Today was not the best day for me. For 2 days, i have regularly posting on nofap.com and i have been self disciplined, but today I was not self disciplined. When I felt pressure, i immediately conceded and allowed myself to panic and I subconsciously thought that because I am feeling pressure, I must give in. I did not embrace the pressure, but I allowed to control me. This is the key to success in nofap. It is all about the way in which you approach the pressure that comes from the road to self improvement and success. If you allow this pressure to consume you, you will panic. Panic is a dangerous emotional state to be in. When you are in panic you do a million mistakes and you end up regretting everything. This is why never approach your success emotionally. When I allowed myself to be consumed by the pressure and panic, my commitment decreased from 100 percent to 99 percent. If we were to approach pressure in a logical manner rather than an emotional one, we would be making wiser and more clear-headed decisions. For example, if you allow yourself to be controlled by pressure when you feel tension, pressure, and an urge to stray away from success, you will most certainly bow down to the pressure be enslaved to it. On the other hand, if you approach that urge in a logical manner, you will have more time to think about the causes of this pressure , and you will most likely make the right decision of using this energy or tension as a force for good. What this basically means is that you have to be very careful and attentive when you feel that sort of tensions and urge to seek instant gratification. Think about why you are feeling this pressure and use as fuel to success. Don’t throw away your gallon of gas, your protein shake. Today I almost relapsed because I allowed that pressure to consume me. If what I was looking for weren’t blocked, I would have probably fallen into that vicious cycle again.
