    Hi guys,
    21 days of PMO, without problems.I think, bigger challenge for me is to have 30 days without social networks,chatting with girls,meeting with them etc.
    Lets go, I will try it.
    Maybe stop watching TV series in order to improve my language is also big challenge, what do you think?
    I should try to take physical and psychical excercisining instead of social networks, chatting and watching TV series.
    I am starting tomorrow morning...except this page of course

    Was pulling your leg :D

    I believe overall you're quite on the right track with your approach. Chatting doesn't compare to face-to-face conversation. TV series don't usually add much value, they steal your time for what I consider to be cheap entertainment.

    Picking up more exercise sounds great indeed. I would also add some reading, especially stuff that gives you different perspectives, or makes you think. Add in a hobby or two and you'll not have the time to hit on girls, they'll seek your attention.

    In case it gives you food for thought, I go to the gym at 6am and do only 3 exercises: squats, military presses and deadlifts (look for Starting Strength). I read a lot about depression ("running on empty" for example), and watch lectures on philosophy (youtube Wes Cecil, Harvard Justice). As hobby, I picked up again photography.

    Not speaking with girls, as a rule, I think it's not healthy, because, apart from sex, they also offer a more emotionally balanced conversation. A coffee here and there to discover the human behind a pretty face, I think does wonders.

    Last, general, suggestion is to not do it as a challenge, but rather as a lifestyle change.

    thanks...I didnt handle it today...
    maybe problem is my job...I have to call a lot and a strong resistance is there and then procrastination...
    and then chatting etc...maybe missing motivation to do it.Of course, money, but maybe it is not enough
