I stopped smoking weed and videogames years ago. I wasn't an obsessive type A back then but my goals made me that way. Now I lift daily (Soviet Periodization just like in Rocky IV), eat clean Keto for my brain and read my books (the most painful part).
I'm so productive now even in the worst economy I always have some skill to build on that will give me sure fire returns end of year. I learned to take the least risky and most utility route in these unstable years learning hands on practical skills. It took forever to undo the damage and atrophy of public school and Boomer dependency nagging but I made it brehs. I live in a HOUSE with my own fridge and dishwasher while everyone I went to highschool with is cramming mud babies into slum apartments.
The soul crushing boredom makes me almost cry uncle and grab a joint but I know all this success would go up in smoke if I took that drag. That frustration is the pressure that gets you the house. That tension in boredom gets you to finish the book. Only game I play now is Civ V or any given skill simulator.
