Beyond NoFap: Stepping up the challenge.

[Deleted]

OK to explain this simply, even though I have not completed 90 days of nofap yet, my brain has pretty much recovered from PMO addiction to the point that even accidental triggers do not tempt me into PMO, and I am extremely sensitive ( I guess that's normal sensitivity really) to arousal i.e just a picture of a fully clothed hot girl will give me a boner 60% of the time.

I have experienced all the benefits of NoFap, increased energy,increased confidence, better eye contact etc. But I feel as if those benefits are not an end in themselves once you get to an advanced stage in nofap where I am now.

Basically what I am saying is that nofap for me is no longer 'the ultimate challenge' its just my day to day.

So after PMO addiction recovery has been achieved I simply feel that it is not enough, now I realize that the benefits of nofap are actually tools to improve upon yourself further and get even stronger physically and mentally. Nofap is just the beginning of a new addiction that makes you wan't to get out there and kick ass.

So I have taken it upon myself to set myself new challenges riding off the momentum of nofap.

Cold showers Very challenging at first, I am still having a lot of fun with these, you can research the benefits if you are interested.

Cold approaching women during the daytime.Now this is a true challenge that will humble the most egotistical of men, its pretty much my main focus at the moment it It will be an extremely long time before it ceases to be a challenge ( if it ever does).

Martial arts tricking A type of acrobatics derived from sport karate described as an "aesthetic blend of flips, kicks, and twists." Its usually done outdoors on grass or in a gymnastics center but I have access to neither due to distance and winter weather conditions. So I am just focusing on stretching for flexiblity and strength training until spring/summer.

I also have my eyes set on relearning to play the guitar and BMX tricks so I am saving my money up. But I still have a long way to go as I still have problems with surfing the net constantly when I should be doing chores,school work etc, I will devise a way to sort that out but I don't want to make this post to long to read so another time.

EDIT: IGNORE THE THUMBNAIL

Thanks for sharing your experience. And with 64 days PMO free, you're an old-timer around here. I think you're right about looking at this as a lifestyle change and not just a goal to be reached. I hope to make it to my 64th day, too!

i think you are on the right track, to challenge yourself you will grow and learn alot, and when you said that the improvements made from the nofap challenge are tools to grow even more you are completly spot on.

keep going and keep us posted!

Alright, so I approached a women today in the shopping mall, with confidence and strong eye contact gained from nofap,it paid off, I invited her out on a date right then and there and she gave me her phone number.

Also I won't be getting back into guitar as my music tastes have changed so much since I used to play it and I am not really into guitar based music anymore so I would have no songs to play really.

Same for BMX aswell, I want to just stick to one physical activity at the moment. so I can get really good at it rather then spread myself between two.
