***The Gratitude Attitude Challenge***

Thanks a lot. Sound advice is always welcome

 

@Kingfisher Last night I was about to succeed but I didn't. I remembered about the graphics you showed me. Yet, PMO is deeper than the logical level. Knowing is not enough.

Anyway, today I'm grateful:
-that I'm having a day off and will spend it with my family
-it's a new beginning; I'm gonna fight for this day (it's a one-day challenge now)
-I'm hopeful that I will eventually suceed; I know that. Never gonna give up. I may die trying to succeed but will never give up on nofap. This is my personal progress. I'm not gonna compare myself to anyone. The race between me and my inner PMO addict only.

 

You need to know why you are PMO'ing and how to "defeat" this urge. Do you know the S.T.A.R. method?


One day at a time . You can do this!

Today I am grateful for:

- My nice cup of delicious coffee.
- The sun is shining.
- Clean day of no PMO.

 

Gonna try it next time an urge comes. Thanks, pal.

 

I'm thankful:
-that it's day one, so again I've made progress
-that it's Sunday (gotta prepare for work unfortunately)
-for scrambled eggs (so easy and quick but so delicious)

 

I'm grateful for:
-having met great people on this forum
-having lost some weight
-and, of course, day 2.

 

Keep up the good work @Don80!

Today I am grateful for:

- My job.
- For the rain.
- Clean day of no PMO.

 

43 days @Kingfisher Wow! Quite a streak.

 

Day 0 but I'm grateful for:
-being on day 2 with no-sucrose
-being on day 53 with learning Spanish
-my wife started taking more care of her health (less sugar, elliptical, more vegetables and fruit)

I can turn my life around. Positive habits are gonna pay off in the long run.

 

I'm grateful
-that the day wasn't as challenging as I had imagined it
-that I have another chance to start my life again with a new streak
-that I've been running for 30 minutes; it was another productive day

 

@Don80, keep up the good work! Stay strong .

Today I am grateful for:

- The nice food I had.
- The nice walk in the sun.
- A clean day of no-PMO.

 

Thanks, @Kingfisher. It happened a lot of time to me. 2 or 3 days in a streak - I feel invincible, full of energy. Then some minor event or message comes and all my enthusiasm evaporates and urges come. I feel like I can't cope with anything. I easily snap at my daughter when she misbehaves. And I'm done. In fact, I don't know what is gonna happen tonight. I might plan to score day 1 but it may not happen.

Today I anticipated a horrible day at work. It turned out to be OK, not bad. But the streak was lost. I try to be optimistic but deep inside I'm not.

 

Today I'm grateful for:
-scoring day 1!
-beautiful sunrise
-hope for recovery (I can do it!)

 

Today I am grateful for:

- The nice weather.
- I have a day off from work.
- A clean day of no-PMO.

 

I'm grateful for:
-day 2
-being stronger than PMO
-having a job.

 

@Don80, keep up the good work . One day at a time.

Today I am grateful for:

- My job.
- Had a nice walk today.
- A clean day of no-PMO.

 

Although it's my day 0, I'm still grateful:
-that it's going to be a long weekend
-that I didn't give up on nofap and losing weight
-that I've managed to achieve a lot of things in my life so far but I sometimes don't seem to notice or remember them.

 

I'm gonna have a few day off. I'm grateful for that (less work related stress).
Therefore, I'm grateful for:
-the extra time off which I can use for something productive (I'm full of ideas - Spanish, JS, swimming)
-scoring day 1 again!
-great weather for a BBQ
-"Everybody Loves Raymond", which is a great show
-hope that I can improve my life

So a lot of things today

 

@Don80, keep up the good work . Enjoy your BBQ!

Today I am grateful for:

- It is Saturday.
- I will eat nice food today.
- A clean day of no-PMO.

 

I relapsed after 2 days. It could have been avoided.
Anyway, I'm grateful:
- for putting together another to-do list
- for sunny weather today
- for determination and hope that I beat my personal best in nofap.
