Have you inspired anyone into making a positive change?

What should my NY resolution be?

I plan to save some $$ to buy a condo, but that is no fun and hardly counts.

I am changing up my exercise methods but I don't want to lose weight or anything. Maybe 3-4 pounds but that is just a matter of me not being a lazy eater.

One thing I thought I might do is stat writing short stories. Or I should say write more and compile into a cohesive collection.

Perhaps I will swipe a resolution from someone else. Who here is inspirational? (Not me.)

Have you inspired anyone into making a positive change?

I talked a friend into getting a divorce.

I try to all the time but they don't listen to me.

I quit smoking on a dime, and three of my friends followed suit.

I wanted to be able to do a pull-up by the end of 2014, I didn't reach my goal but my BFF did.

You 35 and can't do a pull up?

I have a genius for motivating people to make positive changes but I don't recommend that you test me cuz youll get what you want and wont like it at all.

The first one is the hardest! I'm trying to do the 50 pullup challenge (and failing miserably) but on a positive note, my military press went up 40 freaking pounds last year!

Here is the absolute best training routine for doing your first pullup!

I've inspired people to be worse but never better. Not on purpose, I have like a Cassandra problem.

 

[CandiCame]

I'm confused by the pull-up thing. What do you mean the first one is the hardest? Anybody can do one. Shit doesn't get hard until you get tired. Unless you mean it's difficult to find motivation and yeah that's what you meant nevermind I'm a dumbass.

I have zero doubts about the veracity of this statement.

Pull ups are easy. Every man should be able to lift their own body weight. Start with push ups build up strength and pull ups will be easy.

Scooby. He does excellent videos with great advice. I recall that a year ago he was run off Internet by pc losers who got a hard on for reasons I never understood(fat shaming or some such bullshit?) , doxxed him and harassed his family.

Its Gospel and I always gave patients warning they would get their results and then curse me forever. Its like selling your soul to the Republicans, I mean Satan.

Aren't you a skinny, gender confused vegan or something? Not much body weight for you to lift.

My father told me if you carry it you should be able to lift it. I seen a 300 pound man walk on his hands. My mans was 300 and something and was doing backflips. Skinny or fat doesn't matters when it comes to working out.

"if you carry it, you should be able to lift it " is a good phrase. Maybe your pops wasn't talking about physical strength.

Ha, no. To every single thing on that.

 

[CandiCame]

The thing is, I want to be skinny, but not enough to exercise like I need to. Like I used to.

On the original question: yes, countless times, but only as a function of my job, as a teacher. If I couldn't inspire students to improve themselves, work harder, aim higher, etc, I shouldn't do the job. I can't think of a stranger I've inspired, though - maybe some close friends who have some respect for me (quitting smoking, changing jobs, etc).
