Day 15

My journey is going extremely well so far. This week I concentrated 100% on working and improving myself, and I didn’t have any urges. No need to masturbate, or to release sexual energy. This is the power of focusing on the activities that matter.
Levels of confidence, energy and happiness are tremendously high. I am patiently waiting to grow and to improve. :upside_down_face:
In the last 2 days I have felt very overwhelmed because of the amount of workload coming from school, but it is definitely a positive thing:

Creating time pressure forces you to concentrate on the activities that matter the most, limiting the ones which bring limited results. Basically, this is the 80/20 principle.

In other words: I am forcing myself to defeat perfectionism in homework. School subjects are not the priority. Developing skills is what matters.
Let’s keep in mind what matters.
We’ll grow together friends :muscle:

Keep going man. This time you are in the righr track and Iam 100% sure you’ll make it.
Keep giving your 100% every single day because

the decision that you make right now, this moment will decide how you’ll be after 5 years or when you are 20

Iam telling you this from experience. I consider you as my younger brother man and you are 15. When I was 15 I was addicted to this shit as well and I was making excuses and took this ADDICTION to this age. See still I haven’t reached nowhere in life.
Iam falling back. This is my last chance to face reality.
Understand the reality and make drastic change now itself.

Each decision you take this moment counts!

So do whatever it takes! Iam telling you don’t make the mistake I made. We all want you to become your best version as early as possible man.

You have awakened my fire. Your words are extremely powerful, @Tagore. I will keep them in mind.
Our future self is watching, and we cannot lie to ourselves. We must do whatever it takes to make our goals reality.
Thank you brother. Your support is very pretious. :facepunch:

Day 22

I’ve noticed that this week my levels of focus and energy have been growing steadily; I had to face frequent urges, but I could easily remind myself that relapsing is definitely not worth it. I will complete the challenge together with my brother @kakka!

I also noticed that girls feel more attracted to me. But I won’t allow myself to waste time in pleasure, nor to get a girlfriend. My goals have got the priority.

I cannot let myself relax before I am able to serve the world in the most effective way possible.

I’ve elaborated a blueprint to follow in the shortest term:

  1. Finishing the speed reading course I’m following - deadline: end of October
  2. Strengthening even more my spiritual life - deadline: 15th of November
  3. Starting hitting the gym, to create an even more shredded physique - deadline: 15th of November
    Then I will start learning coding: a valuable skill in today’s world.

Time to work. There are goals which wait to be completed. You can't allow yourself to take it easy. Go and get shit done.

Thanks to @Tagore for having taught me this important lesson.
Stay strong :facepunch:

Confession

I feel the need to share this confession with you brothers. A few hours ago I almost relapsed. We can consider it edging. I have been weak. The stress was a lot, so I said to myself: “Why not go and watch some P? Just a peek”.
Worst decision ever. No way. I should have snapped back to reality immediately. Instead, I’ve been able to escape from the trap only 10 minutes later, when I was about to give in. When I was about to relapse with a video.
Why haven’t I done the 20 pushups set this time? Why didn’t I meditate immediately? These techniques always work well.
Nonetheless, as soon as I snapped back to reality I went for a run. A long run to distract myself, or better to make myself focus on my biggest goals: while I was running I continuously visualized them, to remind myself one thing:

there is no place for porn in a life dedicated to greatness.

Let’s consider porn carefully: it consists in watching two strangers who are having sex while other people are filming them. It is fake. There is no kissing, nor cuddling, simply two body parts touching one another. One extremity of the body inside of another, and nothing else. Isn’t it disgusting to watch this shit?

Never again. It toom huge willpower to control myslef. But as soon as I started running, I felt incredibly grateful towards God. I want to express my gratitude to you dear companions as well. You give me the strength necessary to keep working on myself, to embrace the pain which comes with this journey.

Now I must be aware of the chaser effect. I’ll rise after this mistake. I won’t make it again.

Together we'll become unstoppable.

Brother I think If You Edged Offcourse It will end up in relapse either the day or on the coming days…Iam not demotivating you I have experienced these type of extreme situations 100% of the I relapsed …because the brain will not give us freedom after edging it will keep say relapse relaspe…and finally we relapse

I said to so many brothers that edging is suicidal and also mentally unhealthy for us…If you edging with p*** then it is double dangerous a sea of dopamine will be released which will ruin your mental stability…

Lsd+heroin = porn + edging

I ALWAYS USED THIS EQUATION …I THINK EVERYONE SHOULD UNDERSTAND HOW IT IS DANGEROUS

Porn Can Kill Nofap Can Heal

I understand how dangerous that action was… but I think I can survive the chaser effect. I experimented it myself many times, but this was the first time I had the strength to resist to the temptation. It was the first time I resisted ejaculation. A step forward in controlling myself.

Edging obviously didn’t do me any good, but immediately after I converted all the tension accumulated into energy to complete a long run, which helped me come back to the "usual"energy level.
Now 2 days have passed, and I haven’t felt any urge yet. Probably the long run solved the problem. I hope the situation won’t get worse in the following days. Maybe I will survive.

However, I understand the destructive effects of edging now. A huge mistake to avoid in the future.

Day 28

This week has been very stressful and full of things to do: I’ve been studying and working on my goals all the time. No time to think about porn (except for the day in which I edged, damn it :persevere:), only to think about my future.
I feel full of hope and confidence. Even though currently the levels of stress are pretty high, and the amount of tasks I have to complete makes me sacrifice some sleep, I am gradually improving.
There is only one week left to complete my speed reading course, then I will have more time every day (and I will get back to my normal seep schedule). This course is tremendously helpful also with my studies: I am becoming a more efficient learner.
The fact that I’m finally beating porn (this is my highest streak so far) is creating patience and confidence: I can solve any major problem in life, if I’m willing to put in consistent effort.

We just need to tackle one thing at a time. One problem at a time. One skill at a time. One area of life at a time. And be persistent. Gradually we will achieve greatness.

Stay strong guys :facepunch:
