Well, it sounds like you know how to get it.
It's the execution that matters.
yes
That's where people fall off.
Temptation.
yes
i'm fallen to that quite a few times
Eat enough protein too
Falling off is okay, everyone falls off. Just get back too it.
i eat a shit ton of meat and peanut butter
so i think i have protein covered
Make sure it's good peanut butter
So you're not killing your arteries
ok
Fruit.
yeah i'm gonna start adding more fruits and vegetables into my diet
because i tend to be a pretty picky eater lmao
I dont eat any chocolate anymore
I am at at least 100 days nofap
Diet should be pretty healthy, I got a good immune system and I regularly take a blood sample to see if I got all my nutritions
I need to exercise more
I should try to take cold showers again
I'm studying pretty hard, but my results are not as good as I want them to be
If you want some tips for studying, perhaps taking a 15-minute break once an hour will help, if you don't already. Also, whatever you study ~15 min before sleep will be what is best retained, so make sure you do your final Essential Points Review before going to bed, maybe when you're doing automatic stuff like brushing your teeth or washing your face. And if you're allowed to chew gum or have mints/tic-tacs/candies during tests, you could try to associate a class and study sort with a flavour and smell. Helps some people with recall. Hope this helps!
Have you guys heard of the Mind Palace memory technique - for studying?
Yes
Its where you imagine a palace in your mind and you place things that you want to remember in different rooms.
that's
weird
it works by utilizing spacial memory instead of .. other memory
Self Improvement book reccomendations?
Not really, they dont work
Focus on reading classical lit.
Go for, healthy diet, nofap, exercise and developing sound political ideas
Pretty much any western author is a good place to start.
Depending on your reading comprehension level, you may want to start with novelists and work your way to philosophy.
Orwell and Huxley are really good, and important authors to read.
Then to Nietzshe, Decartes, Bertrand Russel, Aquinas, etc....
Also, though he's not technically western, Solzhenitsyn is really important as well, specifically Gulag Archipilago.
Also, important psychology works as well, Freud(Though he missed the mark on a few things, still very enlightening), Jung, Neumann, Becker etc..
How to Win Friends and Influence People by Dale Carnegie. Sometimes known as 'The Art of the Violenly Unstoppable Doormat.'
Yeah, Carnegie is great as well.
That is a decent self-help book. The only good one I know.
Oh, I forgot Dostoevsky.
Any study in Philisophy should start with Plato or the Pre-Socratics.
