Checking in Day 17 of my 3rd 30. I got busy. I didnt notice that I am passed to my second 30 ! But there are times that I was really tempted to fap. I rarely watch porn. Like crime, the two elements are chance and habit. I chanced upon a downloaded porn in a public online store since I am off grid everything, hard monk and full vegetarian for more than 20 years without any relapse of any bit of food or soup with meat, so I knew that I had to turn off the video but the subconscious as usual was strong. There is a trick here which I teach to students --- look at the corner of the screen then exhale then linger on the corner of the screen like it was your better or best self. I lingered a bit before that and I knew that later on bed and when alone the scenes will visit me. That is when the many-times-a-day reading of nofap material and spiritual books on the sacredness of mind and body helped me. I would just stand up do work or wear my running gear and run. Big thanks to everyone here and the creators of nofap and the creators of this challenge. And to the Soaring Eagle material. I am going for the one year challenge and I pray people are still here to inspire. Great kindred. i pay homage to those who accomplished these challenges before me.
