mmm fuck that. I think i will watch the clock and wait for my shit job to be over so i can enjoy my life.

When I was 23, some 30.years ago, I stopped partying/going to club.

It's good that you find the will to change your situation.

Followed instructions to imitate clock.

Failed

Stuck going around in circles, always ending where I started from.

Don't worry about the folks that keep bugging and occupying your attention.

You going look back at this in 5 years and be like wtf was I going through. You going be good my guy. Keep pushing.

"Consistent effort is best no matter how little", I feel you, good luck.

Dude. This. I have no words. Just perfect.

I'm 32 this year and only just starting sorting my life out in my early 20s I was in jail, by 23 I was injecting drugs got sober after a while but once I hit 30 I realised alot of the mistakes and laziness. Now I'm pretty much sober (medically prescribed weed) and the occasional once or twice a year party where I will really enjoy myself. And I'm a mature aged apprentice for a very prestigious company in my country and state. At tafe the teachers and the students go on about how lucky I am to be where I am working. I had to leave my home town and sell all my belongings to move to the city though

Never give up mate things will work out but you have to push hard and never give up there were so many times I almost gave up getting fucked around with interviews and dtuff like that but I just wouldn't take no for an answer and kept applying and looking and trying until i got to where I an now

Get checked for ADHD and do some research into the symptoms. people can say weed all they want but when I got medicated for ADHD it helped a lot, I didn’t need to stop smoking.

Obviously nobody understood my comment and downvoted me into oblivion, I simply was referring to how you said daughter, when it says "son, his" with a picture of a boy.

It always helps to have your goals listed in front of you every day. That way you not only think about them but also keep them as reminders of the reason why you are continuing with your hard work. Check this video by Simon Sinek https://vm.tiktok.com/ZMYQJc9qG/

Stop comparing your process to others, only compare to yourself and realise how you start to grow while getting closer to your goals! https://vm.tiktok.com/ZMYQeejCo/

Jan Levinson, I presume?

How am I supposed to know what the clock is doing if I'm not watching it? Instructions unclear.

this right here my man, the difference between a person who smokes during the day and a person who smokes only at night is, well, night and day. leave your daytime hours to ambition and dreams and fall into a cozy shmizzle as you reflect on what you’ve done that day. i promise it feels much better that way.

Respectfully.

Hard to read your story, even harder that you don't know spelling or how to properly frame paragraphs ! Not being mean, just a tip!

Go for it! Sometimes we ourselves are the limit, try and get better inside and out, a great future is waiting for you!

I think that you have a good plan. Once you are feeling like you have things settled and you have made the improvements you want to see in your life, be cautious and discerning about dating. Women aren't all no-good. People of both genders are susceptible to overlooking character flaws in those they are attracted to. It is human nature.

You will eventually find someone better, and you will later see that the first relationship was not that great. Early relationships are often shallow and don't withstand the winds of change. Too many get married too young, then wonder why they can't get along when the passion is gone.

That hits even harder.

You got this kid. Just by writing what you did shows a lot of maturity. The biggest piece of advice I can give you is, don't hang with people that will bring you down and put on the peer pressure. I wish you the best!
