    A journey of 90 days starts with a single hour.

    You can't stop worries from flying over your head like birds.
    But you can stop them from building nests on your head.

    The worse you are feeling right now the more you are healing.
    Because the pathways that are calling, crumbles as you ignore them.

    He who preforms the same task over and over expecting different results is mad. So learn from your mistakes, adapt and conquer.

    Great to see some others contributing here. Thanks for all the moral support guys.

    “In the long run, we shape our lives, and we shape ourselves. The process never ends until we die. And the choices we make are ultimately our own responsibility.”

    -Eleanor Roosevelt



    "In the long run, men hit only what they aim at. Therefore, they had better aim at something high."

    -Henry Thoreau

    'I've learned that no matter what happens, or how bad it seems today, life does go on, and it will be better tomorrow.'

    I've learned that you can tell a lot about a person by the way he/she handles these three things: a rainy day, lost luggage, and tangled Christmas tree lights.

    'I've learned that regardless of your relationship with your parents, you'll miss them when they're gone from your life.'

    'I've learned that making a 'living' is not the same thing as 'making a life.'

    'I've learned that life sometimes gives you a second chance.'

    I've learned that you shouldn't go through life with a catcher's mitt on both hands; you need to be able to throw some things back...'

    I've learned that whenever I decide something with an open heart, I usually make the right decision.'

    'I've learned that even when I have pains, I don't have to be one.'

    I've learned that every day you should reach out and touch someone. People love a warm hug, or just a friendly pat on the back...'

    'I've learned that I still have a lot to learn...'

    I've learned that people will forget what you said, people will forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel.'

    People, even more than things, have to be restored, renewed, revived, reclaimed, and redeemed; never throw out anyone.

    Am feeling a little down today and 2 quotes 'spoke' to me...

    “Take time for all things: great haste makes great waste. “ – Benjamin Franklin

    Your goal may be 90 days. But your task is today. You cannot be held responsible for 'tomorrows you'.
    So focus on today. Let 'tomorrow you' worry about 'tomorrow you'.
    I have faith in him and you. Don't you?

    Day 1

    This Am decided on my own to go on the PMO wagon. Got home from a business trip & caught this article at Crisis Magazine: http://www.crisismagazine.com/2013/resistance-to-porn-from-an-unlikely-place. Which led me here. As I was reading the thread, couldn't help but thinking of a GK Chesterton quote. "It's not that Christianity has been tried and found wanting. Rather, it has been found difficult and not tried." I think you can accurately apply this to giving up PMO as well. Day one for me, I'll just take it a day at at time and make sure to post progress. Good site & thread.

    It's been awhile since I found anything to post here. Great to see some others filling the void. Thanks. Keep the quotes coming.
