We. Are. Warriors!!!

(Hi all. Traveller22 here. The following is the latest post in my journal - I have posted it on the main forum, in the hope that it will be an encouraging rallying call to the warrior within each one of us & in particular, the majority who will not read my journal. While it is written as a man & aimed primarily at men who have come of age (18-21+), it in no way excludes women, who have a might warrior within.)

The further I walk along this road, the more understand how manhood & self-mastery are two sides of the same coin. If you agree with me on that point, then we need to be honest with ourselves and admit to the following:

For a full-grown man, PMO is adolescent, regressive behaviour. We have been engaging in this behaviour & allowing it to have mastery over our manhood, because amongst other things, we have lost something fundamental to our sense of manhood - we've become stunted & blocked in certain areas of our lives.

Life force channelled into PMO = life force unavailable for our relationships, protecting our loved ones, providing for them, nurturing them, working towards our goals & manifesting our potential. But it's far worse than that.

I now believe PMO is psychically carcinogenic.
It is causes cancer of the soul & mind.
It leads to fear & self-loathing.
It is the anti-thesis of warrior-hood.

Take a look at Google News. What do we see? Stories of violence, needless suffering, injustice, women & children being terrorised & exploited. Corruption run amok. Men being manipulated by sex, sex, sex. All the while, the world cries out, "Where are the warriors? Those who will stand for what is right. For fairness. For the environment. For the children. Where are they?"

In truth, right now, a significant portion of would-be warriors are fapping - or thinking about fapping - and of that group, probably the majority have some level of porn addiction. We have been so busy craving or getting our next dopamine hit via PMO, that we have failed to see the enemy at our collective doors, bent on our destruction.

Had the free world in the early 1940's had similar levels of PMO addiction amongst the adult mail population, I doubt they would have defeated the Nazi's. Extreme? Maybe. Either way, I'm sure of one thing.

We cannot be a warrior AND an active PMO addict at the same time.

Our recovery as men truly starts when we believe & know this: WE. ARE. WARRIORS.

Say it to yourself. "I. AM. A WARRIOR." And again: "I. AM. A WARRIOR."

Every day, stand in your bedroom, in your garden, in the bathroom, in front of a mirror or wherever & say to yourself 10 times, slowly & with conviction:

I. AM. A WARRIOR.
I. AM. A WARRIOR.
I. AM. A WARRIOR.
I. AM. A WARRIOR.
I. AM. A WARRIOR.
I. AM. A WARRIOR.
I. AM. A WARRIOR.
I. AM. A WARRIOR.
I. AM. A WARRIOR.
I. AM. A WARRIOR.

Does your PMO habit feel like it will always get the better of you?

I. AM. A WARRIOR.

Do you feel any of the following?....like a wimp, incompetent, like a sissy, unattractive, defeated, depressed, like a loser, scared, anxious, like no-one likes you, tired, bored, lacking in energy & direction, full of doubt, out of control....

Know the truth about your inner, true, core self: I. AM. A WARRIOR.

If we connect to that archetype within us, we will prove to be a ferocious & unrelenting foe of PMO.

It's us versus PMO.

There can be only one.

Let's kill PMO for good. It is after all, but the first step on the path of our calling. A rock in the way, in need of removal.

May the light of your love for those dear to you, your own self & all you that you treasure, light the fire of the warrior within you

We are warriors.

Stand!

Thanks Venom & MDJM - that was burning in my heart yesterday, so I decided to write it down - as much to remind myself as for anyone else.

Here's to a strong, victorious week.

Thanks for the positive words - I appreciate it.
