Also someone give me the tag that comes after Orc tomorrow I still don't see one on my profile (I don't know how it works either)
You have to add the tag yourself! If you go to your profile and select ‘Signature’ you can add your tag on there, congratulations on becoming an Uruk-Hai!
Monday check in. Hobbiton awaits! Today I have prayed and meditated, taken a cold shower and tackled some work-related duties. I would plan on the gym, but the weather is preventing it. I'll try to do some pushups later. I had some cravings this weekend that I was able to resist, thank God. What helped that time was stopping, breathing slowly, and remembering that porn really isn't something pleasurable, but rather a self-inflicted wound. I want to be done with that mental and physical self-harm. I'm slow and foggy today. I forgive myself for this and know that it will get better. Today I will power few a couple other tasks, make a schedule for tomorrow, and maybe relax tonight with a book or something.
Day 25 So grateful for another straightforward day! I’m still keeping myself occupied and avoiding sources of temptation, I know that the coming days could be very difficult and I don’t want to lose my focus! I’ve made it to Amon Sûl! Not long until I reach the House of Elrond and surpass my longest-ever streak!
Day 0. I relapsed today. I was without defenses. The causes were two: - Too much use of PC, specially watching films with a nude or sex scene. So I had that in my memory, appearing constantly. - Stress at work: we had an argument and I had to stay awake at night, finishing my part. This proyect had ended making me angry. Back to the relapse every month. But I know that I must change my strategy, being more radical avoiding P or related content -some Instagram accounts- or the way you look others. St. John of the Cross, pray for us.
Day 77!!!! Close day as I have been joined the Gamestop stocks meme which required me to risk some money for the meme... which activated my dopamine and risk taking sensors. I guess that is why I was thinking of maybe "a little won't hurt." Got out and just observed and meditated on how these situations affect my mind... I wish it would've been an easier way and stay mega hyped.., But for now it's still in the works. If fortune favors me, maybe I'll learn more tomorrow
I know that pain very well, however, I have yet to experience the pain of a marathon. I have only ran a half-marathon. I've yet to really set the goal of running a marathon but I may in the future (right now my goal is to run 11.5 miles with 1,900 ft of elevation gain by mid-summer [it is the distance to the peak of a nearby mountain]). Thanks for sharing your story @Slider8, its really cool hearing about your experience
Day 11, Productive and keeping a level head. Ran 5 miles this afternoon and keeping true to my 4:21 AM wakeups (every day except Sunday) where I start my day off with a run or homework. Stay Strong Fellowship!
Day 5 complete, feeling good. I was stressed today by a lot of work and duties pulling me multiple directions, but I made certain to set aside an hour of my evening for relaxing with a fun hobby, and that really helped! @UpInSmokeTour I think that's a very good, healthy plan. What will you read first? @Slider8 Dude, you ran a whole marathon? That's awesome! I'd love to get there someday myself. Not particularly related to our NoFap goals, but I wanted to share this beautiful LOTR song with you all!
Day 49. I am looking forward to celebrating making it to 50 days. I am proud of myself for going the distance and committing to this 90-day reboot. I need to stay diligent and see it through to completion.
