I’ve not Gambanned but I’ve not played for a while after literally wanting to punch my screen, punching the desk, bruising my hand and wondering, “Why the fuck am I hurting myself over a Fat Fucking Reactoonz head?”.
I’ve also given up playing Fifa because of the dreaded Fifa rage. That game is on par with a bad slots run for me. I could feel a controller about to go through the TV screen lol.
I’ve got Netflix, Prime and a host of unwatched films. I’ve made a list of ones I want to watch and am constantly adding/ticking them off as I go along.
I’ve started reading so much more. Rather than slot at 9pm onwards, I’ll go to bed and read a book for 90 minutes – 2 hours. So many good books out there if you like good stories. I’ve set myself a goal of finishing all my unread books in 2019. That’s about 20 I think. Halfway through the first one already! Find something you like be it stories or autobiographies. Auto’s are good because you learn that everyone makes mistakes and you can still come out of it.
I play football on Wednesday nights which is good fun. I’ve got a goal of losing a stone by my Birthday in April. The beer gut is slowly coming out and needs to be put away again. Cold running incoming.
So in essence, get some goals of things you want to do or accomplish! Can be as simple as getting a colouring book and doodling away in front of the TV.
