    I almost entirely agree, but there are two things that I think are important to consider;
    1. Great people like Stephen Hawking probably, as you say, didn't watch telly. But if someone doesn't want to be the next great xyz, and would prefer to just be outstanding in their field, certain elements of watchin tv may be useful. For example, watching the news each night can help with business decisions without taking up too much time. For another example, many films are undoubtedly a part of history and culture, so may be seen in a similar way to appreciating art. But I agree that most tv is crap and not worth watching if you want to progress in life.

    2. Everyone needs some down-time. Personally I enjoy yoga, origami and cooking as ways of relaxing, but equally I can see that many people may find tv a great way to wind down. Too much tv is definitely a bad thing, but 20 minutes to watch a quiz show or something to help someone relax is hardly likely to destroy someone's chances of becoming the person they want to be!

    But overall yeah I agree that tv should be avoided for many of the reasons that you stated!

  3. Checking in, Dark Angels! I faced some temptations, but overcame them. :D
     
  4. With a heavy heart I must report that I have fallen on the battlefield, in spite of being so close to the goal. Sorry, Black Templars.

    I'm trying to stay positive about it, though. I didn't look at any porn and I didn't get caught up in fantasizing. It was simply me not being able to control my physical self.

    Checking in day 24 for the Blood Angels, very tired this morning and very sore for some reason, been feeling really lonely because I can't really see people without breaking rules, and my housemates have been absent for the last few days so I feel totally alone...

    Sorry to hear that brother, but you had a fantastic streak and you should be proud of it! I know that you can have an even better streak in March, stay strong brother!
     
  6. Checking in for the Black Templars. Surprised how quick this month has gone!!
     
  7. Checking In for Blood Angels.

    Could not sleep well last night due to headache. And the time I was awake I had constant urges to fantasize. I have trained myself not to let my hand go down there. It is tough fighting your thoughts and many people say this is not wise. I don't know how am I just supposed to watch some thoughts coming to my mind and not paying attention to them without fighting them.
    Only a few more days left, Hoping to end February with a strong streak.

    Checking in as a fallen Templar. Two days under my belt and finally starting to find some motivation again. After so many half-hearted attempts, it feels good just to be mentally focussed again. Deus Vult battle brothers, looking forward to fighting alongside you all again in March!
     
  10. Checking in.

    I haven't been on here for a few days except to quickly move from 3 day to 7 day challenge. I'm doing well with NF at the moment though. I went camping on the weekend with a couple of friends, and have been flat out with study and life stuff.

    I have read everyone's posts on here. Seems like there's been a lot going on!

    Our beloved deathwatch @RK@24, @happysloth and @vicicool will soon be getting a promotion. Keep going, keep the faith, the strategies, the discipline and getting the rest when you need it.
    Here is some etch primer for your powersuits, when it's ready, it'll help the new insignia stick and maintain its shine for the many battles ahead...

    @Rokudaime You're owning it at 84 days.
    Btw, how are you feeling after your cold and fever?

    @Sebbrix Wow. I was going to ask how the party went, but umm...that's quite the description. I hope physio can give you some helpful advice regarding your foot and ankle. It's encouraging to hear how your running progress is going.

    @T0mCrus4der cool progress bar, where do you make that?

    @happysloth I love reading your positive updates. It seems you've set your mindset to match your name...

  11. Day 1 complete. Usually I'm okay about not bingeing but this time the urges were stronger. It's been a stressful week with tests and extracurriculars. It's good to learn this about myself, because in the past I have thought of myself as handling stress pretty well without the need to return to PMO.
     
  12. You've got this, brother :)
    What do you reward yourself with or de-stress with? (if you don't mind me asking)

  13. Definitely not the only single guy. It sucks sometimes. I'm okay with it at the moment, but yeah I think it goes in cycles from "this is great" to "I really want that special someone in my life..."

    Oh right! #DidNotCompute :cool:

    As others have said, it'd be great to have you with us next month! I've made a note to let you know when the new challenge is up.

  14. Thnx bro, I am feeling a lot better today and looks like I will completely recover in one or two more days.
    Definitely not satisfied with 84 days, the 90days will be a one big achievement but I want to see how far I can go in this streak.

    Yeah at home I may feel fine with me being single. But the outside world is full of triggers. Every girl seems beautiful and seeing every beautiful girl makes me question myself why I don't have such a person in my life. When that wave of loneliness strikes, that can be very dangerous for a person following NoFap. That is why I went for complete dopamine fasting so that I can avoid every such thought.

    Blood Angel, checking in for day 25, just 4 days left and then to the Deathwatch! Feeling really good about my 46 day streak as well, this is comfortably the best streak I've had, I'm going to extend it all the way to 90 days and see how far I can take it.
    (Gonna pre-emptively check in for the purge which I guess is going to start later today)

  16. Max streak @Rokudaime! You got dis bro.

    Yeah too right - I hadn't pinpointed this myself yet, but it's spot on - seeing the beautiful women around makes me wonder too. Without seeing them it doesn't seem like such a big deal. Oh yes you eliminated sugar, alcohol, social media etc for a time hey?

    You'll be in DW very soon mah man! (I don't know why I'm talking like this tonight...I'm not from the hood)

    Oh yes thanks for reminder, I almost forgot about the purge myself.

  17. !!! ATTENTION ALL IMPERIAL CITIZENS !!!

    As of today the monthly purge of heretics will be commenced. You must report to the authorities (@EndPornLiveLife) that you are present and accounted for within 3 days (the 28th) from now. If you fail to do so I will consider that as a a sign that you a heretic and that you have failed to keep up with the standards that we expect from our citizens. I will add ¤ sign to those who have reported themselves in the meantime to keep track of and weed out the HERETICS amongst you.

    I have already added ¤ to those of you that I see keep coming on here and posting so double check to see that I haven't missed adding ¤ next to your name (in the initial post of this challenge). Note that this only applies to those who have not relapsed this month.​



    Thank you for your compliance and have a blessed day.​

  18. Plenty of support from team Space Marine on this topic @Sebbrix!

    I think I can partly see where @vicicool and @ToMMy.H are coming from, that ultimately its up to you, and we don't know all the intricacies and where your heart is at. Still, I do find it valuable hearing multiple perspectives on a situation and actually think that with big things it's often a good idea to talk with other people before making decisions.

    In any case, I hope that the present situation improves and you can figure out if one of those relationships is going somewhere or not.
