Knock that s~~~ off. YOU ARE NOT A LOSER!!! You a valued member. I am glad you are here.
Love is just alimony waiting to happen. Visit mgtow.com.
I have been taking care of my body the last few months, got a lot of weight on me after I got a Blue Pill depression about me not being able to get a ‘stable’ relationship while I could get lots of sex easily.
The red pill showed me what the problem really was and it wasn’t I. Went from a BMI 32 to 26 and I even put on some muscle. I am more fit now that I was before and frankly I feel like a man for the first time in my life.
I am trying to finish up my first light novel as well, hopefully I will get some allowance through it while I try to get something more tangible out there.
Nonono, I meant people I know in real life might see me as one

Well if they see you that way you’re better off not knowing them. And you are in the real life.
Women are so bad, if they changed the law so I kept the house, I still wouldn't marry one. I'd rather be homeless.
I find myself with lots of habits now that could be termed self-improvement but are just part of my life at this point after going MGTOW. I lift weights, joint mobility stuff daily and practice jiu-jitsu. I find myself a little in a rut at work. I just don’t have the motivation to learn new things there that I used to have (I’m 45). Not sure if that’s temporary or I need to look for a new field to spark that enthusiasm again.
On a related note, I paid off my house last week. So now I’m debt free at least. I think knowing I was doing that is part of my motivation problem at work.
Planted my garden too this weekend which I think is self improvement since I can eat out of it all summer at least.
Dieting and Exercising to get myself in the best of shape, learning and adding to my skills as a video editor and videographer. Everything I buy is good quality and furthers my work.
are you a chia pet in man drag Personally I’m working towards better health. I underwent weight loss surgery recently and bounced back from severe morbid obesity that would have left me bed bound had I carried on not caring. Eating right, spending less, and therefore enabling me to squirrel away my money.
Dropped video games completely mostly due to time constraints and focusing on my drumming. And of course, dropping people out of my life and going ghost as much as I can.
@russky, strength in contentment brother. I don’t have a whole lot going for me either but I have a peace of mind.
Weight Lifting and studies into programing.
A MGTOW is a man who is not a woman's bitch!
Anonymous0GREAT POST JAN. Your best yet. +10
I can be reached at randy@mgtow.emailLately I have felt like – what do I do now? The rage at relationships, hypergamy, and duplicity has burned it self out and now it is time to move on but I won’t leave the forums because I can help younger guys thru their crises. All you guys that are feeling the same way; know that somewhere there is a guy that you have helped even if it was just a “Welcome to MGTOW”
What am I doing to improve myself?
2016 – 17 Take a course in motorcycle/ATV repair. Registered for Sept. Not to get a job but for my own self interest. Maybe do a little “backyard mechanics”.
Learn to play the blues harmonica at the lake this summer. Scotch, campfires, and Blues. Peace and harmony for me.Finally, I wasn’t going to let this out of the bag just yet but I feel there are some guys that are flagging and maybe looking for something to look forward to.
This: In July of 2017, a long time friend and I planning a motorcycle ride down US Route 66 for our 65 birthdays. Yes the Route 66 show of the 50’s and 60’s. We would leave from Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada – thru Minneapolis to Chicago (the official starting point of Route 66) thru St. Louis, Oklahoma City, Sante Fe, the Grand Canyon and all the way to the Santa Monica Pier in L.A. From there it is North along the Pacific Coast Highway thru Oregon and Washington, crossing the Canadian border to Vancouver Island and then West across the Rockies to Winnipeg and home. I expect the entire trip will take a few months. My feeling is that I will only turn 65 once and if I don’t do it then I will always regret it as the road not taken.
This is the official invite to any MGHOW to join me for any part or all of the trip. Even just a meet up for beers as I pass thru your town would be fun.
Google Route 66 and check it out. I can be contacted for discussion at the above MGTOW address.PS. We are riding as the “Sons of Arthritis” motorcycle club. Google that too.
Well, as of tomorrow morning im going in to tell my boss I am taking a better job for more money. a man has to have goals. and I wont let mine slip away so they can make a buck off me.
as for long term personal goals. finish travelling Australia, the top half anyways. then motor on to Canada to South America. a big trip. this job is what I need to save up for it.
otherwise I have cleaned up my eating habits to slim up. sitting at 80kgs @ 5’8″ with broad shoulders. so almost at my goal.
as for the short term, well its moto season here and the enduro season is about to start so if I can place in the top 25 I will be happy. practising hard almost every weekend. (races can have 100-150 competitors sometimes)
Good to see a heap of men out there working hard to make strides toward there idea of a good life. keep it up gentlemen.
Yes this is a great post! Are you from Winnipeg Randy? I am! Just yesterday I landed a job in northern Manitoba at a giant hydro dam project and have yet to give my current employer my notice. I think I will take a week off before starting the new job as it will be a 3 week in and 1 week out schedule. Finish up one of my project cars this summer then drive it and enjoy it. Get my roof done on my house and garage. Focusing on saving money and paying off debt. Spend time with friends and family.
A lot of great stuff in here. good to see guys improving for themselves and doing their own s~~~!
M52, I’ve never been to the US but I’ve always wanted to travel Route 66 and i’m sure I will someday. you’ll have to share your trip once you’ve done it.
personally I’ve been doing a lot of things, mainly small to improve my happiness
Try to keep a decent sleeping pattern – avoiding late nights and long lie’s
much reduced alcohol and fizzy drink consumption
no porn
no video games
more effort and time into climbing, also trying to be more social in this which will open up opportunities in the future
More travelling and being more diverse when i do so
looking to buy and have a flatmate to save money on rent
doing a lot of reflective writing
reading a lot
watching little to no TV or movies
learning to listen to people properly rather than just waiting to tell them them things
dressing better
keeping up fitnessall in all i can feel myself getting less emotional about things and more happy, motivated and content
Anonymous42unfortunately, not a whole lot, besides spending hours consuming red pills and posting to this board.
the reality is that I became extremely lazy and unmotivated. I am also a master procrastinator. With a slight drinking problem.
I am happy for all you guys, but I can’t show for much myself.
I want to change and I will, but this wallowing in my basement by a computer screen has been going on for years now. I cannot say I’m depressed. I’m just enjoying simple comforts and staying out of trouble.
There is a certain self-hate I have developed though, which is not very constructive, since it doesn’t push me onto bigger and better things in life.
I have sudden bursts of enthusiasm, but it’s very short lived.
I am only 36 but I live a life of a very old man pretty much.
Many probably see me as a loser, but I know that it’s not the case, and I don’t care what they think.
Something died inside of me since my short-lived marriage affair, and I don’t seem to find strength or reason to bounce back to life.
I just have to reinvent my motivational system from scratch and it’s taking a while.
Maybe years on adderall and xanax took its toll on my brain harder than it did on others, but it’s just a hypothesis. But I’ve decided I am never going back on this s~~~ ever again just to boost my productivity and energy levels. There must be some other way
Thanks for listening, I had to vent this outRusky, we’ve all had our down time! You’re just riddled with the bullets of divorce, like the road suddenly ended as your hopes and dreams are slashed to ribbons! That s~~~ takes TIME to get over! I’s a testament to how deep your personality goes! The pool of your character runs deep, it takes longer for the muddy waters of marriage and divorce to settle, I’m the same way! That’s why I went MGHOW! I got sick and tired of spending my life waiting for muddy waters to settle! Now it’s crystal clear to the bottom and I’m keeping it that way!
1. Trying to get fitter – target is a sub 4 hour marathon in late April followed by 3 marathons in 3 days in September (I’m 52).
2. Voluntary work – I’m volunteering at an animal rescue centre, I volunteer at the local Parkrun and I’m training to be a listening volunteer for a mental health charity.
3. More mountain walking.
4. More writing.From two summers ago, I started to cut back on added sugars by a lot and I hope that I will lose over 45 pounds of fat in the second year anniversary of my eating more healthy by this June. I have also walked every chance I got and that alone helped me a lot. I also use to do weights for my arms and shoulders. After a few months of accomplishing my arm and shoulder goals with my dumbbells I sort of stopped, but at least I burned a few calories while reaching and maintaining my muscle goals. Took me about 5-6 months to reach my muscle goals too, but I guess I would of reached my muscle goals faster if I would of eaten more protein.
I am also on and off learning another language using a computer learning program that has helped me relearn the basics very well in the language I chose to learn that can help me have a broader range of jobs I can apply for. At this point, I only wish to learn the basics of this language very well, so my goal is to learn the basics very thoroughly. Once I learn the basics very well, when I do work, I can always fall back on the basics while trying to learn new words on the job.
I am also in a middle of doing a food handler’s certificate to help me do the job I wish to do with handling food. I have already did a certificate of accomplishment to learn the theory, and now I am just waiting for the exam to be scheduled. It also has been over a year now that I have been learning more efficient and faster ways to food prep with a chef’s knife so that I can work in an entry level job as a prep cook or a cook’s helper one day. Hopefully, if I have a food handler’s certificate, I would be taken more seriously, since I do not have too much experience in working with food in general besides cleaning.
Once I get some of my other goals out of the way and have more free time and money, I am planning on self teaching myself some computer programming(I went in school for computers in the past) so that maybe I can make some apps on the android since I am already pretty familiar with java as it is, and java is used as the computer language for the android devices as a whole. Maybe, just for a personal challenge, I would make a video poker game with a twist, since making something like that can be a fun and good challenge at the same time.
