  1. Today I Am Grateful For:

    1.
    For the fact that, while I have relapsed, I have managed to pick myself up again. Onwards, to a new Nofap journey!

    2. For this Google Chrome extension (https://chrome.google.com/webstore/...pj?utm_source=chrome-app-launcher-info-dialog), which, if I get to a dark day and go into incognito mode to PMO, it will redirect me to an inspiring page, if I provide a link in the settings

    3. For this inspiring video by this inspiring man (http://new2.fjcdn.com/movies/ec/80/ec808c_5324137.webm)

    1. I am grateful for the inner strength which helped me not act upon my catastrophic-level cravings last night.
    2. I am grateful for the many hours of practice in mindfulness meditation I've racked up. Awareness of one's thinking has so many benefits.
    3. I am grateful for high-speed internet. It is helping me keep up with the Bernie Sanders campaign in real-time.

    1. Today I'm grateful for the meal my mother bought for me. I had it for breakfast.

    2. I'm so thankful for the Accountability Partners who gave me encouragement after I relapsed yesterday... Due to a break up

    3. I'm grateful for my friends who were there for my when I'm down

    Back to day 1
     
  5. 1. I am grateful for leftover food; reheated pasta tastes strangely better than fresh, to me anyways (but I AM a bit weird...)
    2. I am grateful to a good karate sensei, and a dance instructor, who both taught me new ways to kick-ass/ glide across the floor; I've never before felt the motivation to do things like this!
    3. I am grateful for a more forgiving mind; I feel like I haven't done as much work as I should, which would've really bugged/stressed me out, but now, I realise a lower pace and a good break in life is always good :D

    1. I'm grateful for the smiling Buddha besides my laptop. Constant reminder to return to the present moment and just simile.
    2. I'm grateful for waking up to another day. We take waking up for granted and it's blessings.

    I'm setting myself a challenge: I can only write things I'm grateful for which begin with the letter 'R'. Here we go...
    1. I'm grateful for my roof. It keeps the water and wind out, ensuring my bed and floors are dry and my electronics are preserved.
    2. I'm grateful for rap music. I enjoy it. It gets me fired up to clean the house, punch the bag, etc.
    3. I'm grateful for representative democracy. It beats living under a king or a theocratic dictatorship. The right to vote is precious; don't ever take it for granted.

    2. I am grateful for the winds, as it made getting into the warmth of my flat all the better.
    3. I am grateful to another great friend, who always puts up with my complaining, and is always there to give me advice and foresight, whenever I'm about to go charging ahead. Thanks dude!

    Love you all guys/gals!

    I'm setting myself a challenge: I can only write things I'm grateful for which begin with the letter 'T'. Here we go...
    1. I'm grateful that I live in a tolerant country. Nobody cares if you are an atheist, even though the majority consider themselves Christian. In fact, nobody really cares what religion you have at all. That's fabulous. And although we have a long way to go in terms of race relations, we have made immeasurable progress on this front too.
    2. I'm grateful that my tongue works. It enables me to speak and taste food. If I couldn't speak or taste food I don't know what I would do.
    3. I'm grateful that I can touch-type. I don't know how much time and money I have saved over the course of my life thanks to this skill, but I know that it has been immensely useful for me.
    Tolerance, my tongue and touch-typing. Cool!

    1. I'm grateful for a morning routine. When I was back home I had amazing morning routine. Since being back at university you realize how important it is. E.g. played drinking game yesterday went to sleep at 3 am and waking up not feeling refreshed.
    2. I'm grateful for the seasons. The cold winter makes you appreciate the summer.
    3. I'm grateful for delayed gratification challenge. When stuck by it, I managed to a lot of work done.
    Lessons learned:
    • Stay disciplined and focus
    • Stay in the present moment
    • Bigger rewards are not instant

    Thank you. Thank you. Thank you.
