~Personal Story~

Ladies and gentleman you better sit down
I got some shit to confess.

I‘ve always had an addictive personality

Everything I touched became an addiction

Played the first video game at age 8
-couldn’t stop until age 23

Watched porn for the first time at age 11
-couldn’t stop until age 22

Smoked my first cigarette at age 12
-couldn’t stop until age 23

Pivoted into vaping
-stopped at age 24

First time drinking alcohol at age 12
-drank almost every weekend until age 23
Often even under the week

Smoked my first joint at age 13
-smoked daily until age 23 (10 mf‘ing years)

Did cocaine first time at age 18
-did it every Single weekend until age 22

I also tried other drugs like speed and extasy but didn’t like them as much as coke

That shit is real expensive I can tell you that
And to finance this addiction I then started dealing with drugs (mainly weed)
And even tho i earned some good fucking money most of it ended up in my nose and lungs

I never robbed people face to face but I did steal a lot of bikes and other stuff

I still managed to get okay grades in school because I always saw myself as a „smart“ kid
But how smart can someone be who is throwing away his life like I did

I also managed to still hit the gym regulary (somehow)

But apart from that I was outside the whole fucking day living a real „street life“(not as cool as it sounds)

And when I got home I fapped to some nasty ass porn
(Like a fucking weirdo wtf was wrong with me)

I got caught high(weed) by my parents a couple of times but they didn’t knew how bad things really were.
I knew that things had to change but just couldn’t make the first step

Until one day
It was a friday afternoon and me and my friends already drank a few beers and smoked a bit
I started laying 3 fat lines of coke on my phone when I suddenly got an incoming call.

-Mom-

just visualise how fucked up this situation is

She never called me so I knew that something must be wrong

Of course I didn’t answer
And of course we still snorted these lines

About a minute later I got a text from her that our dog pocoyo died.
A street dog from spain we rescued like 10 years before.

I immediately broke down in tears because I truly loved that guy
I ran home and we buried him in our garden

During the „funeral“ something clicked in my head
The whole family gathered and buried our loved dog
And I was drunk, high and on cocaine
Thats when I asked myself :

Who the fuck am I ?

What am I doing with my life ?

That day I made the decision to completely turn my fucking life around
I immediately stop smoking weed and doing coke
And only drank alcohol on very rare occasions

I pivoted these addictions into smoking a concerning amount of cigarettes, playing video games ,porn and binging YouTube
Not good but it worked

Then I stumbled on self improvement.

And once again I became addicted.

I watched every video I could find.
I definetly learned alot and always took notes to revisit
At that time I was about 22 years old

It took a while to quit the other addictions which I used to replace the drugs.
But I did it. I replaced them step by step

I replaced
-video games
-porn & hookups
-weed
-nicotine
-alcohol
-cocaine

With
-reading & learning
-journaling & writing
-the gym
-a loving relationship
-meditation
-chess ( I always loved that 1vs1 component in games )

Now I‘m 26.
My life isn’t perfect and I still struggle with some bad habits.
But I will never stop improving myself.

As Albert Einstein said:
„Once you stop learning, you start dying“

I did it all by myself which im fucking proud of.
But you don’t have to.

Get some help before it’s too late.

Asking others for help is not a weakness
It’s a strength that many people don’t have.

If you‘re also struggling with addictions feel free to DM me.
Maybe I got some first tips to help you.

Thank you for listening friends

I defeated my self-doubt.

How?

-I looked at where I came from
-I looked at how far I’ve already made it
-And stopped comparing myself with others

Remember who the fck you are.

[PuschUp @pusch_up]

@thinkingblx Finally brother!

If someone deserved it then it’s definitely you!

[PuschUp @pusch_up]

It's not healthy being well adjusted to a sick society.

[PuschUp @pusch_up]

Our brains are wired to avoid discomfort.

It’s a survival instinct that served us for thousands of years.

In the past comfort had to be earned.

-a warm shelter
-a full stomach
-a safe environment

These were the rewards for hard work.

But today things are a little different.

Comfort is just a click away.

You don’t need to hunt for food.
→ You can order it

You don’t need to build shelter.
→ You can rent it.

You don’t even need to leave your house to socialize.
→ You can do it online.

But it's not the same.

And it's making us soft.

Instead of pushing ourselves to grow…

We settle for what’s easy.

We became a generation that avoids discomfort at all costs.

Yes…

You might feel comfortable.

But are you satisfied?

Or are you just avoiding the things you know you should do?

Real satisfaction can only happen by overcoming hard shit.

Shit you never knew you could overcome.

Log off.
Step out of the comfort zone that modern life has created for you.
Do some hard shit.
And don’t fcking give up.

@jacksmindfuzz Im so wet rn

[PuschUp @pusch_up]

I don't listen to music in the gym.

In the set...
I like to really feel the muscle.

In between the sets...
I like to think.

But when I still do...
It's one of those two.

“My creativity is gone…”

Yeah I’ve been there too…

It sucks.

But funny enough…

There’s a simple solution to this.

I still remember staring at the blank google doc.

No words written.

The cursor was blinking waiting for me to start.

It felt like this lil mf was making fun of me.

An hour went by…

But nothing.

It felt like my mind was empty

But that was wrong…

My mind was full of bullshit because I’ve scrolled my timeline looking for “inspiration” before I started writing.

And then I’ve realized it.

True creativity comes from within.

From YOUR
-feelings
-thoughts
-experiences

Not from the trash you consumed while looking for “inspiration”.

Creativity can’t flow when you’re constantly bombarding your mind.

It needs room to breathe.

So the solution to your "creative burnout" is simple:

Disconnect.

Do something that doesn’t involve screens.
-walk
-journal
-just THINK

Or whatever else works for you.

Start small.

Set aside 30 minutes each day for “offline creativity time”.

And watch your ideas overflow.

The ideas you’ve been searching for are already within you.

You just need to give them some space to come to life.

Disconnect to reconnect.

I used to doubt my abilities.

But now I trust myself.

I’m confident that I can do it.

I know I will figure things out.

Confidence is built through competence.
Competence is built through action.

The US average screen time is 7h and 3 mins.

The result ?

A F*CKED UP FOCUS.

Literally the ENEMY of every creator.

I reduced my own screen time from 7h to 1h a day…

And I am MORE PRODUCTIVE than ever before.

Want to know how ?
