    Thanks for the reply :) I've tried intermittent fasting before and may use it again. I guess I'm going for small changes to start with so I don't burn out. 3 meals feels right and means I can eat with the family. Dessert is a habit I'm in that I enjoy and if I can fit it in and make it...

    Thanks for the reply :) I find it hard to cut down on groceries cause only a portion of it is mine and the rest is wife and kids. I've cut back for myself by trying to eat fairly cheap meals and buy cheaper cuts of meat for family dinners. Biggest part I'd say is the snacks for the kids which...

    I'm starting this thread as a bit of accountability as I try to improve my health. I've decided to do this as I posted about feeling stuck and depressed and several people responded that one way to improve energy is to improve health and I think that's a large part of it for me. (Here's that...

    Thanks for the reply :) I do track my expenses and know where the money goes I'm just not sure where to cut back :/ Roughly 25% of my take home pay goes to debts. This will be reducing to around 20% in the next 2 months and then should be all paid back by April next year so that will help a...

    You're right, I'm certainly not the first person to be working 9-5, have a family and also have dreams of a richer life. Lot's of people make sacrifices, work on their business after everyone else is asleep or before everyone else wakes up. I've got to be willing to do the same. And I don't...

    Hi fellow Aussie :) I do struggle finding the idea. I've recently gotten rid of social media from my phone, Instagram was my poison of choice :/ I do spend every spare minute I have listening to podcasts so maybe I should cut back on that? I've been doing it for years and it's always...

    We don't live in an expensive city but we do rent and it's not cheap :/ A few more details: - We've got twin 3 year old boys so there's some extra expenses there for nappies and day care - We're paying down some debts so there's around $20-25K per year going to that which will finish up in...

    Thanks for the reply mate, you make a bunch of really good points. Some actions I'm going to implement from your advice: - I do need to improve my diet and sleep so I'll have more energy - I will use some time when I'm working from home to work on a business. At this stage the only concrete...

    Hi All, This is probably more of a rant, not sure if there's an actual question but more I'm after general advice. I'm also aware this will be a lot of whinging but it might help me work through my thoughts. Basically I'm feeling depressed and stuck as the thread title. I earn a decent income...

    The Costanza Principle: The secret to your best life?

    Agree with this 100%! Having a place where you feel safe and enjoy spending time is hugely important, like you said, if you like where you are then there's no need to run away. I'm watching some of your old YouTube videos (highly recommend BTW) and the shots with your pool and mountain view in...

    Rhetological Fallacies - Ethical in copywriting?

    Thanks for the reply :) I wasn't meaning 'manipulate' in any bad sense and I know that these kind of techniques are used all the time, often times unknowingly, in order for people to get the things they want. But I'm sure you'd agree that it is possible to 'over use' these techniques or to use...

    Rhetological Fallacies - Ethical in copywriting?

    Thanks for the reply MJ. What about the fallacy labelled as "Appeal to Money" or "Appeal to Novelty"? These are a common technique mentioned here on the forum. The argument goes something like, "I'm pricing my product above competitors to make the brand seem more appealing" or "You...
