2025 Last man standing challenge [Entries Closed]

Thank you very much. Very good advice. I will hold myself to that high standard but when the time comes to choose between exhaustion which leads to relapse and rest, I shall choose a day of rest - of not focusing hard on schoolwork, exercise etc. Choose progress, as you say, not the chance of perfection. I will commit. I will commit fully. I have no other choice bro :fist_right:

Thank you so much again man. If I donโ€™t hear from you again, may you have an absolutely brilliant day :).

Day 1/365. I felt tired today in the afternoon but I followed @Covertxomicโ€™s generous advice and rested, so that I would have more energy to fight. Once rested I revised again. I wish that I worked out after I had rested a little less, in hindsight; that, in my experience, causes the addiction hurt. Like landing a punch in a fight.

Tomorrow will be good. Iโ€™ll start off the day with a workout before breakfast, and finish off my practice paper. By the end of the day I will hope to have written 3-4 pages on my coursework.

Letโ€™s have a brilliant weekend bros :blush:

Day 87
87/365 check-in

Life feels like a big question mark for me, right now. I feel a bit lost on the path. Maybe iโ€™m having what they call a life crisis. Iโ€™ll keep distancing myself away from PMO-related/lustful thinking (lustful thinking has been my go-to when i need escape even during my streak; i will need to desist from it to feel like I have a good and secure recovery from addiction). I think down the line, when i allow my โ€œhigher selfโ€ to speak, my path and purpose will be revealed. I believe i am called to do something to make the world a better place. I need to do some service to my community to bring healing to peopleโ€™s lives. I must develop a strong and secure love of myself before I can show love and care to another.

Day 87/365 :white_check_mark:

165 Day Streak going strong and up.

Got a lot of things going for me, which is nice. Still I feel many areas I want to improve.
From Monday on, I will further work on my inner alchemy through optimizing my circadian rhythm and managing my media consumption. I will free more time offline to study and build value.

Keep wandering unbothered :fist:

Peace :v:

I will check in properly tomorrow. Today was, as hoped, brilliant. Inspired and glad, reading your messages. Itโ€™s an excellent calling that you have @ncubeanelem . Go for it man :slight_smile: well done that you have got to this point. I must be off to bed so that I have time to study tomorrow morning.

Smash tomorrow bros :fist_right:.

Day 1/365 checkin, for yesterday.

Yesterday was brilliant. I studied persistently, had a brilliant workout in the sunshine, went out with a friend (choosing to run there and back, which was great), finished my studies and finished off the workout that was cut short by the visit. Slept well afterwards. Itโ€™s up to me to make today good also.

From 71 days to three relapses in a single week.

Sad, in every way. A world that isnโ€™t just black and white, but without color in any way. Thatโ€™s how it feels.

I have noticed that I am more liable to relapse on days where I havenโ€™t worked out. Only a small thing that I have picked up on.

I have all the willpower I need.
