My longest streak was 10 days... that's right. 10 lousy days. I know it sucks =) But I'm happy to reach another 10d in what is my first 14d+ streak. I'm determined this time. I can be horny easily and I have urges obviously, but I'm routing all my power to shields i.e. redirecting this energy. Breaking this habit was the best idea in years. I'm proud to be part of this great community and I'm proud of my personal commitment to this. Thank you all for your support! I've learned a lot on this forum. Special thanks to my AP Son_of_Iroquois for his support and Toshiro for recommending me 'The Life Triumphant' by James Allen! I love this book!
10 days is nothing to be laughed at! It's an important first step, and often times it's the first few days of a challenge which are hardest. Just a quick question "what's the life triumphant" about?
YES! I'm also at ten days so I love this. I can't wait to see how we both rack up the days. Let's do it.
Hey, thanks for asking. I would describe it as a look at the human condition with a firm positive outlook. Its over 100 years old and it lightened me up. This guy is fucking smart. You can find a copy here, it's free http://james-allen.in1woord.nl/?text=the-life-triumphant Thank you all for replying! I appreciate the support.
Seriously, my best is 12 days. Any consistent streak close to 10 days is a victory and that first 12 day streak is really what got me started. One thing: how can I make a bar or counter as my signature? I really want to track my progress, and seeing it under all my comments would be a good motivator
Yeah you can make your own under the link of the counter. I'm happy that I reached 14d this is great. However I 've got a lot to worry about and I can't Switch it off right now. I feel like shit, like a dumb fuck that nooone respects. I know this is a lie but the lie easily wins over my mood when i'm sleep deprived. Im Posting my Journal over at gamequitters. Ppl there sometimes reply to the Journal which is a great Motivation. Especially if you're in secure and very in need of Affirmation, like me...
I feel you on the lies there. Don't be too hard on yourself! I hope you keep fighting the good fight. Good luck
well done 10 days shouldn't be belittled, i can barely get through a day, so congrats, hopefully will be following in your footsteps
