Tidy your room

One of the rules for life that Jordan Peterson states is to tidy your room. I took this advice rather superficially making it a priority to simply clean and organise things. My TV set in my room recently broke, pissed off, I was looking at fixing it / having it repaired / selling it as faulty to no success. I removed the TV from my room including my PlayStation then before you know it I thought what's the point in storing DVDs, games, cables and even the unit all my media stuff is kept in. My room looks rather empty now. I keep my laptop plugged in the living room and I'm spending more time interacting with my parents than ever. Limiting use on my phone is the next step even though I've never searched for porn on there, but already I've found the benefits of not having a TV in my bedroom, I'm interacting with family members more and refraining from PMO unconsciously because my bedroom is pretty much empty and my laptop is kept downstairs. This is the longest I've gone without PMO even though it's only been weeks, I'm feeling a general sense of improvement, my sleep has improved so I feel more refreshed for the next morning. I would recommend to anyone to just get rid of your TV in your room or have no TV at all.

 

I have an acoustic and a les paul in my room and I play them in the space where the TV used to be. I get what you mean about the motivation thing though, it happens to me quite frequently. Just in general I have a tendency to start something in excitement then down the line I lose motivation and get disheartened learning and playing guitar when I see all the talent on Youtube and I think it will take me ages learning to play to that level. But at least it's better than watching TV and playing video games, I'd rather be old and playing guitar than be old and still playing video games and watching mind numbing TV

 

Impressive

 

Sounds promising. Just the idea of improving cognitive function appeals me. I've spent the last 15 years addicted to PMO and probably only just realised over the last two years I suffer with issues such as brain fog, indecisiveness and social awkwardness. I don't want to look a girl the eye and get flashbacks from escalated porn use and lose the ability to hold a conversation. I'll continue to play guitar hopefully more regularly even if I don't improve my playing I simply want to improve cognitive function.
