Two things i'll do in 2024. I'll avoid victim mode and I'll be calm

Things are never perfect, but they are pretty good.

I get frustrated with friends and my wife at times, even so i know its much better to stay calm and do my own thing when others disappoint me.

So to make this more actionable.. I will post mostly positive and constructive content even when i face challenges. This will allow me to avoid victim mode

As far as being calm, i get upset sometimes as it's easy to do, i quickly try to reframe. I am practicing being calmer even as we speak.

I gave up heavy caffeine in the form of coffee and carbonated sodas to close out 2023. This will help me be calmer. I've already been doing good on exercise which curbs my anxiety.

Sounds like a good plan, bro. More power to you.

I think this belongs in Anything Else, or maybe Wealth and Success.

But yes, it's been a wild decade. We all lost our cool at some points throughout. I say that like 2020-2023 didn't happen because they feel more like transition years or years lost to war than normal life.
