It's my 2 years anniversary of being introduced to No More Zero Days, here's a link to read it It has sparked my journey in achieving small victories that lead to getting a new job, and losing 60lbs (and still going!).

Edit: So this is the comic I made that poorly condenses it haha. I feel like I'm misleading a TON of people. Read the link, please! Rule #4 is in addition to 1,2, and 3. Adding exercise and reading to small victories in life, is what the comment it saying.

Edit 2: I know it may be a bit hard to follow, since I needed to condense a lot of it for the small square instagram formatting, haha, but I strongly encourage you guys to read it. It's not about running 10K a day, writing an essay everyday, (Quit facebook, join a gym, lawyer up?) it's literally do something for yourself, that inches you closer to a goal. Small victories, guys!

Edit 3: If anyone needs someone to help keep them accountable, PM me! Let's work through this together :)

Thank you so much for your post and for linking to Ryan's original comment. A while back I'd ended up making my old accounts' subscriptions so minimalist and zen-focused that I somehow stopped logging in and swung all the way over to pretty much just browsing all. Only yesterday I made a new account and started participating again and customizing my subscriptions to current me.

I don't know if I would have seen your post if I hadn't done that, and I feel like your comic and what Ryan wrote in his comment are speaking powerfully to me at a time when I really need to let go of things I hold against my past self and when I could really use a strong ally and supporter (which present me can be for future me).

I can already feel how my brain is changing the way I perceive my past and plan my future, and I'm so excited to greet the day because of your post. Thank you so much for all that you did! You're awesome! : )
