Is this a success story?

Great additude and changes!

 

Good progress

 

Its been said that anytime we try to really change give up alcohol, porn, cigarettes, some crisis comes that provides an 'excuse' to say 'see your efforts amount to nothing'

May sound corny but I was fired six years ago and the first year was a little scary, but I eventually got rehired (via taking a contract job way below my experience ) and now literally (I sound like an infomercial!) doubled my income and got a much more rewarding job. I know look back and laugh that i was afraid to leave that job and thought nothing better would emerge.

 

To answer your question, yes you are a success story. Most change is good and if you keep a positive attitude the change will be for the best. Keep working on the issues that you want to fix and each time you make an improvement you will feel more power and be closer to having everything that you desire.
Peace.

 

Hey Don Gately (I'm currently reading Infinite Jest),

Congrats on over two months clean. That's a huge accomplishment. Here's to two more!

Now that you're not working anymore what are you going to do with all your free time? I know that for me personally, when I'm not keeping a busy schedule I'm more likely to relapse. Hopefully you don't have that problem! Maybe you can use all your free time to rehab your shoulder injury and get back in the gym regularly. Sounds like there's a lot of things that you want to accomplish that seem so far out of reach at age 31. I'd say start small. Big accomplishments don't come out of nowhere. Set small daily/weekly goals. The gym is actually a really great place to start. Maybe you can start with a goal of going to the gym 3 days a week and build from there. Healthy body = healthy mind, right?

Good luck!

 

I agree with you ! Good idea !

 

Sounds like a success! You're making strides in finding out who you really are and what you should be doing, both career and life-wise. It's amazing how life will reveal to you things that you never expected. Good thing in the past you saved up some funds too yeah? You seem to have a healthy outlook on the future for someone who is generally pessimistic so congrats on that as well.

The journey is still young but damn you're doing well it seems. No PMO 68 days and running has already, and will continue to, make healthy impacts on your life. Best of luck to you

 

@Don Gately

Hello Mate,

During my first reboot, I got emotional around day 40 and my Boss tried to fire me.

We have reached agreement eventually with solid financial compensation
(according to law, I did not ask anything extra).

I was stucked in that job for 3 years without promotion working like a dog. Toxic job. Politics, Intrigues. Helping colleagues who got promoted because they were bosses pets.

Working hard on myself even after work...

Later, around 40% (my friends) left because they just could not work in such conditions.

To be honest, it was the best thing which happened to me.

I am much happier person now.

Even if I struggle less, sometimes it can get tough.

Especially with NoFap.

On day 80 you have a perspective. (Imagine the same thing would happen if you would PMOed yesterday...)

I would say, take this opportunity by the horns and do the best of it.

Take the time and consider what you want to do in the future. Where you want to be and how you get there.

Take the time...

Get to your best shape ever.

Maybe slowly start to prepare CV (No Pressure)

I am not sure where you are but we are about to get a summer over here. So Enjoy.

Good Luck and God Bless!

 

listen to this guy, he has hours and hours of talk on you tube. I listen to him all the time.one youtube video is titled, the day that turns your life around.

 

This is what we call success story bro! Happy for you. Hope to feel like you...

 

Success is a process, not a destination.

So, with that in mind, to answer your question YES, that's success. Look at how far you've come.

Continue your course. Improve. Keep on going.
Get a new job, maybe it's going to be an awesome job, maybe it's going to be a stepping stone into an awesome job. Keep improving, that is the true success.

 

Your positivity its overwhelming, you are one of the main reasons I joined this community. You make me feel even more proud of my choice to give up on M and F. I hope you will keep us updated! Keep inspiring people!

 

Is it me, or does he sound like the type of people that just quit their job. Start their own business, and just fucking rake in millions just by blinking ?

 

Well that doesn't happen by sitting home fapping so he's on the right track!
