Welcome to Remedial Class
The purpose of remedial education is is to remedy someone who's reached a point of unpreparedness regardless of why, hence the name of this site.
Unprepared for life was exactly what I was right after graduating school. A period of time followed where I failed to realize my potential in a lot of things in life. Looking at my peers, I couldn't help but feel left behind when it came to things like physical fitness, appearance, dating, career, and finances.
Perspectives on self improvement will be offered based on my experiences. Although not a website about religion, the perspectives offered here are influenced by my Christian faith.
One of the reasons I felt compelled to start this site was because in my own quest to fix my problems, I found a real lack of online resources for people of faith who are looking for help in secular areas. Too many sites were just plain inappropriate for someone like me... most dating sites gave advice that contradicted my moral principles... lots of healthy eating and exercise sites came across as cults and/or seemed excessively obsessed with cavemen and evolutionary theory.
I found that if you stay at some of those sites for too long, they will take you down a rabbit hole. Even if the advice is fine, the communities behind it obsess over it and make you think that one particular topic is the be all end all of life. This will hijack your priorities and lead you away from God.

No one can serve two masters, for either he will hate the one and love the other, or he will hold to the one and despise the other. You cannot serve God and mammon.
-Matthew 6:24
My hope is that this site serves as an alternative.
Thank you and God bless.
