the path to truely finding your inner self? WE DRUGGIES HAVE GOALS THREAD 2014!!

I love rambling and never quite get them down,

So..

Get off etizolam completely (down to 5mg finding it hard though)

keep up with the gym 3 times a week (to help me physically and mentally)

become a better player with better disclipline and way of living.

Move out of england!

There we go, i got them out :)


Nice :) Getting 'off' any drug is a great step. Not sure what better player means though ?

Move out of England - big step where do you fancy ? Why leave the UK?
 
as in poker player, n thank you its a big step but i am on the right path.

I see nothing here for me anymore, i like some things about england, but i am thinking of malta or portugal just because i feel i want to live in a diff country on my own, get out of england within a year maybe less

Read your previous post - your on the right path my friend :). May I ask why Malta / Portugal ?
 
I would have to say I don't like it - the contrast on the flooring / walls is a bit stark ? If you look at the spacing of the beams - you go living room, kitchen and bathroom. Not my type of space :)

Few years doing up ? Did you turn a profit ? I'm going to be building soon - three or four floors, middle income and will be making a nice profit.
I agree. I hate the holly hobby kitchen and the apartments I'm looking at have more exposed brick and original timber beams and a more industrial feel. However I can purchase bare bones for around $800k and with less than $50k to install new kitchen and bathrooms then flick it for over $1million. Having said that I plan to live in this one until my kids finish high school so we plan to design it for our tastes now, not the markets. Think New York style lofts.

Being inner city the couple of car parks alone will be what increases in value the most. I was amazed to see the cost of a manhattan car park was comparable with what it costs in Brisbane, and that's even taking in the ridiculous NY parking taxes.
 
Get off buprenorphine (wednesday start)
Get off diazepam (sometime before the new academic year, but maybe a slow taper down and the final jump off at christmas)
Do well on the resit I've got (turned up to exam having been awake for three days using crack/smack/benzo/booze and failed even though I got a first in the coursework)
Sort out getting all the relevant extra help I'm allowed subsequent to my differential diagnosis the other day
Get my shoulder fixed (meh....if someone would like to send £5k my way that would be just superb)
Find somewhere more long term to live in a nice shared house
Continue to get out on the bike lots
If I can get my shoulder fixed then get back to doing kickboxing/mma
Start writing my food coloumn for the uni newspaper
Don't fall back in to abusing opiates/benzos/cocaine/crack/booze
Do some voluntary work (going to do it at a little community farm so I can learn more about growing food)

If I can achieve that by the end of the year I'll be a happy bunny.:)

edit: Forgot to say, I've done a bit of cooking in my time so if anyone needs any advice just ask.:)

I like the exposed brick, industrial look - were going to build from scratch, keep the spaces very simple, two bedrooms aim for the Middle market and should be able to clear about 2.5million AUD per build. Three or four people invested but should still be a nice side line - once we have a few builds we may do some of the higher end builds (too early to say).
 
So guys, the path, the journey you have been down, do you think it has taught things about yourself in that you have truely found your inner self? by that i mean do you feel at ease with who you are and understand life and what it means to you.

Do you have goals? we are after all just normal people :) ...

Post your thoughts on how you have developed as a person throughout your experiences (share them they interest me!)

Post your goals , whether its getting out the house to see a friend that you havn't seen in a while, saving up for a trip away, whether its getting off the gear by the end of the year, hey it cud be to become a millionaire by 2015 share them! i wanna see our goals, and hopefully with the good guys we have in here we can help one another along and push people forward in acheiving , im sorry i dont post much here anymore (trying more to) but i wanna get to know this community still and hopefully be some kind of help in here, i am after all on the path to recovery and have big goals for myself..

Getting off etiz,

becoming stronger physically and mentally,

experiencing other cultures (travel the world),

Find a S/O who i love personality wise

find who i actually am and what i want in life, i know its to be happy but what is it that makes me happy, im rambling now because iv'e had some morphine and etiz, but i love you EADD'rs and wanna get more involved in these forums..

Anyways its sunday so im sure i wont be getting much responses today tomorrow (unless your tripping) and maybe this thread wont even hit off, most of my threads i write i delete and dont post as my english through lack of practice has become really bad and im pretty embarrassed, its half 4 i should be asleep <3

move thread if u want , or i will delete, but i really can relate to alot on these boards (some more so than others) but that is the world we live in .

Many regards, Bare_head

hahahahah @ thread
 
By the end of the year:

Find somewhere suitable to live
Get my shoulder fixed
Be trainging muaythai/mma again
Get a first on my economics resit (I tuned up to the first one haing been awake for days tooting rocks like a cool kid, first on the coursework).
If I do really well on that exam (no excuse for less than 90 for me really given I've covered it all three times) maybe get my first year average past a first.
Get and stay clean from benzos/opiates/crack/cocaine/ketamine and drink less.
Get off benzos
Flagrantly disregard the working relation between me and my flame haired BAT team leader and see inside her knickers. She has a boyfriend, and I'm not one for being an arsehole, but I would happily set my conscience aside to get the chance to ravish her. I've met her mother already which is a good sign. Did a nice angelic smile.
Earn some money
Become a PAL tutor.
Get a handle on what is going on with the rest of my mmoney (where are my dividends etc)
Just live and be physically, spiritually and mentally well
Be in the right frame of mind for attacking my degree where it matters...got mostly firsts already but resuls have been marred by years out of the indusry and a relpase
Start lenring spanish.

...if I can achieve that by the years out I'll be very happy and I shall rewardd myself with the purchase of an Alfa GTV in black with tan leather. Wouldn't hurt to see a few nore frontbums though.=D
 
Nice one, Owen. You can achieve whatever you want to achieve if you put your mind to it. You've already come so far by getting off the subs. So many people struggle with that - and you're doing it. The amount of stories I've read where people have failed n are struggling. Be proud of your achievements, try hard at future achievements n the rest will follow.

Good luck in the exam - I wish you all the very best.

That gave me a chuckle about your team leader hahahaha i can't act all moralistic there - I fell for my ex when he was still married n started a relationship not long after she had left him.

Have you heart of SMART goals?

Good luck, Owen

I've been to a few meetings, but the repitious asking of idiotic questions annoyed me.

I have almsot heard of smart goals...

Specific
Measurable
Achievable
Relavant
Timed

iirc...

It relates to essentially my entire course, how to make and achieve them, but was particularly broughy up on a recent research product. All linked is with decision making tables and decision trees.
 
stop procrastinating ffs
get really fit
meditate more seriously
becoming (way) better at the guitar
taking the driving license (exam is this friday wish me luck :) )
becoming a black belt in kung fu (will take +/- 6 years)

in a month or so I'll finish my exams and will probably take 1 free year, so I got plenty of time %)
 
I just came back from town with a guitarso I guess I can add lern guitar to that list, as well as piano whn I find a space big enough.

Yea that's it. Wasn't wanting to be negative just wanted to check with you because you don't want to make unrealistic goals that you don 't achieve as it would be counter-productive.
