It's quite easy to become a loser living anywhere in the world.
It's the ones that feel sorry for themselves, the lazy, the guy who just couldn't be bothered.
It's difficult to stay away from the bars, you got to keep yourself busy, to easy just to walk in the bar and drink beer.
Start first thing in the morning, get out of bed, have a coffee, some cereal and head down to the gym, there's a few hours of the day, ready for lunch, you'll find the days are so much more enjoyable starting with a workout.
Stay positive and motivated, you'll get there.
I'm one of lucky ones, I have a big family here in Pattaya that keep me busy.
