    Live In Truth.


    What does this mean? Simply, do not do (or say) things that are incongruent with what you already believe as being true. For example, pornogrpahy is bad. Bad for me. Bad for others. Bad for love. Bad for the world. This is a well established truth. Thus, each time I (we) give into the temptation to watch porn I am (we) are living a lie, to which there are serious consequences. Does this resinate with you?


    Live in Truth. This is my (new found) guiding principle in life. With little doubt I can say it will be the greatest challenge I embark on to date. Especially given that much of what I have accomplished in life to date has been mostly grounded in lies and deceit. Deceit of self, deceit of others. UNHEALTHY.


    So, what does it take to “live in truth”?, as posited by Jordan Peterson in 12 Rules to Life - An antidote for CHAOS. As I see it, this requires one to constantly be engaging in evaluation, and revaluation, of what constitutes as truth, to them. This is an arduous process, and will be a humbling one for sure. It must be approached without being overly oppressive, because truth to one is certainly not truth to all, nor will it ever be. However, it should be encouraged for one to dig deeply into the process of deciphering what is true, and what is right (and GOOD). Then the crucial next step - to act in alignment with that truth, and to do so consistently. This is where I have miserably failed, especially in regards to PMO, among other things. Pursuing and perpetuating lies has brought me to a point where a realignment towards truth has become an undeniable need, because a move in the opposite direction is too dark to fathom.


    So, who here is with me in the ambition to Live In Truth?


    Who here has questions?


    Who here has answers?

    For me being a realist is one of the hardest things as I daydream way too much. So facing reality for what it is and living with the truth of certain situations is what I'm striving for now.
    So yeah, count me in.
    Also, my problem in this NoFap journey is not being disciplined enough so how to maintain self-discipline to either cross 30 or 60 or 90 days and many more?
