    Quitting jerking off and doing Nofap really is more off like, changing your life style like many are saying it here , but I don't think I am really working on that.
    I mean, I was used to working out everyday for two years ( well those two years were from 2015-2017 ) and then I worked out inconsistently for the last year and this year , never did. Same goes with learning , I mean I just procrastinate all the time man ! I watch all these video's titled "How to end procrastinating" and "At the end of this, you would be doing what you wanted to !" and other such bluffs. I would say they did have an impact on me, but, It's me, right ! I have to take the actions , those people are not going to be doing that for me !
    Another thing is that , I have just decreased the interval between my relapses and I am not still taking initiative to quit porn; So I am making serious decisions here, I am not going to watch porn ever again ! Yeah, I have already made up with those small steps and those are not really working , so I have to up my game. I am not watching porn meaning if I am going to relapse it's going to be porn-free. It's time to call it out of my life , man. I know how it starts , I just start with my exam preparations , watching something that helps me a lot to learn and then , taking meaningless breaks which are advised to be taken in between , where I just start watching football ( The actual one - not American Football ), then get bored again, start watching some clips off on my favourite sitcom videos, then see what's trending on youtube right then , and even if nothing is turning me on, I sit there still waiting for my cravings to take me in ! Then, I say what's the big deal , just this time where still I wouldn't be so convinced with what I had decided , and some how being rebellious still , I give in finally ! Later , i come up here , watch the latest threads posted , see some stuff , sometimes leaving me inspired and update my counter , ( The very point of not PMO-ing so as to resist your temptations for a longer streak so that you won't end up updating the counter is gone now ! ) then maybe sometimes just watch some Nofap memes. Go in into youtube again, but this time being concious that I did that already today, so I wouldn't try it later, you know transferring to P-City .

    The very point of fapping , coming back to update the counter, considering one-self dreadful before giving in to desires is boring and is so much affecting my life ! And this is what I will be doing :
    I am not going to come to NoFap any more than once a week, meaning here-on I will try my best to not relapse , but still if I will , do it only once a week ! I will not do unnecessary wandering on the internet or youtube. I am not essentially going to be using youtube unless there is a need to do so , like if anything I want to learn from is in there , I would consider using it only to get my deed's done ! I would strictly restrict myself from watching anything more of that ! And, I beleive I will do that , because that's is what is going to help me and that is more of turning out to be a necessity ( To stay not getting distracted ). Whenever I am thinking of you know, like watching a youtube video which I feel like watching , I am going to ask myself this : "Do I really need this or Do I want this ?, because I am doing it (watching it) only if there is a need nd not because I want it !". I am also planning on cutting out using my phone and this would be the right time to start that becuase, now that my phone is to be repaired to be used further, I am going to repair it only later to be only using it only for the rarest or for no ocassions at all [ I think the latter might be the one that I am about to do ! ]. So basically just learning my lessons on my Computer , nothing more than that , No more using my phone, no more youtube [ atleast nomore long hours on youtube (or) possibly no more all day on youtube ].
    Next, I started to workout today again , atleast I started , didn't get off to being too intense, just did the warming up and stuff. I am feeling weak and fragile so no intense stuff till I become normal again. Thus, I am thinking of working out too, consistently. I have been into calisthenics for those two years and it's not really much interesting when I am doing only that. I am thinking of hitting like some dumbell curls and other such stuff, because earlier , I was only doing stuff like Push-ups, Crunches, Reverse-Crunches, Russian Twist, Planks, Pull-ups. But, I think I should do an all round thing, covering up almost all parts of my body, So I am also doing that !
    Next , I am planning on quitting Fast food. I will start off by cutting off those packaged snacks that I consume [ And, those (biscuits, chips) are the only kind of fast-food I have ever consumed till date ] within this week and start eating healthy.

    I will also try to cut down my sugar intake. Then, I would try to spend more time with nature. I would cut down time I spend with my mp3 player (or sort-of iPod Touch like thing). Basically I mean, just getting the hell out of using all of these digital devices except for the times when there is a need for me to use them.

    So, I hope I am begining my journey from now, Hope I would see you on 27th of February with some good news.

    Cheers, and Good Luck to everyone else on accomplishing their vision !
