One more day heading South my brothers. Here´s a interesting read on the distinction between nofap and semen retention. Althought the LOTR challenge is a nofap challenge, this take is also very interesting if you consider doing semen retention altogether. Have a great day!!! From our brother Homo Deus, now sober for 150 days. "This is why Semen Retention is 100% better than noFap When you do Semen Retention, you are ‘doing’ something instead of trying NOT to do something. Always works best using positive than negative. Subconscious minds appreciate. When I switched to SR, my journey became not easier, but POSSIBLE. The highest streak on noFap: 46 days. The highest streak on SR: who knows, it looks like its never going to end. 100% post from SR Reddit 100%. Without a doubt, Semen Retention is a practice, a ritual, that a man does to become 100% him. A 100% man. We know that a man has testicles and prostate. And semen. So we, retainers, are 100% manly. You may have gotten accustomed to this state. But 99% of men release their semen. We don’t. 100%. That number means: Completely. Totally. Fully. Which life do we wanna live? A 50, 70, 95% lived life is shameful. The Sun burns at his 100% capacity. We humans are the most divine beings in existence. Why wouldn’t we vibrate at 100% capacity? 100%. If somebody watches you, they should immediately perceive a 100% man. This man is concentrated. Mentally powerful. Bodily powerful. His eyes are piercing. His hands carry Chi. He is in control of his body. He is aware of his own thoughts, like a reader is aware of the words he reads, like a radio listener listens to spoken words. He feels emotions at maximum capacity. 100%. This man dies with a smile on his face because he lived 100%. People think that living 100% means to self destruct: eating whatever, using drugs, doing stupid things. That is not living at 100%. One should aim to nurture oneself through a 100% nutritious food. One should speak with 100% certainty. One should think with 100% clarity. One should dream with 100% intensity. One should breathe with 100% meaning. One should be 100% what one is. Because Semen completes us as men. Our brain uses our semen nutrients to be 100% brain. In this journey, we got more of ourselves. A lot of men in this journey feel more like our real selves. This is because our Semen IS ourselves. It is made out of ourselves. Do you know why there’s a lack of heroism in today’s culture? Why everybody seems depressed? Because people embrace less than 100% being themselves. Most people vibrate at a 50% capacity. Men drain their Semen, women hang out with drained men and show a similar vibration. Your DNA is your inner vibration. It is made of all your ancestors. If you allow yourself to get into the 100% level of vibration, your life suddenly becomes the greatest act of all time. You become so aware of existence that you don’t want to find “life’s meaning”, because your own existence is the meaning. 100%. Society forced you to lower your vibration somewhere along the line. They didn’t want you to shine like the Sun shines. They feared you. They feared your power. So they made you believe that becoming less of yourself is the way to go. But that makes people feel bad. 100%. Just imagine what would you look like, if you tapped into being 100% you. People will look at you like Kings were stared. There’s an inner divinity in the 100% man. Only you know yourself at 100%. Only you can tap into a 100% existence. The 100% man is a hero. He is the protagonist of his life. He is looked up to by the rest. He doesn’t “search” for anything. He follows with his body, the light of his spirit. He is 100% connected to his own light, so he is never in darkness. 100%. Just imagine yourself at 100%, what did you see? I see Purpose. Meaning. Elegance. I see a life lived like a lightning strikes the earth, like the ocean makes waves, like the Sun shines. Why less? There’s no way. The only Way, or Tao, is 100%. If it is at 99%, don’t do it. If it is at 99.99% capacity, do not do it. Act at 100% intensity. Like a lightning strike. Like an eagle hunts. Is it possible? It is. Proof? Read this post. This post was written at 100% capacity. There’s no difference with me writing this post at 100%, and me living at 100%. So it is possible. So what can you do? Only You know. The only thing I will say now is: Do not accept 99.99%. Be 100%. Why? Because 100% is what your DNA is aiming at. Release your inner thunder. See you on the other side."

Day 20 Got close to relapsing a few minutes ago as my phone blocker went down. I typed in a search and then changed my mind and figured out how to get the blocker going again. It was a close one, but after I figured out how to re-engage the blocker, I can on here to read about how others are doing and then to post about my near miss. I am glad to have this community. Best, Mathman1994
Member that guys, you have to TORN INTO PIECES the urges, not just push them back, like Boromir did against the Uruk, you MUST fight to the death. I like to think that the Nofap army are the Rohan at Pelennor Fields, and we are charging all together the Dark Lord Sauron (porn) hordes (urges)
Oh, not time for my checkin yet but a couple of things whilst I remember. One, I finished the LOTR books the other day, about day 2 I think. I am officially a scholar of middle earth . I've never actually watched the movies though, so I guess that's next. Two, something that's been very helpful to me since I started doing it is this meditation from the same series @RiseToGreatness recommended to me and many others. I find it best to do when I can feel an urge in the back of my head but it isn't yet at the point where it's overpowering. Essentially, with the audio as a guide, I like to very fleetingly bring thoughts of porn I've watched in the past (or porn I get flashbacks about) to the forefront of my mind, and then focus not on the image but on the physical feelings said images create in my body. A lot of the time by simply shifting the focus from the thoughts of porn to the feelings those thoughts create I notice the urge I was previously feeling slowly drift away. I hope this helps some of you as much as it has helped me.
Day 6. For Saruman! Rohan will fall! Today I'm tired due to the hard work. That means a warning: in these moments relapsed is more easy. Stay strong, my fellow. The Sacred Heart protects specially who is devoted to him.
Try to not make easy on yourself for acessing those devices. Try to use the smarphone only with people around you, or with people in the house, doors open. the blocker save you now, but it was a close call, so take measures bro, don´t wait until the next urge. Meanwhile, Congratulations!!! You arrived at Bree, have a beer
