With the low low down payment of lifelong burnout!

The only person i know who still watches it has horrifically right wing socioeconomics.
Play is a good one for aerobics. Going for a run or bike? Try to find new routes or go places you haven't before. Maybe run an errand. Maybe try to study wildlife or plants around while running one to another.
For strength training IDK. just pop in some absurd music and know that later it will feel good either just post exercise or weeks later when the exercise itself feels nice. It's also going to be nice when you go to lift a thing or hike and recognize you're actually stronger. Always a rewarding feeling!
In either case, it's important to reflect positively on your progress. "Hell yeah i can do this thing now thanks to my effort!“ and not negatively e.g. "my goals are so far away I'm so weak".
I wasn't saying it was the first. I was just saying that THIS back story, Andor + Rogue One, makes it good in a way that the OT stands worse off without. Andor especially with just how god damn well researched, written, cast, and acted it is. The rebellion is given body, history, and character instead of just existing because it has to because the empire exists. The Jedi's story is improved because of the story of the non-superpowered people on which their quest is given merit and a foundation.
I'm not a big enough SW fan in general to spend my precious little reading time on SW comics and books. I'm sure there's lots of merit in them, but not for me when there's so much else to read in far more interesting universes.
His blaster wound not healing was a metaphor of him being independent from the movement and not being able to move on from his trauma. He's fighting accepting his losses when he's fighting getting force healing. The act of getting it is him accepting he can't do everything independently, and that he is part of the movement, no longer and individual, and moving on from his losses. Not necessarily that he WILL die, but that it's irrelevant because he has decided his path. That's what allows his trauma to start healing.
This concept could be handled in countless other ways. My main gripe is that the show and rogue one focused on how the rebellion wasn't built on zealotry or a single hero but the sacrifice and grind and passion of a great many people working together.
But it's Star Wars, they gotta jam some lucas spam in there somewhere. I'm glad it was limited to this.
The only scenes i felt were shoehorned in or removed me from the plot were the ones with the force healer. They weren't needed at all. Worse, they possibly remove some value from Cass' character by implying he's on a divine "messenger" quest instead of acting on his own agency.
Rest of the series was perfect.
Also check out the ICCH Reviews. Commentary from war and uprising journalists.
Straight up makes the OT into a different, more meaningful story. The rebellion actually has meaning, purpose, construction, and politic.
I guess it is roughly one Netherlands wide, huh...
The Golden Shower of wealth if you will.
I was experiencing moderate executive dysfunction from extreme anxiety last year. I started drawing but maybe did a small doodle at a time(<15min). I just kept the sketchbook and supplies in the one special place i kept clear of my chaotic clutter(even if that just meant pushing stuff around the desk). I think i picked it up once a week on average. A year on and I've done about a hundred sketches. I guess i decided that out of everything in life, that's what i valued putting miserable little bits of energy into.
Don't know if that's possible for you but every time you pick up that hobby you get a little better at it and that skill is never lost. So you know... Progress is progress ig.
And they WOULD break, eventually, if they weren't engineered to a statistically determined inspection interval and replaced/repaired at the determined overhaul time.
