That will take me a while to do, and I'd like to start paying down my debt. Maybe three is reasonable to start?

How much savings do you feel you should have at any given time? I am working on building mine up again, but also have to pay student loans. I was wondering what you feel is reasonable to have in the bank before I start throwing money towards my student loans. I know about the Dave Ramsey $1000...

I am currently on my self care journey, but I try to make sure that I get in enough water every day, and read on a daily basis. This helps me to disconnect from social media and my screen in general. I think the reading is my favorite part. Beautiful words really inspire me.

Thanks everyone! I think I will start off trying to exercise in the morning, just because I am afraid I might put it off if I wait until too late in the day. I enjoy writing more, so maybe I will be more likely to do it even when I am tired. That's my logic any way lol. And if it doesn't work, I...

Thanks for the responses. I think you two are right. I will pick one and get started. As much as it would be wonderful to learn them all, I should really just invest in one, and at least see how that is going and if I feel able to handle another. Any examples of a language learning community site?

So, I have interest in several languages: Japanese, Arabic, Farsi, Hebrew, Spanish, and French....but I feel like it is impossible to learn all of them. I am 33 and have a full time job. Do you have any tips? I know that ultimately, I will probably just have to choose, but, I want to learn them...

That makes a lot of sense. I always thought that getting up early would be good in order to get it out of the way, but I think I am going to try it the way that you suggested, and see if I am consistent. Then maybe when I get home, I can get in a little writing time. Thanks for the advice!

So, in a couple of days, I am moving to a new country to teach English as a second language, and I want to use this opportunity for self improvement. I want to get a regular workout routine, eat in a healthier way, and have a regular writing schedule. As a teacher, I will probably be getting up...

Hi! So glad you are considering it. I definitely think you should bite the bullet and try it. If you HATE it, just delete the video. I was hesitant to get in front of the camera as well, but I think it is valuable to see yourself and how you discuss things and use your body. I noticed that I...

Congratulations on your smoke-free life! That is such a huge accomplishment! You have every right to be proud!! I would be too. :) Keep on kicking tail!

I have started keeping a video journal over the past couple months in addition to my regular writing one (was watching Felicity and got inspired), and I have noticed that they benefit me differently. I think the video allows me a faster stream of consciousness, while the writing helps slow down...

I actually hadn't thought to go outside in the morning, but this is actually a great idea. Thanks for the suggestion! I am going to try this and see if it makes any difference. I am not a morning person at all lol

It also might be helpful to start with something very small. Whatever you think that you can do, make it smaller than that, so that it is easier to stick to, and then build on it. The small wins build up your self- esteem and then you can go further.

Hi! I am working on self growth, and looking for books you might have read that helped you. I generally like things with a more spiritual lean that talk about meditation and stuff like that. Any suggestions?
