This sort of technique worked really well for me in my first semester of uni. I was stuck in a funk and tried many things (even including stuff like cold showers). What really worked was just changing my thinking. I consciously decided that I'd stop feeling sorry for myself and that I wouldn't blame my surroundings or others for bad things. It worked wonders at the time.

Deciding is one thing, remembering another. How would you catch yourself in those moments?
Honestly I don't remember. I suppose I'd catch myself some of the times, but not the others and this just averaged out to me catching myself most of the times in the end.
...and nary a mention of Extreme [1] or The Brothers Johnson [2]. [1] https://youtube.com/watch?v=IqP76XWHQI0 [2] https://youtube.com/watch?v=huzYji2OAD4
Author here, can't believe I missed these. Strawberry Letter 23 is one of my favorite songs. Post has been updated to include these gems. Thank you! [1] https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rquygdjf0d8

What an album Pornograffitti!

I spent an entire summer blaring it from my clapped-out Grand Cherokee in high school. It's an underrated gem sold short by the massive success of "More Than Words". My friends and I saw them a year ago in LA and they were fantastic (as were Living Colour who opened for them). Hearing Nuno play the opening to "Women In Love" as a Van Halen tribute was icing on the cake and probably the closest we'll ever come to hear…
How was Living Colour? That’s one I have on the bucket list.

Sadly I’ve never seen them live. Nuno is really one of the great ones, when you’re that good it’s easy to go overboard and lose track of what the song needs. How was Living Colour? That’s one I have on the bucket list.
Amazing. The entire band was in top form and Corey sounds as amazing as he did 30 years ago. Getting to hear all of the great deep cuts from "Vivid" and "Time's Up" was a real treat. They also did a little old school hip-hop medley based around Doug's time as a session musician for Grandmaster Flash et al. I didn't even realize that they were opening until the day of so it was a very welcome surprise.
