Having goals and plans, developing a positive daily routine - those are the most important things to achieve anything.
I'm glad to hear you've started your journey ready to make a difference.
Good luck with falling in love with the city. Mainly it's your perception of it. If you're determined enough, you'll find reasons to love the city. Otherwise, you'll just find excuses.
Thank you for sharing your journey and it's nice to meet you!
I'm BOI, by the way.
