    Good evening NoFappers
    This will hopefully be a light hearted thread focusing on real personal challenges, hobbies and challenges.
    I have realised that through NoFap I have spare time. And i'm really pushing for a personal challenge.

    I'd love to hear about any of you hobbies; however crazy. Sports events or marathons etc you have done lately.

    Or businesses you have set up. I'd love to hear from nofappers about other focuses that are really helping them.
    Please feel free to add as much detail as you would like.

    Take Care and good luck Fapstronauts.

    Hey man, glad you are doing well and nearing your goal!

    I've started a couple of habits:

    - Been coding for the past month - currently: website, simple css/html
    - Been doing 30 pushups for the past 30 days as well
    - Been doing lumosity for over two months now
    - budget tracking // money management -- doing this daily is a waste of time and can get pretty addicting. So I check weekly to make sure I'm on target with my small goals.

    To me this is pretty special and an achievement of their own, because I always gave up any of these. Or needed 100+ people telling me "good job! keep going!" now all I need is a little green tick mark from Lift lol. Due to these small little habits, there is no more fear of learning anything. And coding isn't this impossible degradable task but a fun activity that will provide extra income in the near-future.

    Hobbies:

    - I'd say for now coding, and DuoLingo once or twice every week (learning French for fun)

    Challenges:

    Gotta get a better job and lose fear of applying to jobs.

    I want to make going to the beach a hobby, since that is my zen and would help me spend less time just lulling in the internet.

    I want to go back to the piano and teach myself.

    I want to make it a hobby to keep the creative side of me up to speed, and not just the analytical.

    DonkeyKong22. I would love to share my thoughts with you. 2015 is an important year for me. After a severe back injury and having went through depression to the point where I was on anti-depressants, I have gone through a lot of hardships. Now that that things are much better, I want to focus on finishing school for the new year, but at the last time make it the best one I've ever had. I've been part of a club for different cultures at my college and I love it. I'm so comfortable that I've talked to some of the girls there, so there is room for potential friendships and possible relationships as well.

    Since my back is better, I've been doing yoga(I used to do MMA) and it's so new to me. I am determined to get back in shape by doing yoga and eventually doing more intense versions of it like power yoga. I'm very goal orientated and I thrive on physical fitness. It's one of my greatest assents. I feel like yoga is underrated, but it has a lot of mental and physical benefits.

    Back to school again. I'm doing a huge campus wide project with a program called Active Minds: a non-profit organization dedicated to help students with mental health disorders to succeed in college. I've been working on this project for 2 years and I've met a lot of people along the way. It's a great passion of mine and I feel this activity will get my mind off pornography and anything that's related a little more.

    I also have a new job offered to me in the summer time that involves landscape design and horticulture. I love plants: flowers, trees, shrubs, and so on. I'm learning the aspects of designing a landscape for residents with all of these components. I also get to learn about gardening and how to sell perennials. I'm really a nature person and I love animals which is where the job site is at. It's near a wooded area. I know this year will be great and I hope the same for you!!
