The Nofap Pledge. A daily reminder that is serving me well.

its been about 3-4 days since my last relapse and when I announced that I am no longer or very rarely coming to this wonderful site since its sort of being detrimental to me as I have or rather had trouble of letting go. Sorry guys. But I am doing what works for me.
And theres no point in resetting my counter because I am not coming on this page for my personal reasons.
I had an epiphany. A wonderful idea. A pledge. A promise. Something I read every morning as a daily ritual to make sure I had a clean day. Its like a summary of my big self-motivational journal I wrote daily and invested soo much time in but unfortunately journals don't work for me.
This pledge that I am going to write now can be used not only as an example, but as the real thing. You may disagree with the views stated in this pledge. (pledge is a fancy word that means a promise. Its a daily reminder). This pledge contains everything and all the motivation I need to stay clean. You are free to alter it, make changes, put in new words or write your own pledge.
RESPECT IT ABIDE BY IT AND IT WILL AND IT HAS TO SERVE YOU WELL.

My daily pledge:
I, 'your name here', admit that I am powerless over this addiction and never ending desire. I am an addict and if I am not, I can easily become one.
I take my inspiration from the lives of non addicts.
I have understood the science and working of this addiction (if not, read the whole www.yourbrainonporn.com website) and I know that it can be beaten.
I have all the proper tools, mindset and education I need. I am taking smart steps, decisions and being rational today. I have a realistic grip over my strengths and weaknesses and I know whats good for me.
I know I shall be rewarded well in time for my actions.
I am trying to quit. I shall quit. I have quit.
PMO is a thing of the past. It doesnt bother me. There is no place for it in my heart and mind and it wont cross my mind. Worrying or thinking about it won't help me in any way.
I am free. I shall be free. I will be free.
I shall never lose the seriousness of this addiction.
I will also embrace failure in the form of relapses for I am very human (this shall not be my excuse) and bound to make mistakes but I SHALL NOT BINGE. I shall learn from it and move on.
I shall indulge in meaningful activities, be busy, produtive and give in my best today for today is all that matters and how I spend my days define my life.
And if failures do come in the way, it means God/Life wants to give me a real shot at being successful later.( not an excuse to relapse)
I have understood that improvements dont happen overnight and that Rome wasnt built in a day.
I have set my priorities. I shall have a clean conscience today. I will not slip today. I will not lose hope. I will pray to God.
I shall fill my days with passion and meaning.
I am a good human being..

So thats about it.
Rules/suggestions:
1) You have moved on.
2) You have quit PMO. Which means you cant think, worry, miss it. Nothing. You can live without this. Theres no place for it in your heart and mind
3)Have fun. spend time with family, genuine friends. Screw up. Have fun. I GUARANTEE YOU ALL YOUR WORRIES WILL CEASE WHEN YOU ARE WITH YOUR BUDDIES. Lets make this reboot fun. SURROUND YOURSELF WITH PEOPLE. NEVER STAY ALONE. SOCIALIZE AS MUCH AS POSSIBLE. LIVE LIFE.
4)Relapses will happen. Might happen. Might not. Whatever. But you will not think about your last relapse or worry about your future relapse. You are living in the moment or the present. The safest place. Do not binge never ever do that .
5) Active involvement on your side to beat anxiety and what not.
6) FUCK WORRYING about ed, de, pe all that shit. It will cure. It has to cure. You have limited time left on this earth. ENJOY, WORK HARD AND ALL THAT.
7)Counting number of days and taking counters too seriously. Ive done that. Doesnt help. I stopped counting days. Notice how I say about 3-4 days since my last relapse. Ive had enough of thinking - "when will i reach 90 days and all that. fuck it. I am playing big on life right now.
