Day 45 and I’m feeling good. Urges quite strong over the last week or so but I’ve learnt from other streaks that relapses tend to come when I’m idle and not focussed on important things I should be doing. What have I learnt in those 45 days? Well this is what I’ve found: - Performing heaps better at the gym - weight loss - better mood - better morale - no approval seeking from others - faster growth of hair - looking after myself better - wanting to be more social with others and scoring dates with a few girls - attention from the opposite sex - glowing skin - friends noticing I have a higher vibrational energy in my voice and presence - much more confidence, as I’ve noticed I walk like I own myself, I walk with my chest open - feeling like I can take on anything - clearing away old programs and energies from childhood that hampered my progress And this is only what I can think of from the top of my head. NoFap has without a doubt changed my life. Gentlemen, we are a privileged few. Not many will be able to experience what we do. The light at the end of this tunnel we call life holds all of what this world has to offer and so much more. NoFap teaches us that to have what it takes to get over PMO, is the same thing it takes to earn and be the very very best. We become the strongest possible versions of ourselves as a result. Isn’t that something worth fighting for?
Great post, really motivational! If you get low read this post back and it’ll give you the drive to stay strong. When you’re going through hell, keep going!
You are my competitor, man. Let's feed off each other. I'm in a very similar streak as you. I wish you all the success in the world. Be true to yourself and believe in your self. You will make it to 90, if you want it. Send some prayers my way, too. I've never made it past the 63-65 days.
I would say so, yes. I want to be outside rather than indoors so I can make connections and be around people. One thing I want to add is that I still procrastinate but it’s something I’m consciously working on.
Nice thanks for sharing! One thing that keeps me busy is being busy, I notic when I have a job I tend to want to be more busy after work to keep that trend up or something but when I don’t work I stay home and be lazy, maybe find little things you can do through the day, like meditate, read, clean up, look for jobs etc.. maybe plan your day so that you know what you’re doing and what time you have left to do more or less
This is a motivating post, I'm working to reach this for myself in due time. I hope you progress further and good luck bud
A few of you have said this has been quite a motivating post. Should I do more posts like this? And if so, how often?
Definitely keep em coming dude! I've experienced all of the benefits you describe first-hand multiple times and I'm currently starting again with NoFap. Whenever you find something worthwhile to write about just post about it. I don't know maybe once a week or so. Thanks and cheers!
Awesome! Plus it’s very therapeutic for myself to write/chronicle my own NoFap journey. On a personal level, one of the biggest reasons I’ve been able to keep a streak this long is because I’ve shifted long-held beliefs about myself that were actually a load of BS. Through healing, meditation and confronting my past, I’ve been able to clear these one by one. It’s all about taking this journey one day at a time guys. Don’t think too far ahead but at the same time, your whole life is ahead of you. I’ve seen too many people here who are newbies who start off enthusiastically but later on find that this is harder than they thought and end up quitting. It’s all very well talking the talk but can you walk the walk? That’s where real shifts begin to happen.
I feel some kind of spiritual connection to you dude! You write in my voice, if that makes sense. Best of luck on your journey. I wish you massive success! Don't ever look back, because I'm slowly but surely catching up with you What kind of meditation do you practice? I'm currently trying out TM but have yet to make it a daily habit.
Hey @ifthisislove …… I just wanted to thank you for a truly inspirational and motivational message….. It has really help me pick myself back up and fight on. I can really empathise with what you are saying about idle hands!!! I have had long streaks in the past a few 40 plus and one 72 days but then relapsed. But I found when I did I was because I stopped doing things like getting out at weekends with my hiking group , not going to the gym , not meditating…. If I sit in with no plan and allow negative thoughts to come into my head its game over… I have been struggling the last few days but reading your post has reminded my why I am fighting this. Any way I hope you are doing well and keep fighting P …..
I’m glad I could be of help to you. It’ll be my 50th day tomorrow and I nearly fell yesterday as I peeked slightly at an image of a girl on a dating site. I have also deleted Instagram from my phone as a precaution, too dangerous a place of “models” and “feminists” who in reality have a serious case of daddy issues and approval seeking. I didn’t get much of a dopamine rush or blue balls as it all subsided within an hour. I shall keep on keeping on. So tomorrow I’ve set the intention of spending most of the day outdoors. I have a business meeting and then heading to the gym. You’re not defeated until you throw the towel in people. You owe yourself a chance to have the best life possible.
