Modernmedico to Monk : A Journey

[bdcca5f9012bcc17ec5f373c442a0bce] Relapsed and back Day 4 I don’t like to start from zero. I relapsed few days after my last entry. Then it was down the hell lane. Relapsed… again & again… till I could catch my breath. I’ll tell you what happened in between We all have one problem. But the ROOT cause is different. Till last time I was trying very hard not to fap or watch ■■■■ that I was focusing very much attention on them including this app. It was the first time, I was new and excited.…

I understand. I struggle with this too. Check my above post. May be it can help. I wrote this yesterday after I relapsed many times.

Hope you find your way and your strength.

@TheRewireUser @modernmedico Yeah sometimes I feel that way too. But no one said noFap is easy, only worth it. You can do this, brothers.
Keep trying. I have so many 2-6 day streaks after which I have relapsed; trust me those are the hardest days. It’s just a matter of perseverance.

Well, today is my 3rd day I believe. I entered here on 27th. Lemme give you guys an update.

I failed miserably. 2/10. No exercise. Mediated. But could hardly study.

There are reasons to it. Firstly, my little cheat with my smart phone prolonged for hours, draining my energy and I had no more courage to sit through my schedule. So mistake number one was to assume that I can take a healthy break using my smart phone. Secondly, yesterday I was in really good mood. Could have been because I have been on no fap for 5 days and the weather was amazing too. So I did not feel like taking any stress. So that made me not worry about my dead line. So even a good mood could spoil a days routine. Obviously, nothing is lost. These are age old habits and I will need time to grow. Push a little further everyday.

So, let’s hope the targets for next 3 days are achieved. I will return better. Cheers to all.

[Nuwanda]

Well, bottom line update on sunday.

1/10.

Nothing achieved. Too much screen time and sleeping. Will try to get better. Give me courage guys.

Past week results

@EvilMorty

No fap goal → As I have relapsed day before yesterday, chaser effect will be stronger, so conquer it and overcome it

Conquered successfully

@EvilMorty

Mental goal → Meditate atleast once per day

Done, daily twice and whenever I feel I need to empty my thoughts

@EvilMorty

Physically goal → Go to gym 5 days a week

Went to gym 4 days in the last week, missed a day due to night fall

@EvilMorty

Work life goal → Learn something new in my domain, whatever it may be.

I wish you most success for you exam @Mahesh27_03
@EvilMorty Bro you really improved your life! I look up to your discipline and I will work on mine.

Let’s keep improving, brothers

[TheRewireUser]

0/10 , relapsed
I’m doing the same thing again and again.
I am good for nothing

[debellator]

@TheRewireUser brother don’t have that mentality. The very fact that you are in this challenge means that you have foresight to improve yourself.

We are all a work in progress man
Let’s do our best.

[strongwillpower]

I like this entire concept… it makes us observe us and take decision in the right way… this is also going to carve a good person in us…

Im interested in joining…
When does the week start?? It it same for all… or is it a personal choice??

Can anyone help me get adjusted to this??

[EvilMorty]

@BN03 @valiant_warrior I would suggest you guys to join this group.

[TheRewireUser]

Thanks brother, I will try harder , if I just have control on my impulse. I can definitely do 10 times better and I know it.

[debellator]

Yes brother sure
Since it’s only day 2 of the week(Tuesday), you can still set this week’s goals @strongwillpower
I have DMed the info

[Nuwanda]

So, let us see. Last update was on sunday. This is 3 days post that. I had finished a certain amount of my target. One of the days was ruined coz I got into subconscious introspection. Wasnt worth it. O am quite used to that tho. But now I understand that it ain’t gonna help much to live your life on a constant revind. Everyday is a new day and I mean it. I might have not achieved my targets yesterday, I am nit sure if I will achieve them tomorrow but I am all pumped up to do today’s bit. My today is indepent of my yesterday and tomorrow.

So guys bottom line is, declutter your mind of any baggage from yesterday’s failure… Carry the work forward if needed and bam! DO IT TODAY! No reason why your today can’t be the best one ever. Cheers

[strongwillpower]

Thanks for all the help man !!

[debellator]

@Nuwanda I 100% agree with you!
Yesterday is past, you can’t change it.
Tomorrow is not guaranteed, you can’t alter it.
Today is a present to you, use it.

Reflection is important, but it is useless unless you act on what you have reflected.

@strongwillpower Glad to see you in the challenge brother!
