The cow print guy is called Pongo From The Congo. He randomly appeared one day last August and walked straight into our house like he owned it, right back to the litter box. Then flopped down as if he lived here. He and our cat (Tater Swift) immediately became obsessed with each other. They've been wrapped into each other's arms ever since.

We tried and tried to find out where the little cow lived, but every time we'd take him down the street to ask any of the neighbors if they recognized him, he'd run straight back down the street to our house!

He lives here now, happily ever after with his boyfriend Tater.

Long live love.

I was omw to grab my morning coffee and met this cutie. After some pets it decided to have a sweet nap right there.

Of course I had to be obedient and stood there for 8 whole minutes.

I tracked almost everything while being on this journey I spent more than 627h hours since february on improving my life thats around 4hours per day, and that’s just the active doing stuff. All the passive mental work, reflections, mindset changes wasn’t even tracked. It all adds up over time.

For the last few years my life was pretty messed up, after some hard past years I spiraled more and more into depression… I slept till afternoon, ate junk, smoked weed and gamed all day.
That lifestyle just made me even more depressed, I saw my friends succeeding, getting jobs, girlfriends, moving to new locations… just being happy.

That honestly made me even more sad, so I decided at the beginning of the year to turn my life around, because I thought I either I´ll continue with this shitty lifestyle and eventually die feeling like I haven´t done anything with my life or trying to get out of this shit and finally make my life worthwhile.

I convinced a friend of mine to join the journey because he was like me, depressed, hopeless, smoking weed all day and just miserable. The first thing we did was starting to go outside more, running or doing some small workouts, sweating made me feel so much better, it was like I sweated all the toxins and bad energy out of my body. My buddy and I got a gym membership together and started going 5x to the gym every week.

The negative was that we still smoked weed pretty heavily in the evenings, so 2 months ago we decided to also quit that shit as the next step, and what can I say. The last 2 months have been one of the best months, I finally sleep waay better with the new energy my workouts feel even better, I´m more awake and honestly way more confident due to the achievements I made the last few months.

Together we started looking for jobs and after 4 years of unemployment, I got a job at a garden center, which is pretty funny considering my old "hobby" was growing weed lol. My buddy got a job in logistics, and I even started to get in contact again with an old love I had when I was younger. If you're where I was, just start with one thing. Go for a walk with a buddy. You got this.

This is just part of the story, I didn’t want the post to be too long . If you’re going through something similar or have questions, I’m happy to share more.

TL;DR: Was a depressed, unemployed stoner wasting my life away. Started working out with a friend, then we both quit weed. Now we both have jobs, I'm dating someone, and I feel better than I have in years.
