growth

what have you done to try improve yourself this year? what have you tried but failed at? what have you succeeded at?
 
I have tried to train myself to be more tolerant with other drivers on the road, socialize more, and get through school. So far I succeeded at socializing more, still working on school, and failed at the tolerance.
 
Losing weight. I've lost quite a bit in the last few months but still a long way to go.

I tried and failed with online dating. Ugh I guess it's not for everybody!

Good on you. I've been trying this, too, and only in the last month or so have really put a lot of effort into it. At least now is the only times I've started seeing results.

I've had less success in staying mentally healthy and keeping my emotions in check. I've had a lot of sad and angry moments hit me without warning and trying to get back to normal when that happens isn't easy and I often let it affect the people around me even when I'm making an effort not to.
 
I have tried to learn Japanese but I left it for studies and for the thing I maked a improve in my sketches!!!

You should give Japanese another go!

Anyways, I've been sticking to my goal of eating healthier and cutting out greasy/fatty foods for the most part. I feel SO much better than I did this time last year.
 
this year, I made an attempt to branch my social life out, which helped so much that I cannot even put it into words. I made new friends that are so much better than my old ones were, I have a comfortable social circle (now that I'm at college it's kinda splintered but for awhile there it existed), etc. I also took Romantic Strides I'd never taken before which didn't end up working out quite as I'd hoped but the fact that I tried is good enough for me. shows something. for now though I'm focusing mainly on my studies as far as personal growth goes, I think. honestly I'm not really sure.
 
i've made multiple strides in mental health - finally getting the right combination of meds, going to therapy (even if i loathe the cow), sticking strong to my policy of not letting anyone walk over me, etc. i'm also making plans to go to back to school next year, as i really miss university and hope to god i'll be ready for that when the time comes. there's been more, but that's not really stuff i feel at liberty to talk about so publicly. it's been an intense year though.
