The Wednesday Wellness threads are meant to encourage users to ask for and provide advice and motivation to improve their lives. It isn't intended as a 'containment thread' and any content which could go here could instead be posted in its own thread. You could post:
-
Requests for advice and / or encouragement. On basically any topic and for any scale of problem.
-
Updates to let us know how you are doing. This provides valuable feedback on past advice / encouragement and will hopefully make people feel a little more motivated to follow through. If you want to be reminded to post your update, see the post titled 'update reminders', below.
-
Advice. This can be in response to a request for advice or just something that you think could be generally useful for many people here.
-
Encouragement. Probably best directed at specific users, but if you feel like just encouraging people in general I don't think anyone is going to object. I don't think I really need to say this, but just to be clear; encouragement should have a generally positive tone and not shame people (if people feel that shame might be an effective tool for motivating people, please discuss this so we can form a group consensus on how to use it rather than just trying it).
Jump in the discussion.
No email address required.
Notes -
Anyone hate their signature, or is it just me?
Well, hate is a strong word, but I see people penning all kinds of fancy scrawls, while mine is just initials in cursive with a small flourish. Even the other variant on some legal documents is an initial and surname in the same.
This can be convenient. God knows most professions don't need to sign their names nearly as often as medics do.
I suppose I could change it, if I really wanted to. I'm just put off by the mild logistical headaches I might face if someone asks me why existing samples on various documents don't match what I put elsewhere.
My signature is merely my name (first, abbreviated middle, last) in ordinary cursive. I personally like how the capital letters look, but it does perhaps take a few seconds longer to write than would be ideal.
