Default What concrete things have happened in your life after reading at stevepavlinaCOM?

Would just be interesting to hear.
In order to be able to scan all the post I urge you to post a list:

* the time when you started reading at pavlina's site
- thing 1 it has done for you
- thing 2...
etc.

For example:

I've read the articles here for two years
- increased my income by X %
- learned how to play the guitar
...

I've been reading Steve's site for 3-6 months now.

Over that time, I've:
- started rising regularly at 6AM rather than 7:30ish (and the 'ish' is important )
- lost 17kg (~37lbs) of weight
- joined and now regularly participate in Toastmasters
- been exercising regularly
- eaten considerably healthier (primarily vegetarian but I eat meat occasionally)
- generally felt more energetic and positive
- increased my income by ~$75 per week

I especially credit the 30-day trial for helping me to achieve the health changes, and Toastmasters has been great for building confidence.

* 9 months-ish.

- Got a new job with about 50% more income. (Increased courage)
- Gave three large audience speeches. (200 to 300 people) I've never given a speech/presentation to more than a dozen people at a time before.
- Started my blog, which is up to a whopping $10 in adsense revenue, despite no optimization. That's about $1 in profit.
- Improved my relationship with my wife dramatically... One a scale of one to ten, where one is a completely dysfunctional family, and ten is similar to Leave it to Beaver, before, we were at a 5, now, at 7/8.
- Became a moderator here.
