[90-CHALLENGE] THE NINETY DAYS CHALLENGE !

day 44

 

Days 37 and 38/90

 

Day 1/90

 

All,

I've hit day 91. I've been trying to get here for more than two years. Here's a bit of what I've learned.

The question isn't about whether or not you win the fight. The question is about whether or not you stay in the fight. 3 days ago I walked right up to the line, and I only made it back by thinking about how long it took to get here. My last "good" streak was 63 days in 2019.

The first thing was to treat each day like day 1. You can't assume that you're better just because you've made, 30 or 60 or however many days. For those of you early in, making it to day 3, 7, 15, whatever is as inspirational as any other count. Be the one who makes it that next day to inspire the other guys.

The second thing, is that you've got to expect that the temptation is gonna change. Whatever strategy you use has to change over time. Initially for me it was just needing to avoid the temptation coming from the phone, then it was needing to avoid looking at the covers of the women's magazines in the supermarket or the occasional scantily clad woman at the gym. If you're not in a sexual relationship, the path to success is going to be hard mode or monk mode.

Lastly, make sure you pick yourself up from any lapse quickly. It's easy to binge after you lapse. Don't let it happen. It gets really easy to fall away and think about giving.

Keep at it boys, and here's to a good 2022!

 

2/90

Worked out again (not the max amount of reps I can do, but enough to strain me) for the third day in a row. I will work on maintaining this as I care mostly about building structure and discipline on a daily basis right now.

My morning routine:

Wake-up
Shower
Make bed
Breakfast
Watch Cultivate Crypto (or another video if he hasn't posted that morning)
Work out
Brush Teeth

I like to have a certain order to the things I do in the morning as I tend to be most lazy during that time... If I left it up to me I'd just sleep all day. Conquering the morning will be huge for me! I have learned to jump in the shower right away and that I should watch the video on my computer, not in bed on my phone or I'll fall back asleep.

Truth be told I haven't been doing this properly in awhile so I'll be back at it as I think it was very critical to my success last time. So yeah, reestablishing this will be my first goal for this streak.
