The Wednesday Wellness threads are meant to encourage users to ask for and provide advice and motivation to improve their lives. It isn't intended as a 'containment thread' and any content which could go here could instead be posted in its own thread. You could post:
-
Requests for advice and / or encouragement. On basically any topic and for any scale of problem.
-
Updates to let us know how you are doing. This provides valuable feedback on past advice / encouragement and will hopefully make people feel a little more motivated to follow through. If you want to be reminded to post your update, see the post titled 'update reminders', below.
-
Advice. This can be in response to a request for advice or just something that you think could be generally useful for many people here.
-
Encouragement. Probably best directed at specific users, but if you feel like just encouraging people in general I don't think anyone is going to object. I don't think I really need to say this, but just to be clear; encouragement should have a generally positive tone and not shame people (if people feel that shame might be an effective tool for motivating people, please discuss this so we can form a group consensus on how to use it rather than just trying it).
Jump in the discussion.

That was really helpful, and I do appreciate you taking the time to coach us newbs! Now, I need to figure out the relevant pathways for immigration, because if there's one thing there's a glut of, it's Indian SWEs of dubious quality trying to make it to the States. (I'm no SWE, but I certainly am dubious for the near future heh)
I hope you do this on a recurring basis, I'll hop in to present my progress in the hopes that I can get a grip on how likely I am to progress on the short runway of 1-2 years I can really give myself.
