I found out about this in late 2023 i was in class and coincedentally one of my classmates found the blackpill already (almost roped now but hes doing fine) well we were joking around about it scrolling tiktok when all the chico jordan stuff brainrot was still around, well then we cane across a actual post with ideal ratios and stuff that can tank ur appearance and then it hit me kindoff my eye area was very bad i was overweight and severely reccesed. I didnt think much of it until early this year got rejected moved schools and noone wanted to speak to me till i looked it up and there i foundout ab lookism but i was starting with my gym journey i couldnt care less but in the summer when it reallly hit me bcus vacation was over i jus waited till i have school it was the most insecure i have ever been in my life legit turned the other way when walking down the street if i saw someone but i said to myself, comeon try this self improvement thing so i started cutting weight and it worked maintained all my muscle but then a roof jus got put above me from august 2024 till this day i have made 0 progress nothing i gained some knowledge i know EXACTLY what to do in my teenage years but i truly jus cant commit for more then 4 days normally idk whats wrong w me but thankfully im getting BSSO sometime next year soi may be able to enjoy my teenage years for a bit heading to highschool too and i skipped 3 classes so idk how thatll workout being 3 years younger then my class mates but yeah idek if trying these last 2 months are worth it really

Holy crickets
 
Ngl had to ask ChatGPT to summarize this, PLEASE ADD BREAKS IN YOUR PARAGRAPHS, it's literally so hard to read 10 lines of pure text back to back, had an aneurysm tryna pull that off.

Anyway, motivation can make you start something, but you need discipline to actually keep it going, they say that motivation is an emotion, which means it fluctuated with time. This is likely what has happened, you were running the engine on pure motivation and thought that would keep you going forever. Apparently not.

Despite "discipline" being sold as the answer to this issue most of the time I believe that solution is not really helpful at all because it fails to explain how to develop discipline at all, mainly because discipline is grueling to build, so instead of worrying about any of that shit just build systems and routines. Literally, having a protocol or routine for everything will make your progress very easy and consistent, I'm unsure what "keep going" means in this context, but if it means keeping up with your looksmaxxing routines, then just take your day, set a time and tell yourself "I'll do XYZ at A day, at B time." Bonus point if you can create digital, or even better, physical checklists.

That's kinda the best advice I can give you, you can do more research in this topic, but the bottom line is... create a protocol for your life, so precise and clear that you just can't avoid it. If you have a date for it, an hour for it, a limited time for it, and you make sure you're very clear about what you have to do exactly, step-by-step, you simply won't miss a single day.

Dude. Genuinely tysm god bless u man and i will certainly try this since i got free time ill jus focus on getting my steps and try to go train somewhere and ofc my diet on par. And sorry for the bad things im on my phone jus typing it out lol, tysm and goodnight to you
 
I know exactly how you feel, I clicked the post because the title resonated. I started actively trying self-improvement like a month ago, as you can see from my posts I did see some progress but ultimately, whenever someone takes a picture of me I am still ugly and will remain that way so feel there ie no change, of the advice I have received such as ' get a tan, take minox etc ' I am basically just buying supplements hoping it will fix me..

As someone else trying to change I think maybe the things that cost money are the things we should avoid, we want to look better, and be in insane shape when we can't even form basic habits; like waking up on time, we're too greedy for our own good, I don't know how much the gym changed you but you also said you made 0 progress despite knowing exactly what to do, I think the majority of people are this way.

Basicailly as someone's a similar / more fucked situation as you my advice / where I have seen some progress is starting small with the tiny habits, set like 3 things at a time, wake up early (so you have more time to live/ improve ) , fix your diet ( prevent/ resist internal damage accumulating further ) and pursue 1 thing you find cool as the final thing whether that's getting better better at drawing, running or the body you want. once you free up a space and one of those becomes a habit, depending on your lifestyle you'll likely find you now have time to add another habit ( skincare, hair/ fashion sense , monemaxing/starting an online business ) . This way you start from an elevated point and because of this every time you try the next greedier goal you do so from a better starting point, sure waking up 6am and then going out to run after sounds super easy and lame to you maybe but it's something that in 23 years I have always wanted to be able to do yet never have.
