[Method] Using Excel as a bridge between me and my instant gratification monkey, Medical student trying to stop failing

Here is a screenshot so you know what I'm talking about

I'm a 23 y.o medical student, I failed 2 years and now I'm in my 4th year. Things are getting really serious and two years from now I'll be a resident (the French equivalent). The problem is I'm terrible at self control, I can't focus properly, finding the motivation is really hard. For those of you that are familiar with Tim Urban's description of procrastination : the instant gratification monkey in my brain just won't let me study.

But using Excel I found a way to track my progress while feeding my dopamine hungry brain. Over a four week period I have training exams 4 days a week and on the fifth week I have real exams, so I listed all the chapters I have to study with the corresponding day and the corresponding number of pages I have to memorize, I then created a small calendar where I write the number of pages I learn each day.

I calculated that if I learn an average of 18 pages everyday I will know every single chapter before the final exam. That's my main goal, even if I'm behind for the trainings it's ok as long as I maintain my average above 18. I then created a graph showing how many pages I have to learn for each training day (blue), how many pages I learn each day (orange), a line showing where the 18 pages limit is (green line), and finally the evolution of my average number of pages (the red line, which I have to keep above the green). Of course as days go by the average gets steadier and harder to change.

I also created a circle showing the percentage of completion and another small graph showing how far behind the training sessions I am. And when looking at the screenshot keep in mind that I'm halfway through so after the 18th of February (today) everything goes down.

All of this can seem pointless,

Banning straws or shaming people using straws just shows how stupid you are and that you care more about self gratification than the environment.

Banning straws is quite literally the most ineffective thing to do if you want to help minimize the plastic waste dumped in the ocean. Straws make up 0.025% of plastic in the ocean. Yโ€™all just saw a single video of a turtle with a straw in its nose and lost yโ€™all shit.

Ghost gear, which is abandoned fishing waste like nets etc., makes up 40% of plastic in the ocean. But they made you believe your ass can actually make a difference and now youโ€™re acting all high and mighty to feel better about yourself.

Tips on delayed gratification and patience.

Hey all.

Little bit about me. I'm a 32 yo married male to a wonderful woman. I have about 100k in debt mostly student loans after I've paid about 12k off this year (I went to the hospital for like a week and had some other issues, so most of that was medical debt I paid).

What have yall found works for you in delaying off for things you want in favor of things you need? Affirmations, meditation exercises? Im open to anything. Paying off some felt good but I wanna keep it going!

Projected debt free date is Oct 2026 btw.

[NeedAdvice] How to cut off instant gratification/phone use?

I've been implementing things like no internet or games after 10 pm, cold showers, no sugar and nofap. Most of the slips happen on nofap and no sugar habits. I want to take it further and lessen my phone usage so I have more time to build my other habits. The problem is after I give up phone for a day I find myself binge watching things after. How do I do this so I'm able to cut off my phone? Any habits that help with the anxiety on the rebound?

$VXRT Trade Recap. How you can use both long and short perspectives to validate a trade theory to gain an edge. Understanding both sides of the coin.

Took a trade in the afternoon during Power Hour when I was searching for closing momentum going into the weekend. I took a reasonable sized position on $VXRT, I don't really know what Vaxart does, some pharmaceutical / biomedical company who's got something to do with oral vaccines. Why don't I know more? Simply because it does not matter, VXRT had some good volume and momentum with a smaller capitalization being around 1.3 Billion.

As you can see by the 1 min above, at 3:00 price rallied to a daily high, subsequently also a weekly high, monthly too if I can remember the daily chart correctly. Price rips to $10.90-$11.00 and just starts going sideways after being rejected near $11.00. Now when I was looking at this I was urging to buy a pullback into a breakout after the consolidation of 11.00 but as you can see by the below chart referenced, the 5 min and the 1 min charts were extremely over-extended as price is vastly distant from the intraday VWAP (blue line) so I sat on my hands.

https://preview.redd.it/2jwosu4sddw61.png?width=674&format=png&auto=webp&s=73a089b8cac6151e83e5a5a7e0c804f261bcd93a

So now my next thought process of a trade hypothesis was that if it's been rejected that many times at $11.00 on increasing volume but still cannot break, then the most probable scenario would be a breakdown and retirement back to an average of some sort. Now i'm hoping for a sell-off to VWAP to catch a bounce.

Now the reason for this breakdown was from an observation on the ask side of the DOM, there was about 300,000 shares continuously popping up on the ask at $11.00 which kept on soaking any of the bids being placed to pop the breakout. So theres a huge supply zone of liquidity sitting at $11.00 so you definitely don't want to buying at the level.

As you can see price then tanked down to the averages, i'm currently looking for a $10.25 buy for a potential bounce with a stop just below VWAP if it fails to bounce, except it never hit VWAP on the 5 or 1 minute chart. SCRAP. So onto the next trade hypothesis.

After the breakdown of the rejection at $11.00, you have the 15 minute chart consolidating a bit around $10.50, got a nice red to green bounce but then got rejected again at 10.70 for th

Tinder has officially given an instant gratification complex to sex. People now equate the task of getting laid in a real life scenario to an exchange of five sentences and move on if it doesn't work. It used to take hours (days, sometimes weeks) of conversation and tequila for everyone involved.

Iโ€™m still a huge gamer but Iโ€™m playing it without a lot of interest nowadays. Anyways if you guys are trying to lose interest in gaming try no fap and youโ€™ll have less interest in quick dopamine hit activities

Why do we use two different models (MO and VB theory) for quantum chemistry???

TL; DR: Why do we have molecular orbital theory and valence bond theory??

First of all I have clear concepts about quantum mechanics but not about quantum chemistry. Becuase I'm just learning it's possible I just misunderstood something, but I'm quite confussed.

I've been reading an organic chemistry book and it introduced those bot theories, molecular orbital theory and valence bond theory; nevertheless, it doesn't justify anything mathematically, due it isn't focused to mathemicians nor physicists.

Then, isn't it weird how we have two (very) different theories to describe the same objects?? Besides, how can both be accepted and be useful at the same time? Can VB theory describe and predict hybridisation and justify chemical geometry, but MO theory can't? Can MO theory predict and justiy pericyclic reactions, but VB theory can't?

How can this be possible? Can't they be unified? Is the unification of both theories an open problem on science? Am I misunderstanding something?? I'm confussd and a little help to clarify this questions will be welcomed :)

I'll be very pleased if you could recommend some quantum chemistry books, even if they are not for newbies, due the fact that I have math/physics background.

Thanks for your help :)
