What have you done positive to yourself since your break up!

i figure its christmas time around and i want to put this thread into something feeling good about yourself. my x broke up with me because i wasn't motivated enough for her, not going to school, lazy pretty much the whole nine yards now this is what i did to better myself, and hopefully you can add what you did also to better yourself
1. I had 2 jobs when i was with her i picked up a 3rd job now im working 60+hours a week. (she said i was lazy)
2. i enrolled back to school (devry) bioengineering i have 2 years left and im taking 20+ units per semester (devry+community college). i recently just finished my first semester and i ACED out. will be goin to law school or med school when its all said and done.
3. im running a half a marathon this january in LA, im back in shape before i met her and physically i feel good. also im back at the gym and my boxing class
4. will be moving on my OWN apartment this january before the school year begins.
5. i will sign up to be a donor for bone marrow after my marathon, i always want to give back and this is me giving back
6. financially happy! MONEY MOTIVATED as of right now

post yours

That's awesome, rice! Go you!

After my divorce, I went out and found the kind of man I wanted- motivated, sweet and interested in having a fun life with me.

Yeah, that's really impressive. Hopefully you figure out what you want to do (law and med school are very different directions)!!!

It's kind of funny how a break up will give you an almost whole new perspective on life. I was pretty much just going with the flow and not doing much until the break up, and after not really knowing what to do with my life I sat down and thought about what made me happy and now I'm on my way going to pharmacy school.

Which yeah, makes me a big nerd, and another four years of school and finally getting a real job at 28-29 sounds kind of crazy, but for the first time in my life I have a plan and all the motivation in the world to reach that goal. With or without her.
