      Day 34. If ever feel like you can’t do anything. Close your eyes and ask “what’s my best next move?” Then countdown from 5 and start moving.

      I’m on day 32. Passed the 1 month mark.

      Going to keep going past day 30. No more goals. I’m not shooting for day 90, to break my record, or 1 year.

        I’m following what James Clear said in Atomic Habits. “We don’t rise to the levels of our goals but fall to the levels of our system.”

        I’ll keep following the healthy systems I’ve created for myself, adjusting them only for the better.

      Day 29. Nocturnal emission this morning. Don’t even remember any graphic images. Just remember waking up, it happening, and sleeping again.

        Nocturnal emission usually stem from the mind..fanstasizing, not being 100% strict. Its good to try to minimize them. There were some deep posts on forum from one chinees guy here. Try to find em.

      Day 28. Whenever you’re this close to day 30, all you can think is “unbelievable” “finally” and just so happy and proud of what you’ve done.

      Day 25. Definitely still in the Flatline. Easy to no PMO, but not easy to get things done.

        I try not to speed read. It’s crazy what you can learn and the connections you make with other ideas when you really absorb the material. But when it comes to college work, I understand. Some majors like PreLaw and PreMed will expect a nigh unreasonable amount of reading.

      Had a trigger. Really want to start up a dating app. I’ll keep the urge at bay. Looking in the past, those apps are like a tasty poison.

        She’s with someone else lol. Tbh, my first thought when I was certain was “dammit, you gotta be kidding me” my second thought was “whew” pure relief. I found out before I confessed to her, and I also was uncertain about being in a relationship as a whole.

        I’m currently super busy grinding for a CollegeBoard CLEP exam so I can skip a class, and have other passions I want to put more time toward my martial arts training, planning events for my martial arts club, and actually setting aside time for a fun side project I’ve wanted to do for years.

        I felt I almost had to ask her out or I’d be betraying myself, I felt like I couldn’t forgo the opportunity or I’d regret it, so I’m kind of happy it’s no longer an active choice I have to make. I can step away from her and focus on my passions for the Summer.

        @Mr. Monk Maybe that’s a good way to look at it. I’m still the same dude that broke 30 days not too long ago.

        Brother you did a magnificent streak, I want you to know that. I struggle to get rid of porn, I'm only abstaining from M and O. And YOU were abstaining from PMO like a chief.

        Like @David3xR-UK and @Halim212 said, 45 days is an amazing feat. You've done it once and you can do it again and then go beyond!

      Today's urges are hell, thought the 50% mark (45d) would help me but this borderline hurts. This does hurt. Sometimes my will to live wanes.

        Remember it is not YOU who craves PMO. Your urges are feeling 'hungry'. Sooner or later the urges will get the message and back down. Until then, keep struggling bro

      A minute ago I made a post in my journal outlining a change in my goals. No dating in 2023. Self-improvement all the way through.

    1. No Porn.
    2. No Masturbation.
    3. No Dating Apps.


    1. Porn fucks up anyone’s head.
    2. Masturbation leaves me content, but fucks up my baseline and stops my movement toward women.
    3. Dating apps make me a slave to my phone. The fragmentation of my attention is killing. It tugs and tugs at my needs for love until I masturbate.

    I will satiate my human need for love not with masturbation, but with time forming deep connections with people of my choice.

    Porn fucks up your mind.

    It matters not if I’m unable to use dating apps at peak times like the start of Summer or the start of the semester. It only frees me up to get stronger in other ways as opposed to my competitors. Whether this is by abstinence, by educating, or by getting ahead in my career. I am getting stronger, which will ready me for stronger mates. Better than those on dating apps.

    Yes, you will be needy for love and intimacy. But if you’re going to substitute it, don’t sacrifice your vitality in the process. In fact, strengthen your vitality in the process. Fuck masturbation. Be around people of your choice.

    Remember the times you woke up early, remember the time you’ve spent in the gym, remember your cold showers.

    YOU ARE IN-CHARGE OF YOUR BODY.

    A Thought On Dating Apps.
    The girls I ask out in-person are usually also on dating apps, or have been on dating apps which affects how they interact with you even as you approach them outside the app. You have a higher success rate outside the app, but more faster shots on the app.

    I say you pick one way, shoot a ton of shots in, but in your desired demographic. Like if you’re shooting a ton of shots in-person and you’re a nerd, do it at a nerd club. My thought process is changing, especially since I make money now. I have a few grand saved up and will continue to make money even if I have to find another job. And I don’t have to worry about rent & food because my parents are covering it while I’m in college. I acknowledge my privilege. But with everything in mind (money flowing in, no need to spend it, I’m young so good time to invest in myself, I’m ahead in classes so I will have the time until December in college to spend with girls.) so I can if I pay $170-200 for 12 months of Tinder & 6months of Hinge. With all the features I’m looking for. With it being significantly less frustrating. I honestly see it as a drop in the bucket and an investment in myself. I have one more week of classes/exams/projects but I’ll be more free after that. And the same applies to many other students at my university if not after next week then a week or two after. I say take advantage of my situation (money, ahead in classes, more time, stability, external forces of everyone else having more time for relationships) and start using dating apps after next week.

    Could be a terrible idea. But I’m not afraid to give it a shot. As long as I keep my No Porn No Masturbation streak. I think it’s a good chance to develop myself.

    I still have the audacity to ask out girls in the real world and I have in the past. But I think I should allow myself to adapt to the fact that
    1) dating apps exist, hot girls looking for a real relationship aren’t unlikely to be on them
    2) i’m a relatively decent looking guy now. I can be smart about taking a few pictures over the next week
    3) i have money to spend on this endeavor. More money than time.
