Benefits disappearing?

I mean for me the longer I go without porn or masturbation, the more powerful in life I feel and behave.

 

In a previous 61 day streak, my confidence skyrocketed and I connected with people on a level I have never experienced before. I lost a bit of confidence when I relapsed but I still feel the base confidence is there. I think in conjunction with self improvement/development projects there should be continual growth rather the the benefits disappearing.

 

Superpowers are only super powers to the extent that a vampire who becomes a mortal human again can now walk in the sunlight without burning and doesn't crave blood. But after a while he stops thinking about them as crazy cool superpowers and learns to call them "Normal human existence".

After that you learn to concern yourself with actual achievements and meaningful things that are now much easier to reach because you aren't skulking around all the time.

 

Leaves may fall but the tree keeps growing.

Eternal renewal. Change is the only constant.

 

Well said.

This whole super powers is just the ability to stay focused on something more than yourself pleasure.

 

When are we going to man up and take responsibility for our actions, decisions, and life...? We need to stop richocheting our faults/problems on others. I finally look at myself internally and reflected on my bad choices and behaviors and realize that I am the major problem. I need to stop blaming others and situations for where I am today. I had control and the choice to move in a direction that did not involve PMing but I chose to be in my predicament. No one told me to watch porn, no one told me to masturbate, no one told me to be oblivious to my life....I made this epoor decisions. I was told that fornication was wrong, I still did it. I was told to treat others as you would like to be treated, I didn't. I was told to be a good person, I wasn't always. So this is why I am taking responsibility for myself and my actions and apologize to anyone I ever did wrong. Today I will break from these chains of guilt and start new.

 

Like kayesem said. It's a bit like workout for 2 years. You're healthy and super charismatic...lots of 'super' 'powers' right? then get depressed, start eating crapy food, watch tv and sit down all day, be stressed. It may seem like super powers have gone. But you are still buff. You still have the vitality in you. The good habits/persona in you. The naurological development in your brain/mind.

Essentially people are surpressing when these super powers seem to go away. Think of it like a star in the sky. As you keep it up your size increases. If you also exercise and diet well and are not stress you will shine a bit more than if you were to not and basically surpress yourself. So when they begin to surpress because of accumulated inactivity, they stop shinning at full strength but the size is there, haha. Watch one fap for one hour after 100 days, see them loose not the shine but the size of their 'star'. I have discussed this recently in a new post I made about "Ayurveda" in this section of the forum.

 

I beleve the benefit of self discipline never leaves sometimes are mind just plays games with us to make it seem like the benefits left they didnt

 

I once rebooted for 83 days and never experienced “superpowers”. My dick did get better. I think superpowers are largely a myth.

 

At some point the "super powers" may start to just feel like normal because your at a higher level constantly. Thats why its good to keep a journal so you can reflect upon your positive changes

 

Well, actually NoFap is like a "boost" on our pursuit for the so much talked super powers (disinhibition, focus, intelectual growth, physical strength, spiritual growth, etc). The thing is:

- You stop watching porn: your mind gets more clear from ilusions of life.
- You stop wasting semen on bathroom sink (when it's a men on NoFap): your semen drains to energy to study, interact with real people, go to gym, etc.

The super powers don't come naturally. We've got to developt them too. But NoFap is an EXTREME boost on this matter. I can say for myself. On 81 and 110 days of hard mode, I could read a lot of books and learn from them with much more easiness, and interact with other people much more naturally

 

To me NoFap is about fixing my dick and improving my impulse control. Has it helped in those two areas? Absolutely.

 

I’d say healthy body, healthy mind because the body and mind has a very close/intimate relationship with each other.
