Bad habits I try to ditch
- Going to bed late (changing this habit is my biggest and hardest problem)
- Eating junk food, week-long cheat meals, emotional eating...food is always an issue for me
- Drinking coffee
- Spending time on Facebook and Instagram
- Spending time on Discord (replaced FB and IG for similar dopamine hit)
- Spending time on YouTube (I just keep finding new stuff that I add in "watch later" and then feel obliged to clear the stack)
- Too much TV/movies/Netflix (decade long habit that just made me more stupid and inert)
- Reading news portals (clickbait titles and entirely useless content, also anxiety enhancers)
- Hacker News - not as terrible as news portals but also unproductive and rarely satisfying
- Not respecting working hours - keep hanging on Slack past 7 pm or during weekends and thinking about work outside work hours adds to the stress
Update 2021/04/14:
So far I’m doing good job on 4, 7, 8 and 10 but got worse with 2, 3 and 5. Bed thing is on and off.
