I want to do a September life improvement challenge. This means No PMO, adding new habits to change the way you view life. Working out/reading books/watching self improvement videos. Post everyday about the small things that you do everyday
I'm in. This is a big month for me as my studies come to an end (finally), so I am going to have quite a lot of free time - for better or for worse. So I need some accountability to use this time wisely and undo some of the damage I've done with my head in a book/laptop for the last 3 months...
I'm in. Might not be able to post everyday, but I'll roll through September will y'all. Let's make it happen!
I'm in. My main goal is to reduce the time that I spend on internet (and obviously No PMO for the whole month)
The reason why I started this is to change the status quo. Just to give you guys a bit of background. I'm 33 and have been feeling insecure most of my life. I was recently rejected by a girl that I really liked after first date and I realized that I will continually be rejected by the girl I truly want until I am able to be more confident about myself. Through this month I am looking to improve my image,self-confidence, lower social anxiety,become more spiritual. Day 1: I have started lifting weights after 6 months(I just been doing a lot of cardio these few months). Through weight training and NOPMO I am hoping to build more testosterone which will help increase my confidence. I have watched this video like 5 times today. Rip chadwick- Find purpose
What's a good exercise routine for if you haven't trained in at least a year? I struggle with eating enough calories for exercise too.
day 2: I started reading Psycho-Cybernetics. So far it seems like really good self-help book. Meditated for 30 minutes(I have never tried meditation, hoping to incorporate this into my daily life). Did some weight training again,. I drove downtown today, I wanted to explore the city a bit by myself. I always get nervous when it comes to driving to downtown and figuring out directions. I'm trying to work on my social anxiety by being in places where there are crowds(not a good idea with covid). My goal is to visit 4 different places in downtown by myself and walk around just to get familiar being alone by myself. One of my big fears is going on a date at not knowing my own city, so I want to get over this fear.
DAY 3 Being in a challenge its actually very helpful , this is the first challenge that i get into and it makes me feel more responsable for my action . MY GOAL its just TO BE A NORMAL PERSON AGAIN
Day 3 Yesterday I did a punching bag using an old pants, it kept me busy for more than an hour and was useful to reduce the time I spend in front of the monitor. Regarding NoFap my problem is daydreaming, I'm not consuming porn but my head keeps dreaming about sexual situations and that's enough to get an erection.
Keep going bud. You just need to continue to keep busy. Get out of the house if you have to. As guys we are wired to have sexual thoughts throughout the day. The only thing we can do is distract our minds as much as possible.
