    As strange as the title may seem, It's True
    We go Through our lives thinking that we're afraid to fail , but is that really true?
    I think it's not in all the cases, sometimes we're afraid of getting better , we're afraid to put on the hard work knowing that it's a Universal fact that if we work harder we'll achieve what want, but first we should ask ourselves, Do we really want it?
    -people fail because they don't wanna make sacrifices for the thing want, They're not really that interested, but when they fail they are discouraged & always complaining about it although it's a universal fact that you've to give something in order to get one, There's nothing for free in this world as said in Latin "quid pro quo" (This for that)
    -I've never been that kind of motivational man who just says some big words that are not appliable in this world, I'm just a man of facts. and I'd like to quote the physics law that says "Energy is neither created nor destroyed, but changed from one form to another"
    -So Let's look subjectively at porn, maybe what we have is not an addiction, but a minor problem that creates a magical land that we like so we sacrifice our life for that, maybe we're not that true about wanting to give it up because we're afraid of becoming better, we're afraid of showing the world what we can do & how we can change it when we focus on our goals
    Maybe we're afraid of the endless possibilities of whom we could become if we eradicated that habit out of our lives

    Very interesting and accurate assessment of a mentality all of us endure at some point in our lives and struggle to overcome. I still have a ways to go in being free of the self doubt and fear of success that still burdens me, but nofap and other positive lifestyle changes have made me eager to reap the spoils of my efforts. I have come so far and am actively pursuing getting my advanced diploma and forming a relationship with a girl. I know what I want in life and how to get it. After nofap I have been making a conscious effort to achieve success long term and it has already started to pay off. Great thread - dont fear success the only person getting in your way is you. Its not about resources, its about resourcefulness.
