Hi everyone, I'm a 25 year-old Turkish medical student. In 4 months I'm going to be a doctor. And in 6 months I'm going to take a seriously inhumane exam to become a specialist. So I don't have time to procrastinate. I have PMO problem and also have a mild blumia-like eating disorder. I have been struggling with these for a long time. Certainly I'm getting results but I'm tired of my slow progress. Admittedly, I want a dramatic victory. I want to train prefrontal cortex of my brain. I'm on fasting for nearly 50 days. I think fasting is one the most efficient way to improve willpower.(BDNF things...) So, I'm declaring a jihad-al-akbar! Do not be afraid I'm not going to blow up somewhere or something. Jihad-al-akbar(Greater inner jihad) means the struggle of personal self-improvement against the self's base desires in Islamic terminology. The rules of my 60-days challange: 1- No PMO, hard mode 2- No junk food, sugary drinks and white bread 3- No surfing on internet except necessary purposes and writing my diary on Nofap forum. 4- Jogging at least 4 times in a week. While finishing my words, I want to share translation of surah Al'asr from Holy Qur'an. In the name of Allah, the most gracious, the most merciful By time Indeed, mankind is in lost Except for those who have believed and done righteous deeds and advised each other to truth and advised each other to patience. Peace...
I'd be happy my friend. I think junk food is also a sneaky addiction. I'm determined to avoid supernormal stimuli and to get rid of the matrix. Actually I don't drink much coke or something. It's not my priority but eventually it's kinda a supernormal stimuli. I'll try to avoid zero-calory drinks.
