Hidden flubugs
In life without knowing we can catch hidden habitual flubugs. Developing over time they turn into dependences. Like luggage on our backs, ones accomplishments are slowed and insight redused.
People live entire lives with flubugs including great leaders & those of wealth!
Just as rest and healthy food heal flue, getting rid of our unkown flubugs heal body, mind and spirt. Here's how I discovered my own flubugs!

Until 1900's it was never at all possible (in human history) to keep a pen & notebook in your pocket. Only possible for last 100 years. In former times to remember, people engraved, tattooed, and meditated. Self journaling didn't much exist, and wasn't mentioned in holy write; as such its still isn't well understood.
People may think journaling is perhaps to write about your day (maybe for future posterity). Franklin touches on what self journaling is for. In his 20's he used a journal worksheet to break free from his liberal lifestyle and partying.He began self journaling, daily tracking his top character flaws, he went on to discover many adventions and became City mayor.
In my own life, while, doing volunteer work in my 20's I caught a flue-bug like addiction. Many years later, it had compounded to form very binding addictions; I'd lost alot. Then I started that study journal idea and with it broke all my addictions! You can do the same. — heres my Testimonial
It is likely human addictions are a direct cause of our pandemic. During our world wide virus epidemic, now is a great time to challenge own addictions.

It helps you course correct mentally away from what's unhealthy.

Quick review your worksheet often, (several times per day) to help stay on track. It is known that taking time out in thought, helps refocus.
At end of week, review of your worksheet, then create a journal entry (as mentioned above). If you only do one thing, commit to a 5 minute review at end of week, it helps you stay on track.
E.G.
Turn your journal worksheet items into an acronym so that they are easy to remember and easy to share. When you see your logo, you’ll quickly know what item to work on.
For coaching, consider asking a friend /someone to be your adviser, simply someone to help you keep on track.
People that meditate include: Taoist, Buddhist, Islam, Hindu, and Monks, Judaism, Christian, Catholic, Atheists, Yoga, Health & Psychology orgs...
Muslims often do similar (5 times a day), to remember what is important. India has godlike statue with many arms; one belief is meditation gives you many arms; you can accomplish much more with meditation.
Try this:
Take time out during your day; find a quite place, away from noise, for quite thought (have notebook and pen) with you.
While in thought, avoid focusing on what your don't have, what is lost, and what's wrong with life. Instead focus only on what you do have and can appreciate:
Ability to walk, talk, see and hear. Running water, hot water, toilets, shower, glasses, clothes, car / bike, ability to read, electricity, computer, language, communication, phone, writing. ♫ All of that was not available to any other human generations.
During your 'time out', only think of what you have. Careful as your mind may be conditioned to think negatively, e.g. saying "yeah, though I've lost so much..." and "I've been taken advantage of..." redirect away from that thought to instead think only what you have.
Many teach that if you focus on what you have, then what's lost will someway be recovered. After, consider a journal entry. Optionally consider what you might do to be appreciative of what we have.
If you try that daily, you'll find problems & life obstacles will begin moving out of your way. Here are videos that relate to this topic:
Funny gratitude video, Meditation, Breathing, Breath.
It's common to get discouraged. If so, add discouragement to your list for 1 week. You can beat it, as it usually leads back to a bad habit. When you think discouraging thoughts; note what's going through your mind to journal, though dont dwell on it as that only bring more discouragement.
Instead shift your focus to only on what your options are, you do have, and your strengths. You may have more then others, focus to only what you have control, this is hardest the first week, after that it gets easier, you mind wants to say wait, I've lost this much / I've been wronged… instead jump over those thoughts.

Throughout history exercise was not a virtue, a reminder to exercise was not needed: Average human life span was perhaps 30+ years of age, most people did physical work all day long. Perhaps because of that exercise didn't make into scripture /holy write.
As such, today with sit down jobs and humans living three times as long, majority of us unknowingly [suffer] simply from lack of daily cardio (a hidden flubug) this is perhaps greatest flubug of our time. It effects our mental and physical state of being, our happiness, as well as decision making. If you grow up active as kid, jogging/exersize can seem kind of odd. For many, secret of exersize is a found treasure.video
Here is a secret to starting: find a way to get past the first thought of inconvenient feeling (at the thought of exercise) do it anyways (at home and or jog), then once finished, here is key: if you make a journal entry of how you felt before and after. You'll be insanely surprised. Reading that another day empowers you. Commit to trying that for 1 week. If not try it only one day, then Journal your thoughts afterword.
Add cardio to your workbook list. Commit to 1 week, remember, success is not whether you exercised that day, success is whether you checked of the box (either ✓Yes /*No); simply keeping a daily record, and then reviewing at the end of week surprisingly brings success. Not whether you succeeded in exercising that day, grade your success on daily documenting & journaling to self on results.
If you grade yourself on whether you exercised or not, you're more likely to fail, only grade your success based on whether you reviewed your workbook (checked off item) and did a week review.
Notes
Cardio is most neglected of all habits. Has a huge impact on state of mind and ability to be optimistic under stress. A small % of people exercise to much.

Music has a big influence on mood. If you listen to music, be conscious of how you feel afterwards. Perhaps most important make a journal entry of how you felt before you listened, at start, and when you stopped and how you felt when you stopped. Radio music motivates, though can become distractive.
Non-radio music includes: theme songs, instrumental, meditative, mantra, marching bands, as well as music from nature like wind chimes, water chimes, water falls & fountains. A modern wind chime is inexpensive. Home made windchimes are easy to make.Many people don't listen to music radio & internet radio, including Monks, spiritualists, people of religion, and ordinary people. Give that a try, 1 week, journal how you feel after.

In ancient times writings didn't really need to cover healthy eating as a word of wisdom; humans lived very short lives, people did lots of physical work with very few sit down jobs. Healthy eating was not much included in holy writings.
Because of increased human life, sit down jobs, lack of physical work, processed foods with preservatives and sweeteners, addictive junk foods, people today are eating unhealthy and have food sweetener addictions.Eating healthy helps your mind and body. Lots of veggies, a good amount of grains, and some fruit.
Instead of Meat, substitutes like walnuts, almonds, beans, soybeans, lentils... are very healthy to your body.

Though this websites goal is to focus on (oneself) vs what's outside of one's control. Here below is one other example area that may be beyond ones control.
After discovering how to overcoming addiction, though you may feal great, like a new person, you may have debts that are perhaps not of your own cause! This often affecting individuals with small businesses. Yet still some of society believe those debts should be paid /resolved /fulfilled.
Depending on size of your apparent debts, e.g. school loans, taxes, etc. they can weigh on your new life. How to approach those debts can be an unsure of course. Having whooped your addictions, using perhaps study journal idea to keep on track, you may be thinking of starting a new venture project that is helpful to others and would pay off your debts.
If that project would generate a tun of money and could potentially conflict with big business, highly consider choosing a project that is smaller; that way you reduce possibility of burying yourself on a large project that could take 5 times longer then you think, then after all that it could still fail. As well picking up that project (beginning that project) could crash you. E.g Try a project that would take perhaps 2 months. That way if it takes five times longer it still is less then 1 yr. Choosing to pursue a 1 year project may take the next 10+ years of your life, and meanwhile in the end fails to launch.Life purpose, Immigrant, 8 habits, Quick to Judge, Do The Right, Saudi Comedian: Maz, Regard, Nobel Minds Chat, World Religions, Alcohol, Gut feeling, Self Mastery, Escaping Porn, Great experiment, Not Your Problem
