Day 3 checking in,
I feel like I have finally developed the right attitude for my ambitions. My aim is to at some point be free of pornography and masturbation, which I understand is a very difficult task. I am fighting evolutionary biology and my own brain. However, I have seen other people achieve it, so I know that it is POSSIBLE and I have achieved an abundance of rewards when I abstained, so I know the goal is WORTHWHILE.
Now what do I mean by "I have developed the right attitude"? I have learned from my accountability buddies to not look at this process as a chain of relapses that returns me to square-1 but a process of fine-tuning where each relapse is a blind-spot that I was not aware of. A hole in my game-plan that I only learned through a failure, which I can now plug.
I will aim not to fall, but if I do fall, I will continue my journey wiser than I was before I fell.

Daily check-in,
I was reading a post made by a Nofap User named Cosmo which urged us to focus on changing our lives and not just on abstaining from porn.
My goal is recovery, not abstinence. My life has become a twisted, warped version of the existence that I desire, but it's not porn's fault that I'm here. I watch porn and masturbate because I'm running away from a life that I find painful, I'm running away from negative emotions and I am running away from discomfort. The root of my problem is me, it's not porn. I need to work very hard on myself and improve my life, beyond just abstaining from PMO.
Could I get to a point where I don't want to be absent from my life? Could I get to the point where I cherish my negative emotions and don't run from them? Could I get to the point where I am comfortable with discomfort? Could I live a life that I don't want to be absent from? I'll only know if I try.
