major fail lately but getting back on track now with accountability software and friend at church. Navigating a technical maze trying to get everything locked down and accountable and deal with the real issues driving this behaviour. Thanks for support all good to share with you. Going back to Strive programme as well. Arggh why is this so damn tough and frustrating that’s life I guess. God bless Rbtr81 (real name withheld!)
@anon67854825 @Forodwaith @Gk-00 @BruceLee Pray you’re all doing well
@Rebooter81 Prayed for you this evening brother. You can surely overcome this with His Help. I would suggest you read through @Special_Bird’s success story; the insights he’s shared can really help make the journey easier.

A day in and struggling. A real close call this morning. I came here and an pressing on. Thanks for the prayers and them coming as will I.

Thank you all brothers, for keeping on tagging me, and for all the prayers and support! It really warms my heart, I want to do better than this! 
Sorry for being away for these two weeks, I really did not have the energy to get back, I lived these days away from nofap, from this forum, and basically giving in to PMO once, twice, or three times a day. Don’t know why I did this, after breaking my streak two weeks ago I lost the will to fight again.
I want to get back into it, because my future is too important to be wasted like this! I will try to stay closer to God in the following days, I need lots of prayer, I’m not strong enough to make it alone! 
Sunday
Prayer 
Mass this morning.
I lite candles and held you in my thoughts during prayer @Gk-00 @Forodwaith @Rohitash @Rebooter81 @Forerunner myself, friend and the deceased
Media 
Can do better
Exercise
I’ll do some now
Really glad you’re back @Gk-00
Always here - Rain or shine 
Social
Said “yes” to lunch with my friend, even though I wanted to doss about.
And then took him to a Russian choral concert.
For me;
Decided to go on holiday alone at some point.
Also there’s a few ladies that I’d like to get to know - I met one by chance and stayed in contact.
So I plan to visit London at some point, with the excuse to go Xmas shopping and fancy frag smelling 
Side note;
I smelt some Tom Ford’s and Creed’s the other week - I wasn’t impressed all that much.
More money doesn’t guarantee better frags.
Versace - The Dreamer £25
It’s a real unique masterpiece from the 90s.
Last gift from Gianni.
Expensive/difficult to get back-in-the-day.
Now; Really inexpensive,
Hidden from the hyped, pushed, safe, modern, generic frags.
Good frags are like alchemy,
And put me in a great mood.
Thanks be to God for giving us creativity, to delight in His!

I still struggled today, but got out of that mindset.
Exercise
Just now.
Prayer
No church this evening, but practicing confidence in holding back from responding - but Listening.
I’ve got lots of things I could say right now, but I’m letting that boat float out to sea.
All my hope and trust is in God
Thanks be to God for today
Monday
@anon67854825 @Forerunner @Forodwaith
Recovering from these last two weeks, feeling better today. I installed another app blocker on my phone that seems more reliable and with less loopholes than my last one, will keep it for a while and see how it goes.
Today it was a productive day, woke up a bit late but went to university and worked a lot, feeling satisfied with what I’ve done for once! 
Next areas to work on:
Also I want to be more social, more outgoing, I stopped seeking for a romantic relationship because PMO stopped all my efforts again, but I will not give up!
But Lord, one thing at a time, I put my future into Your hands
@Gk-00 @Forodwaith @anon67854825 We’re making progress 
@BruceLee New week bro! Polish that diamond to 80%+
Monday
Every day in every way I’m getting better and better by GOD’s Grace

NoPMO video? Yes
Three days in. Every morning feels like a close call but I’m saved when I call out to the Father.
Glad to be on this journey still and not alone.
All good, but used my phone this morning 
I don’t feel in a bad place, but realise there was lack of vision this morning.
Usually my mornings consist of routine and tasks - today is not one of those days.
I had some interesting dreams, nothing unnerving, but intriguing - An early night, watched some emotionally engrossing ‘slice-of-life’ anime for the first time in ages and a pleasant sleep.
But, again, the fall is not something that weighs me down, but something to learn from.
Routines + distractions = Great
But what when they aren’t there???
This is something only I can answer and fully internalise
On the plus side;
I got straight on with admin, emails
(something in the past I would have put off)
House is dead and quiet, I got on with cleaning up the kitchen too.
Of course I want to abstain from pmo, but I also don’t want to be absorbed by replacing it with its polar opposite.
Routines + distractions = Great
But what when they aren’t there???
Why?
Exercise,
Practice,
Learn,
Socialise,
Pray.
For me, where I am in my journey is;
NoPMO is in dichotomy of PMO.
NoPMO tries to replace PMO (which it can’t without other activities)
NoPMO is a response to PMO,
making NoPMO a slave to PMO.
Without PMO, NoPMO wouldn’t exist.
NoPMO owns its existence to PMO.
God alone is my journey, my guide, who alone is who I reach for.
I won’t reach Day 7 on Sunday, but Thank you Lord, for helping me to ask some meaningful questions, and find some immediate answers
Tuesday
Getting tired. Might need to set an In Bed By 10PM challenge.

Tuesday
@Gk-00 @Forodwaith @Forerunner @Rebooter81 @BruceLee
Exercise/Social - Tai Chi
Prayer - none
Media - clumsy morning with no plans
Interestingly, at Tai Chi, my teacher said to the class “if you’ve got nothing to do, do some Chi Gung (the warm-up). You’ll end up finding something else to do (lol)” 
Also, at the end of the class, I mentioned how there never seems to be enough hours in the day.
He responded with “when we have little time, we are usually working to someone else’s time schedule”
Bam! He ‘hit-the-nail-on-the-head’
Thanks be to God!.
Where we practise Tai Chi, there is usually an art exhibition. Here’s some pics
Tuesday
@Forodwaith @anon67854825 @Forerunner
All good. Spent my day at university, things are picking up speed for my thesis and I think I’m starting to see the end of the tunnel finally!
Did not pray much, aside from the Rosary this morning. No exercise either, I came back home for dinner and felt tired, so I skipped.
But I’m living life again and not escaping and wasting time, this is such a gift!
Amen That’s great to hear @Gk-00
I’m impressed, I struggle to prayer the rosary at times. I’m glad your University work is ‘paying-off’
I will pray for success
