Stage 1: Resisting the Urge (Days 0-90)
The first battle is against the urgesโthe chains that have kept me bound for too long. This is the stage where I break free, where I build the foundation for a new life. The enemy is strong, but my will is stronger.
My Mission
To overcome urges and develop the discipline to say โnoโ without hesitation. This is where I reclaim control over my mind, body, and spirit.
The Battle Plan for Stage 1
Cold Showers โ Shock the system, build mental resilience, and remind myself that I am in control.
Daily Exercise โ Physical strength fuels mental strength. Every rep is a step toward self-mastery.
Immediate Action Against Urges โ When the temptation comes, I will not entertain it. I will move, breathe, prayโanything but give in.
No Triggers, No Excuses โ I will cut out anything that fuels the addiction: social media, isolation, or anything that leads to relapse.
Scripture & Prayer โ God is my strength. Every day, I will arm myself with His word and seek His guidance.
Journaling Progress โ I will track my battles and victories, learning from every experience.
Surviving the Crucible
The first 30 days will be the hardestโthe withdrawal, the cravings, the doubt. But I will endure.
By 60 days, my mind will begin to clear, my energy will rise, and my confidence will grow.
At 90 days, I will emerge victorious, ready to face the next challenge.
The foundation will be set. The chains will be broken. The war will continue.
But I will never be the same again.
Stage 1: Resisting the Urge (Days 0-90) -
Completed
The first war has been foughtโand I stand victorious. For 90 days, I battled my urges, broke the chains, and reclaimed control. It was not easy. There were moments of struggle, but I refused to fall.
Now, Stage 1 is complete.
I have built the foundation. The cravings no longer hold power over me. The addiction is losing its grip. But this journey does not end here.
Now, a new battle beginsโthe battle for emotional mastery. Stage 2 awaits.
If you wish to use these strategies, you are welcome to them. God bless!
I move forward, stronger than ever. Still I rise.
My Foundational Verses:
Proverbs 3:5-7 (KJV)
โTrust in the LORD with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding.
In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths.
Be not wise in thine own eyes: fear the LORD, and depart from evil.โ
