Hello comrades and welcome to the fourth improvement megathread of January! 
One more week to go, there is still time to make some progress and finish the first month strong.
How was your week?
Do you have any plans for next week?
Good luck with your goals! 
Almost done with dry January, a whole month alcohol free!
I now want to start on a bigger challenge: reclaiming my attention span. Not only do I want to be able to have the attention span to handle larger workloads that might actually benefit me like learning a new skill/hobby, or applying to more jobs, but I also want to become better at dealing with boredom.
I spend WAY too much time here and it’s not healthy (nor good opsec) to use this website as a personal diary.
What are some good ways to start getting my attention span back? I’m thinking of reading some of the physical books I have just to start and I hope to also figure out what I want to do in life to the point I’m taking classes again.
Hell yeah, congratulations on the sober streak!
I do journaling and it’s the best habit I’ve ever developed. I highly recommend it.
I agree, reading physical books is a great idea to improve your attention span. I think mindfulness and meditation are also good. Mindfulness just means paying full attention to whatever you’re doing. I like to listen to podcasts every day but I make sure to have some mindful activities where I’m just focusing on the thing I’m doing. Especially when I’m eating food or going for a walk. For meditation, I recommend installing any free meditation app (I use Insight Timer) and listening to guided meditations.
Communism is built through being with the homies online, but also doing stuff offline. Totally undestandable.
