    Some of my PMO side effect,
    • Procrastination;
    • Sleep late, tiered in the morning;
    • Foggy mind;
    • Depression, loneliness;
    • Long to do list, no good progress;
    • Sensitivity.
    Some of Skills that an entrepreneur requires,
    • Building relationships;
    • Planning;
    • Acting fast and accurate, decisions too;
    • Excellent communication skils (leadership);
    • Mind should work fast in calculating numbers, not foggy;
    • Speaking should be flowing smoothly and logically!
    Also, after a PMO night! Every thing goes wrong in the day after, even some times disasters happen! What is the correlation!

    Any one experiancing or like to share a story in this subject.
    Do you think a PMO addict can be a successful entrepreneur? Any example?
    Or "before and after" nofap as small business owner?

    To respond to your title, with extreme difficult and hard effort.

    In my own experience, stopping PM automatically improved my sales / persuasion because the natural confidence projects clearly. Your clients just hear it and trust that you're the expert to deal with.

    Don't fuck with your livelihood. PMO WILL AFFECT YOUR BUSINESS.

    To add to that, you need a sharp wit. When you're on PMO, you will have difficulty giving sharp and quick answers. The more confident you are, the less hesitation you have. Think of it like a fist fight: if you have fear or lack confidence, you can't throw your shot even if you see the right opening. Stopping PMO has that effect. (I'm saying this from experience because I've been demolishing and out-timing sparring partners. Same thing has happened in business.)

    Great, yes I need to read this type of personal experience which adds value and a reason why we should stop PMOing.
    While reading your reply I remembered that I was trying for a period of time to get new customer or new project, and things was complicating. Around 4 months a go, coincidentally I stoped PMOing for 2 weeks then another 2 weeks, means in 30 days only PMo for 1 time. During that period I got 2 great customers. Nothing after that until today, maybe because after that i was regularly PMOing.

    Lust clouds the intellect and makes one vulnerable to traps by sexy but scheming women. Don't be a fool... a fool and his money are soon parted.

    :cool: Do you remember Corleone family in Godfather movie?
    Fredo and Sonny were sex addicts and both were losers.
    Michael (Al Pacino) was self controlling, his attitude toward women was different.

    It sounds not scientific :)!

    I don't believe in the impossible. It can happen. But people are different, some people are just thinking about pmo 247 and not function well at work. At that point I believe professional help is necessary. But if someone is coping after some time off from pmo your brain actually change.

  11. Some words of wisdom from Grant Cardone, millionaire entrepreneur:
    "If you got drug problems, alcohol problems, you're gonna have to get rid of them, okay, you're gonna have to confront the beast."

  14. So I choosed "yes", here's why:

    We should stop thinking that when you're an PMO addict you stop functioning as a human being. Yes, PMO is bad but it's not the reason you suck as an entrepeneur. Stop finding excuses and actually work on yourself, I know you want it!

    I'm not trying to be rude here but don't let this PMO addiction stop you from pursuing your dreams :) Have a nice day!

    Yes, it's unlikely, but entrepreneurship is hard and everyone has his or her personal demons. Many top entertainers are addicted to hard drugs, they can still perform like nobody else.

    Overcoming addiction is probably the same struggle and hard work as being an entrepreneur. Someone who can daily overcome addiction and stay sober can also build something amazing in his life that would bring him nice wealth. But going back to an addiction can bring him down big time. So it is a constant fight. It is all in that DISCIPLINE mindset !!

    Over a year since my last post, I've tripled my income. Another multiplier to come soon.

    You wants to grow the balls you want to be made of twisted steel and panther piss? To grow a business? Don't drain 'em. Simple.

    Be healthy, see and feel your future self as your current self, regain self esteem, lift weights, partake in competitive activities. Find a real woman (strong one that tests you). Start feeling like twisted steel and panther piss. Act like a man. Don't watch p and don't m.
