    Hi Guys

    Sorry but I lied in the topic, (well sort of).

    If you're still reading, what I'd like you to do is imagine you have just begun 'day 365'. You have all the 'superpowers' and attributes you would in your own mind assign to such a feat.

    What would you do with it? What sort of things would you like to put into action or build with this new sense of empowerment?

    I'll start:

    I would like to make a serious go at learning a new language. I'd also like to start playing the guitar again. There are a few other things I can think of but maybe I'll save them for a later post :D

    I would like to just be able to enjoy my work. I have used PMO to avoid work when it is difficult. Now I use nofap. I would like to just work, enjoy and finish for the day. :)

    I'd like to be able to focus on things for a longer amount of time, especially studying and working. Actually, I just noticed I should be studying right now, so I'm going to close firefox after writing this post :D

    As for actual things to do: I'd like to finally plan a backpacking-trip for when I'm done with college. I've been thinking about doing that for a while now but never actually got my lazy ass up to plan this.

    Playing more guitar is already working out for me because I start playing whenever I feel an urge for PMO. It's a very good trick, I highly recommend it! You don't have to wait an entire year to start moving towards your goals!

    I look forwarded to having a much stronger foundation of trust with my wife rebuilt and to be able to enjoy all the lovely little things in our life without needing to view everything through the lens of fapping or NoFap - I will just be me and there will only be one me, not a me who is divided and split.

    In this way I suppose what I look forward to is nofap being not only second nature but simply my nature.

    I love this post! I hope more people comment, because the idea is brilliant.

    I agree with everyone here: learning a language, practicing an instrument (a uke, in my case!), and strengthening my romantic relationship. On my timeline, I hope to be newly married in 365 days (no rings, just serious commitment for now), and I want to be on top of my game for that, without being "divided and split" like mustynasty said.

    I hope to be travelling and seeing lovely girls for the people they are, teaching and respecting my students as people (no matter how they dress or act!). I want to be in love with my wife and with life and ready to share that with everyone I meet. I want to come away from my fapping past with a more compassionate attitude toward other people, knowing that I have my problems too, but with the ability to reach out and hoist them up toward the peak of nofap I have already reached!

    Why are you all putting this off to day 365? Why not start doing those things right now, this day, this moment? Do not wait with this, but do it now. Do not make this a "what if" goal, make it an "I will" goal.

    I will be:
    -one of the best athletes in my sport
    -a succesful student, graduating with an honourable mention degree
    -starting my own company
    -having the best time of my life
    -having a girlfriend who loves me for who I am and vice versa

    I would like to be the manager of a business. A juice bar type establishment would be fantastic. It's not really serious business in the sense that you have cutthroat competition and are pressured to put in 60-70 hours a week, it's kind of relaxed and laid back but at the time the manager position allows one to be serious in their work and gain management experience.

    Also to become close in strength and athletic ability to elite athletes. With that strength naturally comes an adonis type physique. Once I have become completely confident with my body in that sense, then we will renounce the coarse physical realm and set our minds on much loftier, noble aspirations. Lol.

    Confidence, financial security, and the ability to pursue all my interests basically.

    No-one has to wait to day 365, this is just a creative brainstorming exercise :confused:

    I'm going to add another: getting back into football (soccer if you are from USA). Really miss playing.

    I want to form a real connection with another person. It doesn't matter who it is or in what situation. I typically feel in interactions with others that I am a fake or I am deceiving someone else into thinking I'm something that I don't believe I am myself. I want to be confident and know who I am. To thine own self be true and whatnot.

    I'm going to spend an hour on Tuesday (next opportunity for free time) messing around with my old guitar. I will make this a weekly thing.

    I look forward to being able to enjoy a full sense of self-worth and self-esteem that has been damaged continuously over years of addiction. I'm excited to see what that feels like. I have already had a taste of that every now and then. But I believe it can be permanent once I completely overcome my primal urges. Thanks for the post.
