Check in Day 4. All good to continue fighting! Looking forward to cross over to the other side of victory!
day 37 checking in It was a calm day since it is sunday just workout a bit helped my brother studied and didn't go out since the weather was really bad but all is good I'll keep going
Day 22 Today I am grateful for my fellow Spartans that share their lessons so I can learn and be successful. last night I was at a family event where I was asked to be the speaker. There were many beautiful women who spent the evening looking my way. Getting involved with any of them would have brought shame to my family had anyone found out. A girl in a blue dress was giving me the hungry eyes and it was difficult not to approach her. On my way home I felt the frustration and thought about how normally I would just go and fantasize about her and fap. But I resisted and I am glad I did. I am stronger for it! Thank you Spartans for your support!!
Check in day 16, I didn't understand the check-in part of the challenge? Do I have to check in every day? Feeling strong and motivated to reset my brain, still aiming for the 100 days, because I know I need it.
Take a note everytime that happens. So next time if you feel like fapping read it. It should stop you.
Yes you have too, the idea behind is that you can see other ppl progress to motivate yourself and stay committed to this challenge. Also it makes it easier to see various posts on this site be it success stories and all.
Thanx mate, this is really interesting. So in fact, retain semen and stop watching porn and masturbating, gives you sexually and brainpower, yo look more handsome, you feel less fear and more courage, gives you a conscious wider, basically turns you into a genius, into a better person. It helps you to set your past free, to make better choices, to think, feel and build your own future, not your boss or family's one. Moreover, if you go with your path whit healthy food, spiritual reads, and meditation, changes appear faster in your life. Absolutely, stress and pain disappear, existentially and physically. My conclusion is, as in fact that helps you to make better choices, NoFap means the first step towards the freedom, I know get over your own desires is hard enough, so get out of this world we entered (PMO) is too difficult, but is just the first step. What's next? then we should fight for our financial freedom, relation freedom (when you are dissatisfied). In summary, there are more than this little war, we are against a lot of things, but we need energy, we need knowledge, we need to be so wise in every fight. Keep going, this shit is ours. Check-in day 17
Increased Social Presence Today I was alone in my house for a few hours. I noticed this urge to do something, to feel something, and this faint suggestion to fap kept circling. So I thought about that. And I was like, hmm, if I am not going to fap, what is it I want to do? I started thinking about that. What else do I want? I started thinking about meeting people. Social interaction. Women. And I was like well, I’ll have to go outside, go somewhere, find some people.... or I could just fap. And I was like, wow, that would be a whole lot easier! No trouble! And then I was like wow, fapping is a thief! It steals energy from actually doing something and makes me weak and pathetic. Later I was in a coffee shop and I had this heightened awareness of my state of being. I had a heightened awareness of how my mental and emotional and physical energy shifted when I observed different people. And how the impression I had of people influenced the shifting. I chose to focus on being at ease and just enjoying the moment. Being happy. Not trying to force people to notice me or like me. Not hiding. Just sort of putting myself out there. The first staff member spoke to me and I was super mellow and it kind of made him mellow out too. I noticed a couple of college girls and instead of trying to capture their attention I just made eye contact and smiled. Held their eyes for a few moments. Nice and easy. They were super busy so it wasn’t like they were going to drop everything and grab a coffee with me anyways. One of the girls asked me how my day was and as I was talking to her I thought to myself wow, she has such pretty eyes and they brighten when she smiles. I didn’t try to hold her in conversation and I didn’t shy away. And slowly it felt like she was being drawn into me. She started asking me more questions about my day and what my plans were. She kept coming back to me to talk and smile some more in between tasks. And then I left the cafe. Walking out the door I had this feeling of warmth and easiness. I didn’t feel lacking or like I missed something. I just felt super calm and chill. It’s like, after being the person speaking in front of a room full of people last night I suddenly had this ability to just be in the moment and not be running all this garbage in my head. I was vulnerable and exposed last night, and, the truth is, it took a lot of strength and confidence to do that. To be so exposed and vulnerable. And stay easy and mellow. I handled my shit. And today in the cafe it was easy to do it again and it felt great. And I’m sitting here feeling like I can’t wait for tomorrow so I can go out into the world and just experience interactions with other people. Explore them. Instead of hiding in my basement. I haven’t felt depression since starting Nofap. It feels like a lifetime ago. I’ve changed in such dramatic ways in such a short period. I’m a new man. A better man. A Spartan man!!! See you all soon. To Freedom and Glory!!!
I think women talk to us more now because we don’t have to fight the urge as much to not stare at their cleavage. I noticed that on the train the other day. I wasn’t instantly drawn to stare at a women sexually and so when I did politely smile it wasn’t immediately following an inappropriate glance. Whether they notice this consciously or subconsciously I don’t know. But I think that plays a role in positive interactions.
