You get better by practising it. Once you experience what i said, and you have a realization that you can infact get better at talking to people and improve your life, you will get motivation to keep going at it.

Dont just assume thigs wont work, keep at it until you have more positive reference experiences for events and interactions than negative ones and you will be able to keep up what youre doing and progressing. You will be motivated

Meal prep did it for me.

I was still eating like a child at age 25 so I decided to make a change.

It doesn't sound like a huge change but if you have a fridge full of healthy meals, 2 microwave minutes away from being ready to eat, you really don't have any excuse for wasting time on walking to the store, wasting money on junk food and then just binge eating in one sitting, wasting energy on digesting all of that crap.

Most of the times when you're feeling too tired to do anything, it's because your body is not getting energy from junk food. It's slowing down your metabolism and your body feeling like crap is fucking up your brain chemistry so you start feeling depressed, demotivated etc.

If this sounds like you, maybe give it a go.
>>
>>29830402
Modt of yiur assumptions and the identity you have given yourself probably comes from a shitty childhood or high school. It isnt your fault you werent raised properly but you have to realise that if yiu wrent raised properly then your beliefs are wrong. You have to go out and learn new beliefs. If yiu are over 18/21 your life is in your hands now, not your parents or the people you are forced to interact with like in high school.

Realise what you were taught is wrong, reexperience things and realise that they are not bad and realise you can get better at anything as long as you practice.
To get better at lifting weights you preform reps. Life is the same. Keep talking to people, consider each conversation a rep, eventually you will become good at it
>>
>>29830442
Yes. Read a book called "the ultra mind solution" by dr hymen (i think is his name)
Realise that food is chemicals, just like drugs. If you take bad drugs everyday you will fuck your mind and body up.
Eat the correct foods, your mind is actually linked to your body, how yiu feel depends on the chemicals yiu put in yiurself
>>
>>29830515
Anytime someone tells me they are suffering from depression, i always ask what their diet is. Surprise surprise its shit. And rather than fix their diet they take pills! If you have chemical imbalences its because youre not eating right. Its like youre abusing heroin everday, complaining about the side effects, then instead of stopping the heroin use, you try to take more drugs to counteract the side effects.
Food is chemicals, chemicals are drugs.

was unhappy with my body shape
basically forced myself to go to the gym and stop eating icecream and pizza all day
actually seeing results and my plan working out (losing 0.5 kg per week) motivated me immensely
started getting looks from women which motivated me even more
lost over 30 pounds and was happy how I looked
got a girlfriend (with a bit of luck, she msged me first) after that
aaaand got fat again :-)

You will not grow from this. The result will be added anxiety and just bad shit in short. Instead, try striking up a convo with anyone, guy or girl.

Meal prep guy here.

Just educate yourself on nutrition. No easy way around it. Do your research, skim out the bullshit, find what works for you and follow the rules.

Most of the stuff is obvious and you know already, just remember there are no "shortcuts".

I cook 5 days worth of meals on Sunday, put them in fridge in little tupperware containers and eat completely clean Mon-Fri. Then I eat a little looser on the weekend (without going overboard or binge eating) and cook again on Sunday.
>>
>>29830694
That's why you don't wait for it to come to you. You use motivation to get it. Not discipline aka feeling like you want to die every moment while you're forcing yourself to do something.
>>
>>29830706
Except even experts have lot of different opinions on nutrition. I'd really appreciate hearing what works for you.

Why did you lose motivation and get fat again?
>>
>>29830606
Do a sugar detox. Detox do actually work, if you say ate canned tuna everyday for a whole year you would get a build up of mercury in your body.
You may not be eating tuna but you might be eating something else bad thats processed or filled with preservatives that have built up in your body and are causing side effects you dont even notice because its been so long, one side effect could be that lack of energy.
First do a week long juice detox or something to flush your body of all the crap that youve built up in it from the junk food you eat. Then look up health meals and eat them. Dr hymen has another book on detoxing.
You can have junk food once in awhile, but everyday will cause side effects.
Also look into kale, kale is amazing food.

You may also be addicted to sugar or salt, witout eealising which is what makes you tired. Everyone knows the dangers of sugar but salt can be just as bad, it is a silent killer. Always look at the salt contence of food, sometimes you can get like 3 days worth of salt in one can of food.
Try going a week without the two as well and see if your body is less tired once you start eating right.
You might need longer than a week depending on how long you have been stock piling dangerous chemical build ups in your body.
Research this in more detail im just giving general advice so u get the idea

Can you give examples of meals you cook? Also do you cook for three meals a day? What is your average breakfast-lunch-dinner like?

I went to the psychologist and took the pills even though a bunch of normies said:
'Don't take the pills!'
The pills gave me tons of motivation with tons of side effects.
Eventually my psych took me off the pills as they definitely made a big impact.
I still have more motivation than before now that I am off them but the big impact faded once I was taken off.

Even from an american standpoint that's weird. Approaching a woman on the street and saying "hi"? What do you expect, to impress her with your amazing small talk skills? You just come off as desperate and you know what type of women go for desperate guys...
>>
>>29830679
Ok but then try going to a shop and tslking to a female store assitant and asking her pointless questions. Aim to keep eye contact the whole time and dont figit.
If you live in south east asia or visit it, try talking to and holding eye contact with hookers on the street. When youve warmed up talking to them and have a bit more confidence then go to a bar and try on real girls

>try striking up a convo with anyone, guy or girl.

I want to do this, but I'm afraid it would have no effect. Allegedly it gives you more confidence but I think I'll just go back to my browsing and eating my tendies in no time.
>>
>>29830808
No approaching women shows you are confident and go for what you want.
But if you feel like a creep doing it, you will come of as a creep and she will feel creeped out.
On the other hand if you smile, are confident, at ease and know what youre doing, she will feel the same.
Its the law of state transfer.

This is just another way to meet girls so you dont have to rely on your small social circle.
It is possible to meet girls through cold approach.
You are allowed to go outside and when you see a girl, yiu are allowed to talk to her, try it.

(Assuming you dont already go to gym)
If you walked into a gym on your first day there, would you feel bad you cant bench press 80kg on day one? Of course not.
Talking to girls is the same, its a skill, it takes many reps to get good at it. You can do it and get better at it if you do the reps, its literally impossible not to.
But you do actually have to go outside and do it
>>
>>29830885
>approaching women shows you are confident and go for what you want.

But not on randomly, on the streets. That was my point. You need a setting to break the ice. Otherwise you indeed come off as desperate because you are.
>>
>>29830730
>>29830786

My advice - start slow as fuck at first. I had a lot of false starts myself.

Don't worry about counting calories and macro-nutrients. It's so easy to become overwhelmed and discouraged.

Just buy 5 plastic containers, chicken breast, brown rice, broccoli (literally the most basic health meal).

Cook the rice and broccoli separately by boiling in water (I add a table spoon of coconut oil). Marinade chicken in lemon juice and garlic, then prepare chicken in oven or pan fry (again I coconut oil). Add whatever spices you want.

Divide all equally between the 5 containers. Boom, you've taken the "problem of lunch" out of your daily equation for 5 days. Just eat whatever crap like sandwiches etc for breakfast and dinner for now. Just try to eat at least 3 meals in a day.

If you can eat a clean lunch for 5 days in a row, you are ready to take it to the next level.

For meal ideas, just surf around youtube for recipes and tutorial vids etc.

>>
>>29830897
Wow im just trying to help no need to be rude when asking for clarification.

Practice small talk, its a skill you have to train in reps as well, but you can get better at it.
I know you probably think it is pointless to have small talk and i know the feeling but you have to learn how to do it if you want to be more social and succeed in life.
If you cant hold small talk it shows you are socially inept and lazy. If you are lazy people will feel like you think they are not worth your time and will treat you the same.

I cant give you a script to recite to girls but just go out and try talking to one and see where it goes. If youre "rejected" analyise what you did, and try again on a new girl avoiding your previous mistakes.
>>
>>29830929
It is possible to cold approach girls. It does not come off as desperate as long as you dont feel desperate while you do it. If i am out and i see a girl partaking in an activity i also enjoy, i would be stupid NOT to talk to her.
And even if i see a girl who is just walking and not doing anything, i will approach her because she is pretty.
Once you have approached lots of girls randomly on the street, you will eventually figure out how to make her feel calm right after talking to you so she doesnt think youre desperate or weird or creepy or anything.

Its a skill u have to preform reps in
>>
>>29830853

It's unbelievabley comfy.

If I had a crappy day, I just fantasize about getting a pizza on my way home and eating chips, drinking an energy drink.. maybe have a wank later. No one there to judge you, no one to bother you.

It's bliss.

Like what? Girls are not that naive unless you're 10/10. We usually think of them like that, but they're extremely good at noticing when a guy wants to fish her. That's why ghosting happens so often. They pretend to be interested in you and then give you a fake number or just don't respond.
>>
>>29830961
This is hardly uselsss adivce. Ia am answering OPs question.

I am not being smug im just being honest. You cant change or become better by staying in your comfort zone.

I was a wizard too and you probably hat me now because im not but i understand your thought process.
Realse that we were not raised correctly, meaning our beliefs are wrong. We have to go out of our way to learn the things normies learnt passively growing up. Its hard and embaressing but the longer you put it off, the worse your life will be and the harder it will be to exit your thought loops that are prtecting your fragile identity.
Social skills are just that, skills.
Anyone can learn them.
Whatever you spend your time doing you will get better at it. If i forced you to play soccer for 10 hours a day, like it or not you would get better at it. Same with talking to girls, if i forced you at gun point to talk to 5 or 10 girls a day, like it or not after a while you would get good at it and even statistically find ones who want to have sex with you just the way you are.

If you are a wizard realise you are just protecting an identiy you have created to feel safe because you dont want to leave your comfort zone. Dont ever cling to an identity, be like water and always be chaning and trying to better yourself
>>
>>29831152
>I was a wizard too

You can't not become a wizard. Being a wizard entails keeping your virginity until thirty. You hold the title forever.

Don't act like you know shit.
>>
>>29831151
Girls know that when you talk to them you find them attractive, yes and want to fuck them. They like the attention but they also want to pretend that yiure talking to them for some other reason. Once you say hi try asking them how theyre going and then talking about how youre going and what youre doing etc. i cant get you a script you just have to practice making small talk yourself and learn it as a skill. Make her feel comfortable around, you buold rapport, make a"friend". From their you can escalate and make your intentions clear.
Also remember YOU WANT HER TO KNOW THAT YOU LIKE HER AND WANT TO FUCK HER. Make that super clear from the start that that is why you are there. If she rejects you, nomproblem, at least you now know nothing could of happened between you. Do not try to hide your intentions and become a friend. She will accept your friendship. But then if you randomly down the line express feelings for her she will freak out because you made your itnetions from the start that you only wanted to be friends. Let your sexual intetions be clear and be ready for rejection. Do not try to "secretly" let her know you want to fuck her by never telling her because you are scared she will reject you.
It is better to get rejected straight away after declaring your intent and moving onto the next girl, rather than making friends with her bcause youre too scared to get rejected and the. Building up some fantasy relationship in your head. That stuff is creepy and freaks girls out and is the reason peopl get friend zoned

Ok i wasnt a wizard yeah i was an aporentice but trust me i know what its like to sit in a room with no job, not showering, not cutting my nails, having a neckbeard and greasy hair. Having to stock pile food in my room when people came over so i wouldnt have to go outaide my room and talk to them. Jerking off to the myspace picturss of girls I went to school with and imagining relationships with any girl who gave me any attention. Jerking off to weird porn multiple times a day (still not shwering). Being a disappontment to the family and feeling like a victum and being addicted to self pity.
I do browse wizardchan sometimes because i can relate to you guys because i was where you are for my high school years and bit after, but now i have made my life better.
I know you will hate me now because if i mananged to improve myself from your position then It means that you cant blame anyone but yourself for your circumstances and you hav to realise you are too scared and lazy to change. Dont be addicted to self pity, which is more addictive than drugs. Dont cling to your identity because you are scared, let your ego get damaged for a bit and relise you can have a good life if you work for it.

What I meant was: I wrote that I have no problem talking to women who are doing their job. Your reply was "hurr durr you have to go out and talk to people". This is what I meant when I called your reply smug.

>Social skills are just that, skills.
I see this argument everywhere and it is completely retarded. It just happened that someone randomly called them skills. He might have called them social "talents" as well. Or social "self-confidence-based-on-years-of-positive-reinforcement-due-to-not-being-unattractive". Just because they are called skills, doesn't mean you can just learn them in your 20s and make up for huge developmental gaps you acquired in your teenage years.

Everything else that you wrote is literally the most generic normie crap that is posted here everyday. And if someone replies to you negatively, you will complain about le toxic attitude and how dare people not accept your genius advice as absolute gospel.

Tell me Mr. Normie, what am I supposed to do if people jsut don't want to talk to me.
Every single partner that is being assigned to me, I try to talk to them, ask them questions and they give a brief answer and look at their phone instead of talking to me. They avoid making eye contanct when I see them on the campus. When we have a class together they pretend to not see me and sit somewhere else. Every single person for 5 years. But then I see the same people hanging out with others, they act normally. What am I supposed to do here? Be myself?

Beliefs are made by experiences.
Now realise the universe is neutral.
Nothing is inheritly good or bad, you literally get to decide what is good and bad ( and your ego does based on the idenity it is trying to protect)
Now realise that you can choose to experience everything as good.
Go back ato your previous experiences and restructure them into a positive. No matter the experience, try to get something positive out of it. Any new experience you have, view it as glass half full. ALWAYS think positive, never complain.
This is a brain muscle you must train as wll, it will nit be easy at first.
If you got beat up as kid, think "i have experience fighting. I am tougher than most people"
If you were rejected by a girl think "she was intimidated by me. She was probably having a bad day and it had noning to do with me. Maybe there was a family tragedy today and she is not in the mood" etc..
Do whatever it takes to interpret every single thing that happens to you as positive.
Yes they may be lies, but the negative things you tell your self are just as liekly to be lies, except the negative conclusions dont benefit you in anyway where as the positive ones do.
Always think positive no matter, restructure your previous experiences as psoitive and you will hav new beliefs.

If you were rejected by girls you may of came to the belief and conclusion that you are ugly. But you have no way of proving that, it is a lie. This probably caused you to stop trying with girls or indulge in self pity, both bad beliefs. If you r structure those "rejection" experiences as "that girl was having a bad day, it had nithing to do ith me. She wont even remember me now, if i see her again i can try again and it might work", "maybe she had been rejected thst day and just wanted to hurt you to feel better about herself, maybe she is insecure too and is afraid"

This is another skill u need to practice in rep

This is what I'm feeling right now. I just came back to college after 2 years and I fucking hate myself so much that I became motivated. I also always try to go out of my comfort zone to change. Every now and then, I still become depressed and I still can't make any friends, but I'm getting there.

>>29831464
You could try, statistically if you did it to enough girls youd end up with sex. Even if you go out and do that youre still gaining experience on how to tslk to grils.
Try it. What do you think is going to happen after you say it? Will she just give yiu a dirty look and walk away? Whats so bad about that. She might laugh, she might stand there and keep listening to see what else yiu have to say.
When i first started talking to girls i just made my goal to say hi and then walk away. I was surprised how many girls said hi back and kept standing their waiting for me to keep talking.
By tslking to lots you will eventusully learn the best way to show yiur intentions, but you cant know without practicing.
Just remmebr that the girl isnt hoping for you to fail, she wants you to do well, she is hoping you do well, she wants to meet a cool,guy.
Try going iut and telling the girls straught up you want to fuck them, you will be seriously surprised by the responses.

I've been morbidly obese for like 15 years and stressed losing weight for that same time. Just no desire at all to do it. I'd stick with it for a few days and see too slow progress while being super hungry and I'd ruin it.

Eventually one day I just said "just do it" and that was it. I started doing all the shit I half-assed. I log everything into myfitnesspal. I check and make sure I get 10,000 steps on my smartwatch. I eat significantly less and only eat when my stomach starts to rumble or I feel weak. I can now walk for about two hours straight. I've lost 50lbs. I save a bunch of cash not buying all that excess food.

Feels great. Now my success motivates me rather than just blindly telling myself to do it. Everyone's noticed my weight loss and comments about it.

Only negative is that I'm much hornier and subsequently lonelier because of it. I gave up on finding a GF when I was superfat because the only girls who like fat tubs are mentally deranged and always suicidal.

Yiu seriously wonder this after the way you just responded to me ?lol

Social skills are skills. If you were forced to interact with 10 or however many people ever single day you would evntually get better at it. It would be impossible not to gain experience and learn unless you have a medical condition.
You had a bad childhood and time in hugh school so you created a way of coping with it (i did as well) by blaming others, lookin for reasons to justify your behaviour and crwting an identity and ego to protect yourself from emotions and experiences,
Now thiugh you have the ability to control your life, not yiu parents or idiots in an environment like high school. Like i said in a previous post, we have to purposely and forcefully lesrn the thungs normies learned passively growing up because our childhoods/teens were fucked up. Its easier to learn this in your 20s than putting it off longer and grtting older. The only thing creeper than someone trying to learn social skills is someone who has no social skills
This may be generice advise but it is that for a reason.
And social skills is a skill. If you have a job for 8 hours a day, like it or not, no matter what the job is, you will get better at it after a while of doing it day after day. After 10000 hours yiu will master it. Socialising is exactly the same.

Yes the hardest part is getting started.

old robot here

i wasted my early-mid twenties being a nerd and selfish piece of shit. i didnt eat right. i didnt take care of myself. i hated myself (though i did not realize it). i did not work out. all i did was play video games and become a recluse. lost all friends.

eventually you get tired enough of your situation. you get tired of not living up to something greater than your current state. my advice to anyone looking to get out of a rut is PERSISTENCE. it will suck at first. start small. but the important thing is KEEP MAKING GOOD DECISIONS. make use of your time. eventually it will become a habit to make good decisions. you have to do this for a few months, and then it becomes a lifestyle change rather than just an ideal.

There is a youtube video with a guy called yuri bezmenov and he talks about people who are demoralized. Once people are demoralized you can show them all the evidence you want for something and even first hand physical proof but they will continue to refuse it.
I think you have been demoralised and there is nothing i or anyone can do to help you out until you (hopefully) have a scare realisation later in life.

I got motivated enough after seeing this post to make this.

You don't actually believe that anything you said here is actually helpful to anyone, right? You really think that you offered anything useful?
How can normies be so full of themselves to consider their ideas so genius that nobody could have possibly thought about it before they did?

I might or might not be a normie, I don't know the standard here. But actually just how fucked are the people here?

Anger

It's enough to fuel you fo 4-5 months

It began when I was bored out of my mind and decided to do something.
It didn't last too long.

At this precise moment, maybe 2% here are genuinely fucked up since this place has been overtaken by summer normalfags.

I smoke weed all day every day and I can't stop because it's the only thing I enjoy about being alive.

Motivation is stupid and easy. The only thing that matters is discipline.

>>29834294
Be happy you still enjoy that. I lost it a while ago. I still smoke though. Not completely sure why.

>>29834169

This. The power of hate and darkness conquers all.

>>29834328
The thing is that I don't even enjoy it that much breh, it's just the least bad thing in my life.

yes
when normies forced me to kiss a girl
2 happy weeks
then I went back to the same shitty low self esteem fuckup
>>
>>29834254

How fucked up is genuinely fucked up?

A lot of people here are just idiots who actually think the memes are funny, but there is still a cohort of people who are moderately to severely mentally ill who are close to or completely nonfunctional.
>>
>>29834169
And what about once those 4-5 months are over, and have been over since you were 13?
>>29834350
I can understand that. Drugs just make things a bit easier. Honestly the only drugs that actually feel like they fix me are opiates/opioids.

Sometimes it's not about motivation, it's about realising you need to do it, wether you like to or not, which comes down to discipline.

one step,

get off your ass and do it.

that is how you get motivated.

it is that simple.

If you want to change your life, you need to start with yourself.

LEARN TO LOVE YOURSELF FUCKING FAGGOTS!

>>29830101
set up goals when you're motivated

attempt to achieve them while you're not

I got this book called Sugar Blues by William Dufty. One of the most amazing books I've ever read. Not only talks about
how sugar hampers one's development but all the history behind it too. The secret history of health.

Anyway, tried for a few days and on the third day I could literally feel a void inside me shaped like a donut. It's gonna be easier quitting smoking than sugar in my case. I will peel off my skin and gnash my teeth at people in the process.

Trump motivated me to be happier and less degenerate.
Jump on the Trump train and make yourself happy again.

Try just saying "good morning" at first. This is acceptable in most European countries as well. Unless someone is clearly in a rush or preoccupied (i.e. phone, screaming child, reading, etc.), anyone will cheer up and is likely to return the phrase, or at least smile back.

1/10 times, this will not work. there are assholes about, and you will quickly notice that they are the exception.

Yes. Motivation helped me become fit after years of being fat. It also helped me finish a college degree that was out of my league and maintain my appearance enough attract women.

Do you want to know the secret of motivation?

Choose to be motivated. That's literally it. You have to make that mental commitment of doing something productive for yourself and keep reminding yourself of it every single day. Any time you feel drained, keep reminding yourself of your goals. Stick to a commitment every day for 2 solid months and by the end, it will be second nature to you. Eventually, the gains you get from being motivated will be so satisfying, that they will help you maintain motivation into the future.

The problem is if you hate yourself and don't give a fuck about your own life. Then basically nothing can be motivating.
