Hi everyone! Saw the announcement and immediately ran here.

My question is this: do any of you have any goals that you've been actively working on?

For me, I've been trying to work on my GED that I abandoned a decade ago. Signed up for courses and everything.

Another thing I am trying to learn is more about Dialectical Behaviour Therapy and how that can help me learn how to cope with stress.

Finally, I have major ADHD so I've been trying to do note-taking in my day to day life. Started journaling, taking notes on Youtube videos I watch that I think are important for me to remember, habit tracking, so forth.

How about you? What are you trying to do to better yourself?

Hey I see this thread is more geared towards personal betterment which is of course important and a beautiful thing on it's own but I don't want it to distract from the intention of this community which is community betterment. Would you all be happy with a monthly personal development thread that I can sticky to the top? I can see this is something a lot of you are looking for and I know loving yourself makes it easier to better serve your community so it's not completely off topic but wasn't exactly the intention. I can sticky this one for now.

Oh sure!! Sorry bout that, I read in the description that self help and betterment also counted for the community so I was a little excited haha;;

I'll try to figure out how to sticky and make it a monthly thread.
