First OYS post since I got my ass roasted in AskMRP. For all the guys who responded to my post, I really appreciate your help and advice.

Why I'm Here:

  1. I'm unhappy with my life and the direction that it's taken.
  2. I want to get back to the awesome dude I was back when I graduated college. I owned my shit and did cool things and generally charted my own course. Captain of my fate, master of my destiny type of shit.
  3. I NEED to kill my ego and stop being defensive when I get criticized and throwing pity-parties when life kicks me in the nuts.
  4. My marriage is failing/has failed and it's because I let it happen.

    Reading: Finishing up WISNIFG and am in the middle of Bushido: Soul of Japan. WISNIFG really opened my eyes. I went hard Rambo establishing boundaries and communicating what I wanted to my wife after I read NMMG and it was disastrous. I now know about fogging, negative inquiry, etc. which would have been useful and probably wouldn't have driven her away.

    Mental Health: I think I've been battling the black dog of depression for a while now due to my general unhappiness with my life. My ego has gotten in the way trying to rationalize or mask it (hamster gonna hamster) and I need to sort shit out in my brain, learn to forgive myself and others, stop worrying about shit I can't control, and stop over-analyzing things. To that end, I've started meditating again; twice per day, when I wake up and before bed. I've also scheduled a check-up with my doctor so I can get a referral to see a therapist.

    Fitness: I will be restarting the 5x5 program on Monday. I've been quarter-assing it for the last few months and have seen no results because of it. I've also cut out crap from my diet and have reduced the calories I eat per day. My goal is to be down to 225 by the time my PRT comes up at the end of October; about 20 pounds in two months.

    Hobbies:

  5. I finally have my dues and whatnot sorted out with my Mother Lodge back home and will be joining the Lodge her at my duty station. They work closely with the Host Nation Lodges so it will be interesting to see The Craft through the eyes of another culture.
  6. I've also taken up scuba diving and am scheduling a dive with my buddies next weekend.
  7. Going to start learning how to play my guitar again.

    Wife/Relationship:

  8. I have no idea what's going on here. She says she wants a divorce and there's no way we're ever getting back together, but she won't sign the separation papers or custody documents and refuses to negotiate. I gave her everything she asked for (trying keep everything amicable so we can minimize damage to our daughter) but still no dice. The single time we met when I was home on leave, she cried when talking about separating. I guess she's going to do what she's going to do and I need to accept it and worry about myself.
  9. I need to worry about this stuff less. It's been hard, but meditation is helping.
  10. I'm doing my best to stay connected to my daughter. I've managed daily Skype calls so far and am in the process of recording bedtime stories and songs so she can hear my voice whenever she wants.

    Challenges:How do I build Abundance Mentality/destroy oneitis for my wife, while in monk mode?
